0 Guest Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 PRICELESS this is it, exactly and for dancer:you still seem backwards, here it is: An oxymoron, I always thought (pretty straight forward: I always thought priceless was an oxymoron) Extremely invaluable (priceless means invaluable) But I would think not.

(it would appear by the "price" and the "less" put together that it should mean worthless) ahem you need the opposite of priceless worthless!!!!! because an oxymoron, you always thought. means extremely invaluable, but it is not. priceless IS not an oxymoron not even close the oxymoron in your riddle is that we have to think THE OPPOSITE so worthless two opposites yours is clever but this is super duper clever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 do i need to simlify extremely invaluable IT IS NOT so it is not priceless it is worthless and oxymoron is two words that are exact opposites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(not that it isn't but that it seems that it should not be) And I know it is not an oxymoron, but "I always thought." See it this way. As a child, I looked at the words priceless and worthless as aughtin' to be worked out the same (worth+less=can't buy it for a penny)(price+less=can't buy it for a penny either because you can't put a price on it) Now, this is right, you can't put a price on it, because it's SO valuable that it can't be bought. But, seeing it through "my childish eyes" you would think it wasn't worth anything. Do you get that at least? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 I'm sorry, I take your compliment and thank you kindly. It's just you made my riddle feel "worthless" and upside down to me. It's my own fault, really. I should be able to take it when someone sees the fault in my riddle, it's just really hard for anyone to take, as I'm sure you know very well. I apologize myself.ok but this was me excited at a great thing and you wont even look at it fine get along with me again i'll find answers and NOT COMMENT WHEN YOU POSSIBLY HAVE THE GREATEST RIDDLE I EVER READ dropped kiss and make up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
