Based on the "I run but..." it's most likely a river, no?

True, if only they had let the GM finish the riddle 😔

Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.

  1. What is your name?

  2. What is your favorite color?

  3. What is the solution to the Hodge Conjecture?

[–] proton_lynx@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

What is you favorite color? Blue. No yel... Ahhhhhgh!

[–] Classy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Classy.
Living Colour.
I have no fucking idea (didn't say I had to provide a solution, just a reply).

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

(didn't say I had to provide a solution, just a reply).

I literally said "what is the solution to..." 🤨

[–] Fogle@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago (2 children)

You said answer these questions. The answer to the question is I don't know

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Ah fair enough lol

Flings himself off the cliff

Isn't that just a reply and not am answer?

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago (4 children)

I run but never leave your sight.
You can follow me if you think you're right.
Hold me closed to alter your voice.
You may pick me, but I'm yours without choice.

Edit: don't know how to do the spoiler that and don't want to spoil it for everyone else

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Here's a table of markdown formatting that Lemmy supports. Unfortunately, not every Lemmy client supports all of the formatting, meaning some people may still see the spoiler regardless.

Reminds me of Sad But True.

Unless it's nothing.

[–] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 13 points 11 months ago (2 children)

What have I got in my pocket?

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

A man. Crawls on their hands and feet as a child, then walks on two legs, then uses a cane.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

He was at the north pole.

Wait, no, he was in a plane and jumped to his death!

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No no no, it's all about airspeed velocity.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

What's your favorite color, though?

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Blue? No yell...

[–] Nastybutler@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (4 children)

What's green and red and goes round and round?

[–] rooster_butt@lemm.ee 13 points 11 months ago

Frog in a blender.

[–] evidences@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

Time, wait light, no a hole!

[–] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

A really really fast-moving light.

[–] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 2 points 11 months ago

Running around a black hole

[–] Rubanski@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

What's blue and goes round and round?

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (3 children)

This thing all things devours;

Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;

Gnaws iron, bites steel;

Grinds hard stones to meal;

Slays king, ruins town,

And beats mountain down.

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

Oh, you're talking about Targ the Ruthless! That dude is a beast!

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not unless it's also combined with a lot of time.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Also time. Answer is time.

Watch the sparrow falling
Gives new meaning to it all
If not today nor yet tomorrow then some other day
I'll take seven lives for one
And then my only father's son
As sure as I did ever love him I am not afraid

(Who am I?)
