I could just post the riddle by Epicurus, but I have no doubt someone has posted it already and I think it would be a bit inflamatory.
Nope. Not posted yet. Although i find it hilarious that its been over 2000 years since it was first posed. And there still isn't an answer for it. PWNED B#$%$@S.

Anyways.

Here's one.

Young i am tall.
Old i am short.
Of many colors i may be,
Sickly green i love to be.
Oft i gain scorn,
I hold sway over your porn.

Solve that.

Here's a riddle I found.

You hire a man to work for you for seven days. You have one bar of gold with which to pay him, segmented into seven sections. You must give him a piece of gold per day. If you can only make two breaks in the bar, how will you pay him?

My friend's boyfriend knocked this thing out in a heartbeat; when I heard the answer I was like "Ohhhh, it was so EASY!" But when someone can't solve a problem like this, it's because they affix limitations to themselves that aren't there. Which is interesting in and of itself.
Okay so I've got this, and I haven't looked at other posts yet. I'll check to see if my opinion is already stated or not.

Doesn't the riddle say you already have 'one bar of gold with which to pay him, segmented into seven sections'?
Therefore, you already have seven sections. So there isn't a need to cut the bar.

Unless of course, you'd cut yourself some :DD

My last ditch effort to take down a fucking bastard helicopter in Bad Company 2:

"Quick! Use the power of physics!" Where I then lob a hand grenade in the air.

Coincidentally, I actually managed to take out a Black Hawk earlier today.

If you are 8 feet away from a door, and for each step you take you come 50% closer, how many steps does it take to reach the door?

The answer isn't that obvious, but it's
Infinite steps

What's a pirate minus the ship?
What's an anteater plus a large mutant ant?
What's domain, domain range?
Two balls, minus one?
How do you trace a scatter plot?

If there's a fat guy in a pastry shop with a twenty dollar bill and he's ready to buy,
in order to predict his volume change you need to know the value of pie.

And there's a metal train that a mile long and at the very back end a lightning bolt struck her,
how long til it reaches and kills the driver, provided that he's a good conductor?

And if ten percent of men are gay and twenty percent of men are Chinese, what are the odds that a men chosen at random spends his free-time and mealtime while on his knees?

And if Kim is half as old as Bobby who is two years older then twelve year old Tori,
for how many more 30 day months will their threesomes be considered statutory rape?

Assume you are 10 feet from a door. Your first step is 5 feet from the door, your next step is 2.5 feet from the door, your next step is 1.25 feet from the door, and the pattern continues. How many steps will you take before you reach the door?
Infinite steps. You can never, ever reach the door. I mean, you could if you decided to stop taking steps half that of the one before, but for the purposes of this - you'd never reach it.

Sorry. You're less than a foot away, but not what i'm looking for. The first two sentences are very important. Less so the others. Thats your hint for your first failure.

A creative homeless guy
An ironic way to die
A kid with too much in his pants
6 titles at the Tour de France
Give the pencil to Micheal J. Fox
Not a question.
Wut.
That would depend on how they like it.
Depends on the state.

Bo Burnham FTW.

What is Santa Claus multiplied by "i"?

NEVER! Unless of course you reach out with your hand

P.S. I'm sure this riddle would leave Godron Freeman speechless.
