    My mind was once quite blind to literal meanings and different sides to different stories etc, but now, as you can see, and even if you looked in the MORE RIDDLES! thread in FF7 you'd be able to see that I have a wider range of viewing now.

    Challenging the mind is the best thing you could do. It makes you more aware and smarter at the same time. If you are ignorant to complexity then you will always remain ignorant unless you make an effort to look beyond the lines.

    That's the only way you'll ever be able to understand a wider range of knowledge than you already know.
    Thingfish and Lenna are my inspiration in these riddles. MORE RIDDLES is closed now, though.

    I totally agree with you Lenna. Thinking exercises the mind. I love thinking things, except Sudoku's. I hate them. Though I'm amazing with crosswords and codewords
    Suck at cryptic crosswords though....
    Anyhoo! Not Malaris? Here's another thought by me.

    I'm a master at arms
    So I was right with the lots of arms.

    I'm as smart as can be
    I'm still thinking that this could mean clothing, or the way the answer talks or acts.

    Though I have no good looks,
    Literally? So this line implies the answer is uuuuuugly.

    You can sure fight with me.
    Once again. Dunno whether it's with or against. I'll go with against, because there's a higher chance it IS against.

    Again the Void - In this sense Smart doesn't mean Smart. You're actually looking for alternate ways of saying smart. That's another big hint for you. As for the ugly thing, this thing isn't necessarily ugly, it just doesn't have good looks ugly is usually a term for other beings .

    Thanks for the insults. As you might be a good riddle-solver I believe you have no right to give me this wave of verbal confrontations as I have done nothing to you but give you my opinion on the riddle, not your person. I have made no atacks on anyone, just your riddle...

    Critisizing a good, well written riddle is attacking someones knowledge and intelligence. Riddles are supposed to be challenging and hard, as riddles are not like General Knowledge / Forward answering questions. You are supposed to think in order to solve a riddle. A riddle is words twisted to reveal a different mind and manner of thinking. If you don't like a riddle that is doing what it's supposed to, and critisizing it, is attacking and insulting the riddle-maker. You are the only one complaining about the riddle. I am not insulting you, I am only telling you the literal truth of the matter.

    For other uses, see Riddle (disambiguation).
    A riddle is a form of word puzzle designed to test someone's ingenuity in arriving at its solution.
    <--- see, your view of a riddle is silly. Maybe you should look at a dictionary next time. This isn't a quiz.

    How about Zidane

    1.He's a thief, so good with his arms
    2.He's Quick-Minded. Anotherway of saying smart
    3.He's a thief, so no-one respects him
    4.He fight's all the time

    Still in reference to smart. This word has nothing to do with intelligence.

    So you say I am insulting you but you are not insulting me? I think you should lookat your post once again. Again, I am not saying I hate the riddle. Do you ppl even read the whole post or do you pick out things that you just want to see? I have tried your riddle so you can't say I am not trying or I am too lazy. Your even making my post into a riddle by twisting my words, like their is a deeper meaning. I suggest you just drop it.

    Heero, just shut up. If you don't like the riddle stop posting on the thread.

    Lenna, alternate ways of saying smart? Do you mean that in "Go look in a thesaurus" kind of way?

    What are you guys doing? Huh? THE SAME THING!

    Could smart be referring to a smart ass? Someone who always talks back or corrects everyone? So the person is a real smart aleck? I'm guessin on this one.
