There's a new fad about making threads with riddles! So just put 'em here. Ta-dah! No "-GRY riddle" discussion here. And annoy everyone with your difficult riddles! :D OK, first riddle, coming up:
There is a one-story house. It is blue. The walls are blue, the ceiling is blue, the floor is blue, the furniture is blue, the fridge is blue, the kitchen(stove, fridge, etc.) is blue. The bathroom(toilet, sink, shower, etc.) is blue. Go on as long as you like. What color are the stairs? :confused:

Ha ha! I like riddles too. I often go to Webriddles.com (http://www.webriddles.com/) when I'm bored(careful with the other popup) and...rarely guess them...

Here's a very simple riddle. If you can solve it, then you might want to make your riddle posts the same style.
When you post a riddle, how can you put the answer into the same post but not make it obvious unless voluntarily revealed?
Enclose the answer in a COLOR=White tag.
If you can't find the answer, maybe clicking and dragging your mouse over will help you out.

A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50." The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less. In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?
The man did exactly as he said he would and wrote "your exact weight" on the paper.

Two fathers and two sons go fishing, and each bring back one fish each. No more, no less.
The total number of their fish (fishes?) is 3.
How is this possible?

There are a series of five books on a bookshelf making an encyclopedia set, the number on the spines of each book showing they are displayed in order 1-2-3-4-5 from left to right.
Each book is precisely 3cm thick and the covers are no thickness at all. A bookworm eats a straight horizontal line through the pages, from the first page of book 1 to the last page of book 5.
How long is the line that the bookworm has eaten through?
It's not 15cm but 9cm, because in the bookshelf the last page of book 1 is on the left and the first page of book 5 is rightmost.
