Three Foot Ruler
Where can you find a three foot ruler?
At a yard sale. How did another joke riddle get in here?
I Can Cry Without Eyes
I can cry but I have no eyes.
I can fly but I have no wings.
Wherever I go, darkness follows me.
What am I?
A cloud. Crying is rain, they fly in the sky and darkness follows because they block the sun.
Come For a Ride
I go up, but at the same time go down,
Up toward the sky and down toward the ground,
I’m present tense and past tense too,
Come for a ride, just me and you.
What am I?
A see-saw.
Four Legs and a Foot
What has four legs and a foot, but can’t walk
And a head but can’t talk?
A bed. The foot of the bed can’t walk and the head of the bed can’t talk. It’s probably a good thing that beds can’t walk and talk. Just think of where they’d go and what they’d say…
Cut One Off And I Become Stronger
I have three letters. Cut one off and I become stronger. Cut two off and I become ten. What am I?
A fox. Removing the f leaves ox, a strong animal. Cutting off the fo leaves X, the roman numeral for 10.
Doesn’t Fly Even With Wings
I have four wings but cannot fly,
I’ve never laughed nor will ever cry,
As much as I’d love to leave the ground,
I toil away with nary a sound.
What am I?
A windmill. The typical windmill, like the ones Don Quixote chased, have four vanes or sails. You might even say they look like wings. Windmills don’t have emotions, so they can’t laugh or cry. And since they don’t have actual wings, windmills don’t get off the ground. A well-oiled little bugger won’t make a peep.
The Densest of My Clan
You ride on me every day but barely notice,
I’m hot and cold at the very same time,
I’m the densest of my clan,
And my first three help you enjoy music.
What am I?
Earth. Most people don’t stop to think that they’re hurtling through space on a huge planet. At any given time the Earth has burning hot magma and freezing arctics at the same time. The Earth is the densest planet and the first three letters, “ear” help you listen to music.
