[Souper]

It's solid. RIC won.

[LtHeckard]

He was kinda close, But you could ask the wrong genie by accident, seeing as how both genies are identical.

[LtHeckard]

I can provide the answer if this riddle is too hard.

[LtHeckard]

Oh wait, crap. You're right. took me some time to process that, sorry.

[Souper]

I give up.

RIC, your turn.

[LtHeckard]

Sorry RIC, I kinda brain farted and confused myself. Go ahead, it's your turn.

[Red Iron Crown]

I'm curious what your question was going to be, LtHeckard.

Why are manholes circular? What other shape also has this property?

[LtHeckard]

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.

[Red Iron Crown]

What was your answer to your riddle with the genies? I know mine isn't the only solution.

[Guest]

You know what? Let's do a different riddle.

[LtHeckard]

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.

[Guest]

Nope. Never doing that

[Lord_Potato]

Heh, good one, Helix.

Is it a towel?

[cziken20]

There was a riddle like this already?

[Souper]

Lord Potato gets it right with towel.

[Lord_Potato]

Yourself, but not yourself.

The world, but not the world.

Indeed, the thing this is,

Is naught but light and shadow.

[BadLeo]

It's... the reflex.

[cziken20]

It's probably reflex.

[Red Iron Crown]

I think it's a mirror.

[Lord_Potato]

Nope to all.

[Helix935]

Yourself, but not yourself.

The world, but not the world.

Indeed, the thing this is,

Is naught but light and shadow.
