Okay so i have a cool riddle for you. You have to find out why this thing happens. You can ask me questions, but i can only answer yes or no.

A guy lives on the 6th floor of a building. On sunny days he goes to the 3th floor by an elivator and walks the rest. But on rainy days he goes straight to the 6th floor by the elevator. Why does he do that?

I will never tell u if u don't guess and no spoilers:>

I know.

He's a midget. On rainy days he has an umbrella so can press the button for the 6th floor with the umbrella, but on sunny days he doesn't have an umbrella so can't push the 6th floor button.

Even if it wasn't THE answer, it was a pretty good answer nontheless :)
Maybe even better than the right answer, who knows :)

EDIT:
Didn't see the above post, was it the right answer :O ?

Good thing we have Jamza to solve such riddles so the rest of us can use our huge brains for something more important! :)

Solve it? Hah! There's two options:
A) He either knew it beforehand. Or
B) He googled it.

I believe in the latter. There's no way he could guess it legit. :P

I am actually very good with riddles. I do a lot of problem solving so I get used to looking for the little things (like an umbrella).

The trick is not in geography, i could have said Texas and Mississippi river, it doesn't matter.
What matters is that the question goes Why can't the man who LIVES
meaning he is alive, that's why he can't be buried :lol:
