Please point out the "them" in that poem.

I was recalling it from memory. I made an error. My mistake.

You are in a room that is completly bricked in on all four sides, including the ceiling and floor.
You have nothing but a mirror and a wooden table in the room with you.
How do you get out?

Call for the Kool-Aid Man.

OddjobAbe 06-25-2009 08:36 AM

Oh, yeah!

You shatter the mirror, sit on the table and slit your wrists/throat with the broken shards. Your body may be in the room, but you aren't. You're dead.

"Magic mirror on the wall how the fuck do i get out of this room with nothing but a table"?

MA 06-25-2009 08:49 AM

those last few answers made me laugh. its actually;

You look in the mirror you see what you saw, you take the saw and you cut the table in half, two halfs make a whole, and you climb out the hole.

THAT IS A FUCKING STUPID ANSWER.
sorry, i didnt look up the answer before posting it. what a load of bullshit.

Take one out and scratch my head, I am now black but once was red.
what am i?

this time i've looked at the bloody answer.

I heard a variation of that with the prisoner being given half an orange every day.

OddjobAbe 06-25-2009 08:54 AM

Hurrah for The Prisoner!

Wings of Fire 06-25-2009 08:59 AM

Oh yes, and the ending to that TV show was nearly as opaque as MA's riddle.

*Brain prolapse*

i know, it took me a while to get it. then again i'm not the sharpest tool in the box.

i've disregarded it as shit.

A match?

MA 06-26-2009 07:45 AM

hoo har CORRECT.

What kind of room has no windows or doors?

this is a crafty one.

OddjobAbe 06-26-2009 07:47 AM

A useless room? A mushroom? A ghost's room?

MA 06-26-2009 07:55 AM

your right with 'mushroom'.

I have holes on the top and bottom.
I have holes on my left and on my right.
And I have holes in the middle, yet I still hold water.
What am I?

OddjobAbe 06-26-2009 08:07 AM

Either the sea or a sponge. And that's "you're" as in "you are".

MA 06-26-2009 08:18 AM

oh shit. i thought i was good at the your/you're difference.
anyway 'sponge' is correct.

It has no top or bottom but it can hold flesh, bones, and blood all at the same time. What is this object?

dont take it too literally.

Mojo 06-26-2009 01:01 PM

Skin?

abe is now! 06-27-2009 04:46 AM

I say skin too...

OddjobAbe 06-27-2009 08:15 AM

If this is correct, I'm going to flip a lid. He said not to take it too literally, so I refrained from saying "skin".

MA 06-27-2009 08:16 AM

it isnt skin, dont worry.

abe is now! 06-27-2009 09:15 AM

It's clothes?

Wings of Fire 06-27-2009 09:34 AM

A naked person.

MA 06-27-2009 11:28 AM

none of them. it isnt living.

actually i'm beginning to question the answer as being a bit, you know, shit.

OddjobAbe 06-27-2009 12:25 PM

Is it a glove? Or a sock? Or underwear?

Nate 06-27-2009 05:51 PM

Some sort of cookware?

MA 06-28-2009 05:55 AM

bugger it. i've come to the conclusion its a really crap answer, so i'll tell you and discard it.

it was 'a ring'. balls, i know. here's a better one;

You can't keep this until you have given it.
what is it?

a secret?

OddjobAbe 06-28-2009 08:34 AM

A promise?

MA 06-28-2009 09:13 AM

and OddjobAbe is correct with 'promise'.

What book was once owned by only the wealthy, but now everyone can have it?
You can't buy it in a bookstore or take it from the library.

OddjobAbe 06-28-2009 09:45 AM

Cheque book? Yellow Pages?
