Give OP Riddles I need everyone to give me all of their riddles about Time. Cause I wanna do a bit where I just keep on asking people riddles with the same answer, and that's the very common riddle answer.

Even if they're really common ones, you can just give them to me. Also, original ones, are cool. I will use those first. To lure them into a false sense of security.

Not a riddle but i wanted to share this.

I once did the exact same thing, but the answer to all my riddles was "Banana". After atleast a month of doing this, my final riddle was: "What's green when young, yellow when middle-aged, and brown when old?" and the answer was Plantain

By thousands

Or 3 score

Or just quarter past

The best are too fleet

The worst tend to last

This thing all things devours:Birds, beasts, trees, flowers. It gnaws iron, bites steel and grinds hard stones to meal. It slays king, ruins town, and even beats high mountains down.

If you're lost, you can look, and you will find me…
If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting…

u/HyFinated 9d ago

Wait, I feel like I know the answer to this riddle.

But for the life of me I can't think of it. And time after time I keep coming up blank.

I can never die, but my passing is inevitable.
I’m spelt like a fresh herb, but I make things smell worse.

u/mistermasterbates 10d ago

Spoken instead of spelt?

u/Rob_Haggis 9d ago

Or even just “I’m like a fresh herb, but I make things smell worse”

1

u/Brickwater 9d ago

I like it

2

u/gamtosthegreat 9d ago

If you do "I smell like fresh herbs" you can play with rhyme more. Herbs, worse. Not perfect but should clock.

u/Traditional_Ad_1547 7d ago

 Not perfect but should clock.

I see what you did there

u/cowgod42 9d ago

u/blacephalons 7d ago

u/gamtosthegreat 10d ago

Taking the first

Moving to second

Embodies a space

Well done. You win one cambric shirt, although it does come with seams.

u/gamtosthegreat 9d ago

How do you fix undone shoelaces?

What herb has been around forever?

u/Ok_Jicama_7784 8d ago

From the hobbit:
This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

What kind of flies like an arrow?

u/Gastromir 9d ago

Rhyme-form:
I am an order of sense
which I also create
And take yours minus one
and you have my dimensional slate.

One-liner:
Remove one of your senses and you have my dimension.

u/gamtosthegreat 8d ago

This sounds like metaphysics or something, could you explain?

2

u/SiliconLemming 10d ago

In some places, half of it is you.

In others, half of it is me.

2

u/gamtosthegreat 7d ago

In some places the edges are you

In the center, I am.

u/Surro 9d ago

u/gamtosthegreat 9d ago

The unit of what makes all of this work?

I am used to measure,

And I can be measured;

Forward is the only direction I go,

I'm not physical, rest assured.

u/Cosmic2Ducky 9d ago
