Jwin, one of your riddles stumped me and my friends, and obviously many others here. Can you help us understand it? Quote:
I can be big and I can be small. Got it, fans can be different sizes. Quote:
Most likely I'm in a case in your house. Like a box fan is in a case, got it. Quote:
I can also live comfortably on a farm. How does a fan live comfortably on a farm? Quote:
The water suits me fine too. How does water suit a fan fine? Quote:
When you need me I'll be there to do all the work,
unless I'm made cheaply, then you only get what you put in. What do you "put in" a fan that comes out if it's made cheaply? Quote:
But don't worry, I'm always praised for my loyalty. This was explained as "sports fan", so I get that one. Thanks in advance! I'd like to stop racking my brain.  |

No problem Cheezyfryes Quote:
How does a fan live comfortably on a farm? It's referring to the wind turbines on a wind farm. Quote:
How does water suit a fan fine? Boats use propellers underwater. Quote:
What do you "put in" a fan that comes out if it's made cheaply? It's referring to paper fans, because anybody can make one with just one piece of paper folded a couple times, but to use it you have to do all the work yourself. Can't just plug it in and turn it on, etc. |

I was stumped with that one too.. I thought it was a pocket (big or small, does your work for carrying things and does so loyally, A bin for storing grain on a farm, most suit cases have pockets, air pockets in water, and a cheap one won't give you back what you put in)
His other one got me too, I was sure it was a stick (walking stick for transportation, not a fan of canines, lying on the ground with friends, lots of uses, etc.)
Oh well - maybe next time :)
And because I didn't get a chance to say so earlier, sorry for your loss GoldenChest. It is never easy to lose someone; thankfully we always have them with us in your heads and hearts.

Not yet - but mail across the border can have a lot of deviation in terms of how long it takes. No worries :)
