Wholly Unreal

Something wholly unreal, yet seems real to I
Think my friend, tell me where does it lie?

In your mind.

Round Like An Apple

Round like an apple, deep like a cup,
yet all the king’s horses cannot pull it up.

A well.

What Does Man Love More Than Life?

What does man love more than life
Fear more than death or mortal strife
What the poor have, the rich require,
and what contented men desire,
What the miser spends and the spendthrift saves
And all men carry to their graves?

Nothing. This one is similar to Greater than God, but different enough to include it here.

Everyone Is Doing This Same Thing

Right now everyone in the world, no matter where they are, is doing the exactly same thing. What is it?

Getting older. Sad but true, and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop it. If you thought of breathing, it’s not entirely accurate because not everyone takes a breath at the same time. Living is an arguably suitable alternate answer as well.

Four Walls and a Bird

A man walks out of a house that has four walls all facing north. A bird walks past him. What kind is it?

A penguin. If all four walls face north the house must be at the southernmost point of the earth. Really, any native antarctic bird would work.

This brain teaser is quite similar to the guy whose house walls face south and sees a bear, then you’re asked the color of the bear. The bear would be white (a polar bear) as they’re the only bears indigenous to the north pole. A lawyer would claim it’s all circumstantial evidence and the bear could be an imported brown bear. The lawyer makes a valid point.
