With the head of an elephant,

and the tail of a monkey,

My touch can be deadly if you're unlucky.

I'm an excellent swimmer,

But if you wet me I'll holler,

And racing me would be pure folly.

a sperm?

Erin
11-01-2007, 11:52 AM
Sperm was my first thought too. :lol:

ZoNeSeeK
11-01-2007, 04:24 PM
hahah

no, its not sperm - i didnt realise they could be deadly :)
well, unless you had great aim and some fucking buffed PC muscles

Jon
11-01-2007, 09:28 PM
I take it then that Jelly fish and squid are wrong.

ZoNeSeeK

...and is there a certain method to solving these type of riddles?

ZoNeSeeK

A stingray?

No, sorry tel

Nope, this is just a generic riddle

Telynn
11-04-2007, 07:20 PM
It's always good to throw out any ideas, even if you can't get them to match the whole riddle. What's fun is when others take your ideas and work with it and the solving becomes a group effort.:clap: (I say this because I so rarely solve them on my own.)

Jon
11-04-2007, 11:30 PM
I'm just stumped Tel!

Hint: abstract wordplay could help

Telynn
11-05-2007, 07:08 PM
I still liked stingray... :(

ZoNeSeeK
11-05-2007, 10:16 PM
Stringray doesnt have the head of an elephant though

Brice
11-05-2007, 10:17 PM
Manta Ray?

ZoNeSeeK
11-05-2007, 10:34 PM
I don't see the correct answer

Brice
11-05-2007, 10:34 PM
Then change the damn answer. :angry:




:P

ZoNeSeeK
11-05-2007, 10:46 PM
remember abstract wordplay could help

Telynn
11-06-2007, 04:05 PM
And in the other thread you said it wasn't abstract. Make up your damn mind!!!

ZoNeSeeK

These are ones i did for tdt.net a couple of years ago, its good to recycle :)

Jon
11-10-2007, 10:33 AM
yes... I have considered recycling some of mine.

ZoNeSeeK

ZoNeSeeK

Nope, but good guess though ;)

Big hint: The first two lines arent necessarily referring to the animals themselves.

i think this one is about you :)

ZoNeSeeK
11-21-2007, 07:53 PM
Nope :)

Ruki

you lie :P
okay if it's not a tiger or a crackhead i give up.

ZoNeSeeK

sorry evil pea

Telynn

Ok.... using your hint.... let's see if I'm on the right track.

Head of an elephant could mean that what/who ever it is has a very good memory?

Tail of a monkey could mean...ummmm..... it can hang from stuff?

I like the elephant bit.

The tail could also mean useful, agile, graceful...?

ZoNeSeeK
11-23-2007, 03:07 PM
Good idea but its on the wrong track :)

Telynn
11-23-2007, 04:13 PM
So this thing really does have the head of a elephant?

ZoNeSeeK
11-25-2007, 07:55 PM
in a way ;) i posted another riddle which may jog your memory in how to answer this one

Ruki
11-26-2007, 12:12 AM
is it a crocodile?

ZoNeSeeK
11-26-2007, 05:52 PM
Nope, sorry :)

Kevin

Cut off my head and see me drone,

Cut off my tail and I can digitally clone,

Cut off both and tie around,

As a whole its a mismatched sound.

Pretty sure this is the other riddle by Zone he was talking about, they both have similiar starting lines. The answer to this poem was discordant. Basically I think Zone broke down discordant as I've done and then each part was a clue, and then a final clue for the whole word.

Dis=female fertility=cloning?? (not sure)
Cord=tie around
Ant=drone

It would seem that he's used a similiar pattern for this poem, it being two parts, one to do with a elephant and the other to do with a monkey. He's added an extra three lines to do with the word as a whole. I think.

I hope this helps someone out there because I still have no idea...

Telynn
11-26-2007, 08:57 PM
I'm wondering if that is the riddle he was referring to, because this one isn't in the same format. I think he is just laughing at us. Would be a Zone kind of thing to do.

ZoNeSeeK
11-27-2007, 10:29 PM
No kevin did pick up the clue - but you're a little off with "dis" - even though "dis" is the head of "discordant", i was actually after disc.

it is an animal is it not for it swims and "hollers" unless your giving something inanimate "human/animal" qualities.

Jon
12-04-2007, 01:14 AM
Mayhap "Hollers" is a rube way of saying "hollows." (A small valley between mountains.)

ZoNeSeeK

You are on the right track :)

ZoNeSeeK

a crank engine?

ZoNeSeeK
12-04-2007, 03:40 PM
I don't see the correct answer

Telynn
12-04-2007, 07:22 PM
Does it 'have the head of a elephant' because it has a trunk?

ZoNeSeeK
12-04-2007, 07:41 PM
No

Electricity is a very good answer, but I dont see how it follows the pattern Zone gave us. Or the monkey/elephant part. Its perfect for the last 4 lines though. :thumbsup:

Head of an elephant - ele
Tail of a monkey - y

Those two clues sort of fit the "Chop off my head" riddles.
