<p>Another riddle (made up on the spot):</p>
<p>Will do work, will travel
And many a string can I unravel
You’ll never hear the sound of a gavel
If you are dealing with me.</p>
<p>I can shape glass, and I can split wood
I touch things quicker than ever you could
Though I am brighter than the forces of good
who I touch, may never see me.</p>
<p>This will either take you 10^-2.3 seconds, or at least five minutes. Cheers!</p>
<p>Fire? tenchar</p>
<p>Good guess, but no.</p>
<p>Is it lightning?</p>
<p>%#$@ you. The last time I asked a poem-riddle, no one guessed it.</p>
<p>Now explain why it is lightning.</p>
<p>Well, lightning itself doesn’t produce noise, and it occurs at rapid speeds. If it comes into contact with trees, it can initiate a fire. In addition to those aspects, it’s bright.</p>
<p>On the contrary–it produces enough noise to drown out the sound of the average gavel. It SPLITS trees and forms glass from the silica in sand. </p>
<p>Well done!</p>
<p>I thought that it solely initiated noise when it came into contact with an alternative object. I was under the impression that noise solely applied to thunder.</p>
<p>^It still makes noise in space, you just can’t hear it because there is no air.</p>
<p>I accidentally stopped lent a week early :b I thought it ended yesterday, but it really ends on easter 
ha</p>
<p>…and then I just chundered EVERYWHERE!</p>
<p>
Yes, the interaction of lightning with air produces noise. Still, no thunder without lightning :)</p>
<p>^Non sequitur. Of massive proportions.</p>
<p>“All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, to make it possible.”
<p>I suppose so. Thanks for the clarification.</p>
<p>^^^ Eh, sort of a non sequitur but also an in joke that I though only Millancad and I knew about although now it seems as if prole2 has stepped aboard the chunderbus.</p>
<p>I’ve heard (read?) the joke, but I don’t understand it perfectly :p</p>
<p>^ It’s from a youtube video called “Gap Yah”</p>
<p>I like it better without any sense of continuity from the previous statements. Completely different approach from, for example, “that’s what she said.”</p>
<p>^ Eh I think is needs some context at least enough that it does not appear a non sequitur.</p>
<p>This one time, on my Gap Yah, I was in Africa, walking on the beach. I saw this starving woman, with flies all around her. She looked into my eyes, and I into hers, and it was like we had this connection, despite all our differences. and then I just CHUNDERED everywhere.</p>
