Based on the "I run but..." it's most likely a river, no?

Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.

  1. What is your name?

  2. What is your favorite color?

  3. What is the solution to the Hodge Conjecture?

[–] proton_lynx@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

What is you favorite color? Blue. No yel... Ahhhhhgh!

[–] Classy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Classy.
Living Colour.
I have no fucking idea (didn't say I had to provide a solution, just a reply).

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

(didn't say I had to provide a solution, just a reply).

I literally said "what is the solution to..." 🤨

[–] Fogle@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You said answer these questions. The answer to the question is I don't know

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Ah fair enough lol

Flings himself off the cliff

Isn't that just a reply and not am answer?

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I run but never leave your sight.
You can follow me if you think you're right.
Hold me closed to alter your voice.
You may pick me, but I'm yours without choice.

Edit: don't know how to do the spoiler that and don't want to spoil it for everyone else

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Here's a table of markdown formatting that Lemmy supports. Unfortunately, not every Lemmy client supports all of the formatting, meaning some people may still see the spoiler regardless.

Reminds me of Sad But True.

Unless it's nothing.

[–] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What have I got in my pocket?

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

A man. Crawls on their hands and feet as a child, then walks on two legs, then uses a cane.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

He was at the north pole.

Wait, no, he was in a plane and jumped to his death!

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No no no, it's all about airspeed velocity.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What's your favorite color, though?

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Blue? No yell...

[–] Nastybutler@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (4 children)

What's green and red and goes round and round?

[–] rooster_butt@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

Frog in a blender.

[–] evidences@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Time, wait light, no a hole!

[–] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A really really fast-moving light.

[–] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 2 points 1 year ago

Running around a black hole

[–] Rubanski@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

What's blue and goes round and round?

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

This thing all things devours;

Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;

Gnaws iron, bites steel;

Grinds hard stones to meal;

Slays king, ruins town,

And beats mountain down.

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Oh, you're talking about Targ the Ruthless! That dude is a beast!

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not unless it's also combined with a lot of time.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Also time. Answer is time.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Watch the sparrow falling
Gives new meaning to it all
If not today nor yet tomorrow then some other day
I'll take seven lives for one
And then my only father's son
As sure as I did ever love him I am not afraid

Who am I?
