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

The doctor was a woman.

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 3 months ago

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

[–] Classy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months 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 3 months 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 3 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months 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 3 months 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 11 points 3 months 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.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What's your favorite color, though?

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Blue? No yell...

[–] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 13 points 3 months ago (2 children)

What have I got in my pocket?

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months 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 3 months ago

He was at the north pole.

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

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months 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 19 points 3 months ago

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

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

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

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Also time. Answer is time.

[–] Nastybutler@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (4 children)

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

[–] rooster_butt@lemm.ee 13 points 3 months ago

Frog in a blender.

[–] evidences@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Time, wait light, no a hole!

[–] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

A really really fast-moving light.

[–] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 2 points 3 months ago

Running around a black hole

[–] Rubanski@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

What's blue and goes round and round?

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months 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?)
