Can you solve this??

Hey,

I got a nice riddle for ya'll. Seems easy at first, but actually it isn't!

Moved it here as this perfect for it.

[yavnush]

i have 3 riddles

1. steals an event
or even a mood
reveals the truth
or shattes it

2. the stack just might
be sent all over
full of what's new
yet it's nearly obsolete

3. though i should be unique
you've made most of as the same
i would be stronger
if my characters were stranger

K , I'll just paste this gem I found through GOOGLE .

A man walks up to you and says - "Everything I say to you is a lie."
Is he telling you the truth or is he lying ?

The answer is pretty logical .

Pffft... I made a bet with Crimson how long it would take you to guess the right answer and I just lost
I was thinking grave but it's the same thing. Good job. Your turn

[Adventure]

A coffin?

[Lilliputt]

Thank you
I will post something simple:

This place is dark and short of space yet the inhabitants never complain. What can it be?

[Adventure]

Yes, Lilli was first. I didn't refreshed the page before I made that edit.

Congrats Lilli.

[Crimsonthread]

Lilli has the answer I was thinking of! Good job!

EDIT: Oh, your word works, too--it's basically the same thing. But based on edit times, I think Lilli was first.

[Lilliputt]

No... not a smile, Adventure. Here is the answer

I PROMISE you

[Adventure]

A smile?

Edit: Your word?

[Crimsonthread]

Not the answers I was looking for... Although I suppose they work. This is something less tangible.

[Adventure]

Your hand? Your heart?

CrimsonThread , can you please help me in explaining why 13 gloves is the answer .
I am not really doing a good job .

Sure. After 12 gloves, she could have pulled out either all left-handed gloves or all right-handed gloves of both colors. The 13th would have to match with something, then.

Yay! I actually didn't thought that was right. It was the first thing that came to my mind.

Alright an easy one:

There is a house with 4 walls. Each wall has one window. When you look outside through the windows you always look at the south. How is that possible?

I always heard this one told like this: "You are in a house with 4 walls, with a window in each wall. Each window has a southern exposure. As you look out a window, a bear walks by. What color is the bear?" A bit trickier, because the bear part distracts people from the southern exposure part.

Hmmm.... let me think of another one.

Here we go. Even if you give this to someone else, you can still keep it. What is it?

[Adventure]

Adventure, are you taking left/right handed gloves into consideration?

I think she would have to pull out 13 gloves.

LOL, no I obviously didn't. Thanks Crimson.

It must be 13 in then indeed.

In worst case scenario she would pick
- 6 black left handed gloves (or 6 black right handed gloves)
- 6 brown left handed gloves (or 6 brown right gloves)
After that she always get a match.
