Riddle Me This…Time!

.

I scour YouTube for funny videos and keep all kinds of funny “miss steaks” so I can share them all with you each Friday for Friday Funnies.  Well, this week my son was reading a book and ran up to show me this line:

“One week from the day before the day after the yesterday that comes three weeks before six months from six weeks from now minus 49 days plus five tomorrows and a next week.”

Just to have a little fun with language/communication…who can figure out this riddle…when would this be?  Post your answers here as a comment.  Show this to your smartie pants kidlings and see if they can figure it out.

Another humor-filled Communication FUN Friday from your friends at Art of Eloquence.com!

Riddle: What is it?

This week’s Friday Funny is a riddle.  See if you can figure it out:

It gives me orders or tells me nothing.
It butters me up or it insults.
It  has a point yet it makes no sense.
Uses too many words or also none.

It’s an annoyance, but also funny.
“I” cannot do it, yet “it” will not stop.
I try to stop it, but it keeps coming.
I tire of its cunning.

What is it?


You can post your answers here or post this riddle and your answer on your own blog with a link back here.  I’ll post the answer in a few days. Check back to see if you were right.
