Take away my first letter, and I still sound the same. Take away my last letter, I still sound the same. Even take away my letter in the middle, I will still sound the same. I am a five letter word. What am I?

This thing all things devours,
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers.
Gnaws iron, bites steel,
Grinds hard stone to meal.
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

What is it?

Correct! It's a riddle from the hobbit!

An alarm clock! They certainly don't escape my scold, I hate them...

This isn't a rhymey one, but...
A bus driver is going down the road, and there are a few red traffic lights.
He goes straight through them, very naughty!
A policeman is there, and he sees the bus driver trundling through these lights.
He just waves, and doesn't tell the bus driver off.
Why?

[2772968] adoptapet (US1) [None] :: Jan. 2, 2016, 9:01 a.m.

The red lights are for the cross traffic.

Buffalo have more hair on one side.  Which One?

the outside

A window cleaner is cleaning a window on the 25th floor of a skyscraper when, suddenly, he slips and falls. He has no safety equipment and nothing to soften his fall, and yet he is not hurt. How can this be?

It may only be given,
Not taken or bought,
What the sinner desires,
But the saint does not.

What is it?

Correct. My answer is, forgiveness, or happiness?

Mine is,
What is something to everybody and nothing to everyone else?

Our mind

Mouth-less but I will tell you a name that is not mine,
I will show you the years I have seen but I have no eyes,
Memory I have but I have no mind.

A gravestone. I always found that one slightly depressing.

A traffic light. It has three “eyes” (the red, orange and green lights) and the leg is the pole holding it up. Many people beg the light to stay green as they’re approaching.

[2777605] RunsWivScissors (GB1) [GB1] :: Jan. 5, 2016, 7:08 a.m.

Candle?


Play my music if you dare.
Turn my crank although I'm square.
Stand back or get a scare
when you see my surprising glare.

 What am I?

[2778617] adoptapet (US1) [None] :: Jan. 5, 2016, 3:02 p.m.

A jack-in-the-box

What has the largest eye in the world but cannot see?

A storm?

Two bodies have I, though both joined in one, the more I stand still the faster I run.
What am I?

[2778776] le dumb retard (US1) [None] :: Jan. 5, 2016, 4:28 p.m.

hmm... i guess n hourglass?? cz it has two parts both joined and whn it stands the sand goes faster

When my first is a task to a young girl of spirit,
And my second confines her to finish the piece,
How hard is her fate! But how great is her merit
If by taking my whole she effects her release!
