Original Riddles with Answers
Good Riddles, Hard Riddles, Thinking Riddles, and Riddles to Make Your Brain Hurt!
Original Riddles, hopefully Good! Yes, I've personally written all these riddles, and I'll bet you can write a riddle too - add it on this page if you can!
You be the judge. Be gentle, it's my first time. Ok, yah sure I write poems and song lyrics but Riddles are my latest fun.
Do you remember "Carnac The Magnificent" on the Johnny Carson show, well tackling the "creation" of riddles has taken on the same concept: Start with the answer, then put together a riddle.
As the riddles enter my noodle, I just add them on this page. Couldn't stop making up riddles one day, then thought 'why not create a page where I could compile them' ! Genius, I know.

Here are THE ANSWERS! - You won't find them on this page!
Good Luck!
Thinking Riddles
"I had to think to write them...I think?"
RIDDLE ONE:
They belong to you
They belong to me
They can make you feel happy
or make you feel blue
They never end
until the day you do?
RIDDLE TWO
They say it can come from your ears
it can also generate fear
some people love to do it
indirectly some chew it
it's not welcome in a house
it's quiet as a mouse
What, pray tell, can it be?
RIDDLE THREE
I keep stuff in
I'm usually on top
I can sit to the right
to the left
or the middle
I'm used to go pow
Can you figure me out now
or do I have you baffled
with this very heady riddle?
RIDDLE FOUR
People love to get good ones
but the bad ones do come
you're guaranteed to get some
so take them and run
they will get things done

It's not soft riddles, it's hard riddles...
RIDDLE FIVE
It flattens things,
and without it,
it flattens you
It's in food
It's in buildings
It's in bridges too
Is this too hard?
or too soft for you?
RIDDLE SIX
I'm a girls name
sometimes you break me
sometimes you chew
I'm sour
I'm salty
yet also bad for you
but most people love me
they truly do,
RIDDLE SEVEN
You write them
you get them
you give them
you hate them
you love them
you dread them
you need them
but you probably never
ever want them
RIDDLE EIGHT
Wear me in any kind of weather
Shine the Sun on me
and I'm gone forever
Salt me and I disappear
Yuk! Just keep me out of your beer
Women love me
and so do men
especially at that time of year

right to heart

When grownups do this it may annoy
but is usually cute by a little girl or boy

it can even be triggered when someone sings
don't get started
you may not stop
and the full blown version
can hurt your side a lot
RIDDLE TWELVE
Sometimes People are
but that's not nice to say

Sometimes Riddles are

Puzzles, Riddles
Puzzles and Riddles...Huh??? I'm still confused?
RIDDLE THIRTEEN
I can do this to you
even with this riddle too,
It's what's left when something's cut
that grows from the ground,
not totally wasted
can be a place to sit on or around,
they're everywhere too
I really don't think this ones hard
in fact, you may already have one
in your very own backyard
RIDDLE FOURTEEN
This can make your head spin
thinking this way or that
this can make you wonder,
but relaxation can help you combat
this is an annoying emotional state
that can make you feel like a big dingbat
but once you get your head together
you'll feel clearer that's for sure
it's not a sickness, or an ailment,
or anything that needs a cure

Hi Merry, thanks for giving them a try, didn't take me that long, the darn things just roll out of head like the sayings I write for cards lol it's a gift? quirk maybe.
This was so much fun. Still thinking about some, but trying not to peek! It must have taken a long time to put it together--thanks for sharing the fun!
- Author
@bravewarrior, lol well that's still better than some! thanks for giving them a try :)
You're giving me too much credit. I answered 9 out of twelve. Of those one was right on and two could have been redeemed as contenders.
- Author
@bravewarrior lmao! hey you did pretty good to get so many!
This is genius! I stopped trying to answer at number 12 and of those, I could only come up with 9. I'll have to come back later. Hell, who am I kidding? I'm gonna go into the link and cheat!

@MelaniePaige13: gosh I laughed when I read this - yes go ahead and get some payback :)
Very well done - loved it.
Love this lens, I got riddle Eighteen correct, though it took me a few extra reads to understand the part where we run, haha. I know these are your riddles, but could I test someone at my gym with a couple? I will tell him where I got them of course (I always give credit where credit is due :) ). He gave me 2 riddles, both of which I couldn't get, and I had about a week and a half to try to figure them out. I googled one, the other he told me the answer to. I would really like to pay him back for that mental torture, and these would be perfect :)
I love riddles; they make you think, then when you know the answer, it's so obvious.
Amazing lens, thank you for sharing :)

Easy way to figure out which side of your brain is dominant is to point to a stationary object, then close one eye if you finger is straight with the object you are that side dominant. When you switch eyes you will see your finger is off. Just saying.. Lol great lens!
