This riddle is driving me crazy.

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
21

forsee anywhere

22

The letters stand for words:

example- 26 L of the A = 26 Letters of the Alphabet

23

Four Carats in an Engagement Ring

24

4 Corners in an Entire Rectangle

I don’t care if that’s what the original constructor intended or not. It works. Anything to make it go away.

25

Four children in an Episcopalian romance

26

4 corners in every rectangle ?

27

So what was the answer to that other one? What was that, 14 k in something or other?

28

These pretzels are making me thirsty.

Sorry, this just came to mind right now when I saw the thread title.

Carry on.

29

What’s the origin? I Google’d this and so far the only reference in Google, with these exact terms, is in this thread.

30

Ha Ha, I Googled it and the only result was this thread.

I found it hilarious.

31

This was what I was going to say.

(that or 4 Cuties in an Erotic Reverie)

32

4 Corpses in an Emergency Room?

Other than that, I got nothin’.

33

Here’s the thing- there’s really no guessing about these things. If you get it right, it’s an AHA!

However, usually what happens is that the OP has got the wording very slightly wrong. In this present case, since the OP is fixating on Emergency Room, he very likely changed the “a” to “an” without thinking about it.** Siam Sam**, this is likely why we never got a answer to the other “riddle”- the OP never had a source, and he likely got the “riddle” wrong.

In the future, what I think we need is a link or the source for the original. What surprises me is that they almost always have the answer right there.

OP- what’s the source and why was there no answer?

34

4 chicks in an eagle’s roost.
4 chops in an emu roast.

35

37

^ This.

38

Oh. In that case, my vote is for:

Four corners in an empty room.

Although I can’t remember the letters in question now, I know I looked it up back then and found it in lists of similar puzzles. It seems to have stumped everyone universally. Wasn’t it from one of those college-entrance exams? The GRE or something like that?
