Meiyjhe's right. "A Riddle" would have been the answer I was looking for, but both is possible.


And nope, it's not that poorly constructed.

You already said it yourself, if you could use "Nothing" you could also use "Something" which kinda contradicts itself.

Upon further thought 'something' would not work as an answer. 'Nothing' still works though, as described previously.
It's just a terrible riddle honestly.

New one:
A man lives in a flat. In that flat, there are 20 stages, but luckily for the man, there is an elevator. The man lives on the 16th floor, but each time he wants to go home, he only goes to floor number 14 by elevator, the last 2 stages he goes by stairs. Why would he do that?

HINT: He is incredibly lazy, it has nothing to do with being sportive or something

is he very small so that he can't reach the 16th button and walks instead of getting a chair or something to reach it?

Dude... if you complain about your answer not being right because it's not what riddle the asked for...

I know what kind of stuff you write elsewhere, but...

You must be THAT much fun at parties.



Why dont you go and complain to Meiyjhe too?

I mean why wasn't the answer to his riddle sth like:

"Because the elevator only stopped at certain floors."

Would also be a total legit answer.


If you can't have fun in a fun thread you shouldn't be here.

I have a riddle for you:

Walk on the living, they don’t even mumble. Walk on the dead, they mutter and grumble. What am I?

CORRECT!
Then you should also realize the fault in the riddle you posted :)

Don't expect too much from the Banana, I don't :P
Then again, most riddles are terrible.

Oh, I'm having plenty of fun :)
"I sexually Identify as an Attack Helicopter. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of soaring over the oilfields dropping hot sticky loads on disgusting foreigners. People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m ****ing ******ed but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache” and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege. Thank you for being so understanding." - Guuse

First thought: a ghost/specter/poltergeist?
