Default Ready set go! The riddles thread

Alright!


Its about time there's a riddle thread here. So basically I'll start the game and the person after me will answer the question. The person who gets it right- makes another one, and so forth.

Two people get it right? the person who got the post earlier (timewise) gets to pop the next question.

Since its online, its ridiculously easy to cheat. So please don't - it'll spoil all the fun. Be honest, have fun.

And lastly- Please - no easy ones!

When posting responses, please make use of spoiler tags
([ spoiler=answer] --insert answer here -- [/spoiler] and take the space out to make

The winner of each riddle will be notified by PM.

edit: Winners- please PM me with the riddle+answer. And I will edit it in the first post for ease of reference

You should post a copy of the question here as well.

(and it should be assumed that I won't be participating alongside, because of the pm's )
