Riddles

A round manhole cover cannot fall through its circular opening, whereas a square manhole cover may fall in if it were inserted diagonally in the hole. The existence of a "lip" holding up the lid means that the underlying hole is smaller than the cover, so that other shapes might suffice. But another object that has this property.... I have no clue whatsoever.

Oh sorry, yeah. the genie riddle. Ask Genie #1 what Genie #2 would say, then do the opposite. You are in essence asking in one question of a truthful Genie what the untruthful Genie would do, or vice versa, so you must receive an untruthful answer.
