More crappy riddles and word games!

 

First one is to do with some flies.

 

 

 

The Flies

 

At night, you hear this above your head:

 

Bzz... bzzz...... bzzz..... bzz.. bzzzz....... bzz.

 

How many flies are there above your head?

 

 

 

(Guess and I'll tell you if you're right. PM me if you've figured it out. Will post more examples as things go on.)

2 ( random : p)

 

wrong :<

[nevernown]

Quantum mechanics tells me there are infinite to none flies, unles I properly observe them.

programming tells me, they are all the same class, and therefor might be referring to the same object...

Common sense tells me I should just go sleep.

 

So, I'll settle for none, so I can sleep in blissful ignorance~

[Horn]

I think it's three flies.

One goes bzz, one goes bzzz, and one goes bzzzz.

[DarkPrince]

There's no flies, it's the mosquitoes that are bzzing o/

Or it's what Horn said

flies buzz too! don't discriminate against other insects :<

 

 

The answer is eight.

 

 

Another example:

 

You're sitting at a table in a restaurant, and you hear a buzzing noise behind your back.

 

bzzz.... bszzz.... bzzzzssss.......... bszz.... bsz.

 

How many are there now?

[DarkPrince]

Either 10 or 11 flies...

Or two mosquitoes o/

[Horn]

Three flies.

[Viscoun]

I'll now start the second riddle.

 

The Train

 

I took a train yesterday. It departed from Detroit and arrived at Estonia.

 

Why is this?

[DarkPrince]

What about the previous question? O:

[Horn]

I'm getting the feeling that we're not going to be able to figure out the answer until we get some more clues...

Of course it could probably just be googled, but that'd be no fun. ;o

[Viscoun]

What about the previous question? O:

 

both riddles can be done simultaneously. it's all part of the whole trick. o/

 

Three flies.

 

wrong.

 

 

There are five.

 

 

During my in-train meal, I hear some buzzing behind me:

 

Bzzz.... bzzz.... bzzz.... bzzz.... bzzs.

 

How many flies are flying behind me this time around?

I now take the train from Kensington to Egypt.

 

There are flies flying in front of me, but I can't see them because I'm blindfolded for some reason or the other.

 

Bzz... bzzz...... bzz......... bzs........
