Silence?

Correct.

I'm thinking of a word. The first two letters of this word mean a male, the first three letters together mean a female, the first four letters mean a courageous person, and the whole word means a courageous woman

AHA! I'm happy I got this so quickly. I didn't know it before. The word is:

Heroine!

Edit: Ninja'd. But I got it before I saw Frustration's post!

What appears once in a minute, twice in a moment but never in a thousand years?

The letter M.

 

Good job, your turn.

[The Bookwyrm he/him]

Uh.....Hang on.....

All of the riddles I know are really long ones that take too long to answer. It's the ones where you just as yes or no questions.

But here's a short one that you probably already know:

If an airplane crashes right on the border between the U.S. and Canada, where do they bury the survivors?
(This one's pretty easy, and I'm sure you've heard it already.)

You don't, they survive.

The long ones are fun though.

I have heard of this one but I forgot the answer.

They don't

Yup, you're both right.

I am always leaving but I never get further away, What am I?

Dang, I was hoping that one would last more than one guess.

[The Bookwyrm he/him]

I thought the answer could have possibly been "yesterday", but that didn't fit.

Here's one: Two mothers and two daughters walk into a hamburger shop. They each eat one hamburger. However, the total number of hamburgers eaten is three. How is this possible?

Technically it did haha. As I typed I thought of it

Five people were eating apples, A finished before B, but behind C. D finished before E, but behind B. What was the finishing order?

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

C A B D E

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Yep, that was an easy one

You start at home and go a block, then you turn 90 degrees left and go another block. You turn another 90 degrees to the left and go another block. You turn another 90 degrees to the left and when you reach home there is a masked man waiting for you. Why is there a masked man waiting for you? 

I will only answer yes and no questions.

Are there other people living on these blocks?
