CAN YOU SOLVE THIS RIDDLE????

[own0rz]

Give me an x, I'll stand to face you.
Give me a cross, I'll turn my back on you.
What am I?

Does anyone know the answer??? It's been driving me nuts for days.


:frown:

 

[cdan]

A vampire?

 

[dafatha00]

Why would a vampire face someone with an x?

 

[own0rz]

heh that was my first guess too...

 

[ManSnake]

I think the answer maybe a word.

 

[bunker]

I'm giving this a bump cuz I've been thinking about it for half an hour now and it's starting to bug me.

Someone answer!

 

[cmdavid]

hehehe... i think i figured it out... is it





























































































hehehe.. just kiddin...

 

[Pretender]

something + 'X' = word meaning to face something
something + 'T' = word meaning to turn away from something

find something


that's what I get out of it. Solve for something (a word probably).

 

[TechnoKid]

X usually marks...the spot....and a "t" or cross does what..

Thats all I see so far.

 

[J3anyus]

Malcolm X.

 

[ManSnake]

How did you get Malcolm X??

 

[Pretender]

<< X usually marks...the spot >>

No X spots the marks

 

[J3anyus]

<< How did you get Malcolm X?? >>



To be absolutely 100% honest...I don't know.

One of my friends asked me this riddle about 2 hours ago and I answered with vampire, he responded with &quot;Malcolm X&quot;. I think he was just on drugs or something, so don't expect me to be right

 

[mrCide]

that friend of yours must be one really cool guy

 

[dafatha00]

i'm not sure the cross necessarily represents a t....hmm

 

[own0rz]

argh this is driving me nuts...:|

 

[J3anyus]

<< that friend of yours must be one really cool guy >>



Yeah, must be. I met him through my friend Dave

 

[Yo Ma Ma]

Where did you get this riddle from? That might lend a hint. Or not

 

[ManSnake]

I think he got it from a guy named Yo_Yo-Ma

 

[own0rz]

A friend of mine told me this riddle. I begged him for a hint and all he could say was not to look at the characters in the riddle as letters but as symbols..man, a lot of help he is...

 

[Yo Ma Ma]

LOL, I see.

I wonder if it might be something to do with the needlework know as &quot;cross stitch&quot;? I don't really do it but I'm pretty sure on the front of the design you have the little X's, and on the back you have the thread crossing over like / / / ??

 

[WasabiCat]

hmmm... i'm thinking x is a multiplication sign, and cross is +, an addition sign
hmmmmmmm....
