40kendgame Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 There is a man in a box with a table, a bed, a calender, and a hole in the side of the box that he can barely fit a finger through. What does he eat (Solved), what does he drink (Solved), and how does he get out (Solved!)? Solved by Tkill93 and One World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tainted Wisdom Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 You never said that it was a closed box. So he climbs out to get out, and get his food and drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypony Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 A better question would be how did he get in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40kendgame Posted July 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 1. A box is normally closed, so it should be thought of as that.2. He lives in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tainted Wisdom Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Okay, He eats food. He drinks water. He gets out by walking out the front door.(By that I am thinking that the box is a metaphor for a house) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypony Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 2. He lives in the box. That still doesn't explain how he got into the box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willieh Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 He eats his poo, drinks his piss, and gradually makes the hole bigger so that he can get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Poison Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 He eats his poo.D: I didn't do it, I swear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40kendgame Posted July 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 @ *.Willieh.*: No. That is not only incorrect, but it is DISGUSTING!!! Neg Rep for the disgusting factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tkill93 Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 He uses the dates from the calendar to eat, the springs from the bed to drink :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mehmani Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 He uses the dates from the calendar to eat' date=' the springs from the bed to drink :/[/quote'] So you've heard this one before, I presume?D: You did it before me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40kendgame Posted July 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 2 Reps for Tkill93! That is correct!(Edit: You will have to wait until tomorrow to receive your reps as due to unusual circumstances I have already given my max amount of reps for the day. Don't worry, they will come.)

Felix Culpa Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Would the answer be a play on words? I remember a riddle like this from a long time ago... Well if so...: He looks through the whole and sees what he saw. He takes the saw and cuts the table in half. He takes the two halves and makes it into one whole. He uses the hole to climb out.

ayy lmao Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 [align=center] He gets the table, climbs on it and jumps out.[/align] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Culpa Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 The riddle is the same, whether or not he has the bed. Though, the hole can be replaced with a mirror Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Necro Pheonix Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 i say to get out he eats away at the box.(wait is it cardboard?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Culpa Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Well, let's see... If I was close with that. The bed and calendar are unimportant, I presume. So, if he looks out the hole to see what he saw. He takes the saw and saw the table in half. He combines the halves to make the whole. He then uses the hole to crawl his way out... I don't think I can think of anything other than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40kendgame Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 You Got It!!! Congrats!!! 2 reps for you!Again, you will have to wait until tomorrow as I can't give reps right now (Reached the limit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Culpa Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 He can't puncture the wall with a saw. That's not waht it's for. He can't fit it through the hole, because it is too small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
