WRONG!

You're JoeFahey1 now?

It's obviously wrong. The OP says the only thing in the room is a mirror and a table. There is no saw. And cutting the table in half obviously doesn't spontaneously create an exite from a completely enclosed room.

A riddle doesn't have to make sense. It's a play on words.

It most certainly does have to make some sense. If this is the correct answer then it's just stupid.

it's a riddle.

And your point? Can you just add things arbitrarily to the riddle in order to create a non-existant solution? If so then any riddle is solvable in an infinite number of ways.

Maybe that's how you do it on the Chalupa forums...

No, it's a riddle. They usually have strange answers, that don't really make sense unless you think way outside the box. Like this one.
