1. A man receives what seems to be a package bomb, from an unknown sender, forwhy “BOOM!” is written on a box. But, he is not afraid one bit, that is to say, he is certain (right away) that there is no bomb inside. How so? 2. What did a man do when the Moon fell on him? 3. What did a tree say to a dog that was urinating on it?

Since enough time has elapsed for me to reach the following conclusion, it is but logical to assume, that you haven't a clue, summertime aside which, to species like Borg, is but overwhelmingly irrelevant. However, by utilizing the little grey cells, I am more than certain, that you will be able to solve one offered riddle, at least. Logic dictates itself, since it is above all else, but also the previously mentioned reasoning, backed up by empirical knowledge about Wu riddlers who do not lack imagination likewise deducting skills in order to solve almost any riddle which might arise.

1. If it says 'boom', then it must have already exploded. Or, because It says 'from your secret santa' on the sender label, and it is common knowledge that he likes practical jokes. 2. put it back up on the display 3. If you will pardon a slight vulgarity, then I suggest the answer is: Piss off.

| Not exactly what I had in mind, but the intended answer is cast in the same mold, perhaps, that is to say, there is no technocracy involved. on Jul 2nd, 2018, 12:03am, dudiobugtron wrote: 3. If you will pardon a slight vulgarity, then I suggest the answer is: Piss off. |
| I like this answer! However, not at all the expected answer which is drastically different and a lot more rational likewise realistic. on Jul 2nd, 2018, 12:03am, dudiobugtron wrote:1.

| No. Not at all. Not even close. You lose, Fido! So just try again. Btw, the answer is totally realistic; so no leprechauns or elves.

2. He lit a lamp, so that he could still see after the moon fell 3. Nothing, as trees cannot talk to dogs 1. "not a bomb" is also written on the outside.. Or, The package is partially see-through, and only appears to be a package bomb until you look inside. edit: I thought of another possible answer for 1. There is no way the postal service would have delivered a package that appeared to be a package bomb, without first making sure it was not a bomb.

1. The box was on wet ground. When he lifted the box, the bomb fell out from the bottom. 2. He heard the Moon say "One small step for moon, a giant leap for heavenly bodies." 3. "Don't tell me it is raining."

1st and 2nd guess is off. The 3rd riddle is already solved, but thanks for offering an alternative.
