You say to one of the twins, "If I ask the other twin which path leads to the other side of the mountain, which one will he say?" (Could be a she either!) Then go along the other path.

The truth-telling twin will guide you the wrong path, because that's what his liar twin will say.

The liar will point you to the wrong path, because he will lie about what the truthful one will say.

So that question guarantees you will get the same, wrong answer from both twins.

EDIT: Technically the truthy twin is still giving you the right answer! I meant, you're guaranteed to find out which is the path that gets you lost, and then obviously you'll know the right one.

I'll give you it clooneman...

You would ask the two twins "what will the other twin's answer be?"

The truthful twin would know the other twin would lie and so would say the wrong side.

The lying twin would know the other twin would tell the truth and so would lie and say the wrong side also.

So both twins answered the wrong side, knowing this you would go to the right side

Oksy, this one is stupid. Really stupid.

You're in a foreign country with a death sentence hanging over you. The king tells you you have to prepare 100 pieces of paper, 99 of which have the word "Death" on it and 1 of which has the word "Life" written on it. What do you do to guarantee you pass?

It's a stupid answer, sorry...

Nope... Might I add that you're picking the piece of paper randomly, and you won't be able to see them

The answer is stupid!

I'm afraid this riddle is so awful that I'll have to tell you the answer and put it out of its misery.

You prepare 100 pieces of paper, and you write "Death" on all of them. Next day, you go before the king, pull a piece of paper out of a hat/bag to determine your fate... and eat it. Then you can proudly announce that as there are 99 Deaths still in there, it proves you pulled out the Life one.

I can't think of a good riddle, anyone wanna cut in ahead of me?

There is a mute person who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing one's teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done. Now if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses, how should he express himself?
