Riddles

Headphones?

[Starwhip]

Sound waves?

[GoSlash27]

Tellys, headphones, sound waves... all are related. I'm hiding in there... somewhere...

[Bill Phil]

Music? Music videos?

[JebNeedsHelp]

Your eardrums.

Page 3. Last repost and last hint.

I am instrumental in the process of listening to the musing of clowns about how I work.

I am...

Hint #1 The aforementioned clown musings regarding my methods are an internet meme.

Hint #2 The clowns in question, despite their title, are neither mentally unstable nor do they ride around on horseback meting out frontier justice.

Hint #3

"How do they work?"

It'll be a miracle if nobody gets this...

Best,

The image is called "magnets_c".

Couldn't possibly be magnets, now, could it? XD

[GoSlash27]

Yessir, it's Magnets. I probably shoulda picked an image that didn't have the answer in the filename

Explanation:

The Insane Clown Posse pondered how magnets work in one of their songs and it became an internet viral meme.

But you can't hear them ask the question without magnets, since their microphones and your speakers need magnets in order to function.

Starwhip's turn!

Whant a riddle while we wait?

[B787_300]

ethanadams... no

[Ethanadams]

Okay

[Starwhip]

*Bursts through swinging doors* Did I make it in time?! *panting*

Good!

Many small pieces,

Short, narrow, and long,

Shifted and shoved to form a tower so strong.

Soon to sway, lean,

It inevitably falls,

Many have seen me in shops and in malls.

If the first person to reply gets this wrong I'd be surprised.

[Norpo]

A wig?

EDIT: I thought of that in 5 second. Lego? Building blocks? Straw?

[Starwhip]

Well. Apparently it was more challenging than I expected.

Nope.

[Norpo]

Nope.

I'm absolutely terrible at riddles. Heck, you could ask for my favourite colour as a riddle and i'd stand there in shock saying "Uh.. PAPERCLIP? WAIT NO"

OH, a jenga game?

It seems to fit.. You can buy it, many pieces (narrow, thin, falling down)

[Starwhip]

OH, a jenga game?

I'd say BINGO, but that would be misleading.

You've got it, your go.

[Norpo]

I'd say BINGO, but that would be misleading.

You've got it, your go.

Oh dear, first time I've won a riddle.

Expect one tomorrow, and expect it to be easy

EDIT: Nevermind, sudden inspiration.

I support the whole structure.

But I am not a shell.

My partners are self-destructive,

and they need me to keep going.

But without them I would slow down,

and have no point.

My outer rim runs marathons,

Yet I stay in one place.

What am I?

Atoms? Electrons?

[Norpo]

Atoms? Electrons?

Nope. (I kept it kinda vague, I made 3 spare hints in case nobody gets it after a while)

[Red Iron Crown]

A spoke? Or wheel?

[Starwhip]

Hub of the wheel?

[Ethanadams]

Tidally locked planet

[B787_300]

a record? it seems that it is something that revolves becasue the outter portion is moving while the center is not...

[vexx32]

Hmm. So it spins in place, and is either circular or spherical (most likely).

Is it a cog (a gear wheel)? As in clockwork?
