If you have 4 apples and an orange then you trade 2 of your apples for 3 coconuts but then swap 2 of the coconuts and 1 of your remaining apples for 12 pineapples and give half of your pineapples away in return for 4 strawberries and 6 grapes. If you then traded half your grapes and three quarters of your strawberries for 20 raisins but had to give one third of them away, how many oranges would you have?
What am I? [Riddle]
I am greater than God and more evil than the devil
I am the cause of hunger
I am the wage of a person without a job

TIme has no hands, it is the instrument which calculates it that has the hands.
So meh!
More of a brainstormer question than a riddle (And supposedly the question asked in the 1 question Microsoft exam for employment):
4 People are out in the middle of a large countryside.
They need to cross a rickety rope bridge, but when they shine your torch around the entrance, they see a sign, stating the bridges expiry date (When it will collapse when walked upon), which just happens to be in 17 minutes.
It also states that it can only hold 201 kilograms of weight at a time, and they all happen to weigh 100 kilograms each. This means that only two people can cross at a time.
Being out in the middle of the countryside, they can't see anything except what they can see from the light of their single torch.
This means that someone will have to return with the torch after crossing, so that two more can cross.
THey must cross at the speed of the slower person, so that both get the advantage of the torch.
The times that each take to cross the bridge are as follows:
Person 1 : 1 minute.
Person 2 : 2 minutes.
Person 3 : 5 minutes.
Person 4 : 8 minutes.
THey make it across the bridge on time.
What order do they go in?

i didn't understand most of it but do you have anymore like that?
How'd you get it?
If you re-read it all with that in mind, it really does make a lot of sense.
One of my fave riddles that.
So no.
