0 Guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Something that is impossible to answer yes too such as, how much do you weigh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Shouldn't it be "are you dead?"??? Because you can't possibly answer that with a yes if you are dead! But you could say yes in your sleep... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 My question would be: Are you honest? Because if I said no, then I could be telling the truth or lying and saying I am honest (and the same if I said yes!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 If you are posed a question that does not have a yes or no answer, is it necessarily dishonest to answer with a yes? Secondly, is an honest person strictly limited to telling the truth. I consider myself a generally honest person, but that does not mean I never have told a lie.

0 Guest Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 If you are an honest person, what is one question you cannot answer with a "Yes" ? FYI, please post something with a HARDER answer. do you tell lies? Then you would answer no. Pretty much any question that is answered with a no would work in this case. However, I realize that I might not understand your concept here. Please let me know if I am missing something. Otherwise, this is no riddle.

Otherwise, this is no riddle. Hi mr _thinker... (may I call you 'the ' )? welcome to the Den! What tends to happen is that questions that don't 'grab you' after a while get a) forgotten b) ignored. This one is a couple of years old and the person who set it is probably long gone. Don't let that deter you....have a look at the more recent puzzles. There are some brilliant question setters in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 If you are an honest person, what is one question you cannot answer with a "Yes" ? This one. Although, technically, being honest doesn't mean that you cannot say the wrong answer unintentionally, or make up a stupid answer without the intention of properly answering the question. Those are my simple and more tricky understandings, which are both right, I hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 How about "How do you spell NO?", "How many roads must a man walk down before he becomes a man?", or "Do you really truly understand women?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 NAPALM71 Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 the answer which would be the right question, or vise verse, would be......ARE YOU LYING? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 bonanova Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 the answer which would be the right question, or vise verse, would be......ARE YOU LYING? True, but can anyone answer that question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mmiguel Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 True, but can anyone answer that question? try the question on me, i'll try to answer yes and we'll see if i am stopped lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rainman Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Maybe my name is Dead Lying Liar. Then if someone asks me, "are you Dead?" or "are you Lying?" or "are you a Liar?", I would have to say yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 phaze Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Warning: religious overtones (The official answer precluded certain points of view) If you were truly an honest man even death would not be able to stop you answering honestly Strangely I can only think of one such man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 joef1000 Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Will the answer to this question be no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 asdfghjkl127 Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 First of all, I would like to point out the double negative. Now enjoy your possible question. "Could you survive death?" Technically, it is not impossible for a 100% honest person to lie. They would no longer be 100% honest, but they would be before they answered the question. Therefore an honest person could answer "yes" to any question. But then again, I would say that it is impossible for any "human" to be 100% honest.
