Was on The Cosby Show twenty years ago along with the riddle about burying the survivors and the one with the mom not wanting to operate on her son. All in the same episode. Don't ask me the name of the episode though, for that I do not know (or care.)

How about this one.

What is greater than God, More evil than the old split foot, The poor possess it,
The rich don't need it, And if you eat it, you'll die?

Actually the answer is because. That was my friend's psychology final. He got an A.
One of my other psych major friends at another school was told to disprove a chair.

Here's one I don't think has been posted yet:

A blacksmith has 5 sections of an iron chain. One section has 3 links, two have 4 links, one has 5 links, and one has 6 links. He is tasked to connect the links into one long chain. It takes him 5 minutes to open a link, and 8 minutes to close it.

What is the fastest that the blacksmith can complete the chain?
40 minutes?

Still got a few more.

'Twas in heaven pronounced, 'twas muttered in hell, and echo caught faintly the sound as it fell. On the confines of earth it was permitted to rest, and in the depths of its presence there was confessed.

This ones pretty good.

I turn polar bears white
and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champane bubble.
If you squeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.
Can you guess the riddle?

A man was looking at a wanted poster stuck to a brick wall when a sherrif walked up and asked him if he knew who it was. The man replied "brothers and sisters have I none, but this man's son is my father's son." Who was on the wanted poster?

How about this...

Hank is on the 31st floor of an office building, looking through a dirty window, and all of the sudden, overcome with depression, Hank slides open the window and jumps through it. It's a sheer drop from the 31st floor to the ground, yet Hank lands completely unharmed.
How?
He's a window washer. Jumping inside.

He only has to open the three rings in the short link and then use those three to join the other four links together. 39 minutes.

Here's a riddle I read earlier today, but for the life of me can't remember where... hoping it wasn't on this site. :)

One Sunday the police get a call from a woman claiming her husband had been killed in his study. A detective shows up at the mansion and interogates everyone present.

The wife claims she had been asleep and had awoken to find her husband dead.
The butler claims he had been in the dressing room, shining shoes.
The maid claims she had been busy outside walking down the driveway to get the mail.
The cook states he was in the kitchen, preparing a breakfast of pancakes.
The gardner swears he had been out in the greenhouse, picking fresh vegetables.

After getting these statements, the detective immediately arrests the murderer. Who did the crime?
The maid cuz theres no mail on sunday
