Great minds and all that jazz.

Nope. Take it a lot more literally. What is scaffolding typically made of?

[Bullet Magnet]

Wooden planks and steel tubes...

[Hobo]

There is a room with two doors. Behind one door is treasure, behind the other is nothing.
There are two men in the room. One always tell the truth and the other always lies.
You don't know which man is which.

What one question can you ask to guarantee you the treasure???

Note- you can't ask 2 questions in one, for example: Which door is the treasure behind and what colour shirt am I wearing?

Open both the doors, and eat the men. Those shits.

[Bullet Magnet]

I agree. They have no purpose but to annoy.

[MeechMunchie]

Kastere, is it a Zimmer Frame? It's made of metal bars and supports old people.
EDIT: Oh, and here's another riddle. It's easy but I like it anyway.

"Tell me, tell me, what is that,
Over your head and under your hat?"

[Mac Sirloin]

I was thinking Crutches but a Zimmer Frame is closer to the mark. You win.

[MA]

i see what you mean, i was thinking too deep into it.

@MeechMunchie: hair?

also;
you throw away the outside and cook the inside,
then you eat the outside and throw away the inside.
what did you eat?

[Mac Sirloin]

A packaged cooked lemon.

Edit: got those last two mixed up.

Either Fresh Corn or Fish (Throw away the scales)

What kind of perv eats the outsides of Corn or fish?


Is the answer Pork, Molluck?

You remove the skin ( the crackling) you cook the pork, you cook the skin and eat both seperatly :

[MA]

Kastere was spot on, it was corn (as in corn on the cob).

The disintegrated bodies of the buried pharaohs fall through the crack of the top pyramid, and when the ashes reach the bottom of the lower pyramid, it's time to kill another pharaoh?

[Mac Sirloin]

Put the sand in an hourglass once they fall apart.

Artemis gets it.

[Bullet Magnet]

Give me water and I die
What am I?"

The Wicked Witch of the West.

And don't say that I'm not right.

[Mac Sirloin]

Give me water and I die
What am I?"

Fire.

[Wings of Fire]

"Give me food and I live
Give me water and I die
What am I?"

[ArtemisPanthar]

...you're all technically correct, but the answer to that particular riddle was "Fire", so Kastere got it. But those all count, I'd say.

[MA]

Kastere is correct with 'Q'.
