FOR RIDDLERS

RIDDLE LENGTH
  Riddles cannot be more than 7 full lines in length.  If a riddle you wish to post is more than 7 full lines, you can erase unneeded parts.  Alternatively, you could post a video showing the riddle, or post it as an attachment.

ANSWERS
  You must post the answers in two or three days, and with spoiler tags.  You must also post a link to the riddle in your post.  The post must be clear that it is an answer.  If the correct answer is given in a reasonable amount of time, you do not have to post the answer.

HINTS
  If you want to post a hint, put it in spoilers tags, and make sure the post is clear that it is a hint.  "Hot" or "cold" hints are in this category.  A "hot" or "cold" hint is where you say that the answerer is getting close to the answer ("hotter", "warmer"), or getting further away from the right answer ("colder").

Hope you have a great time!  :)

What is "it"?


I am a rock group, and I have four members, all of which are dead, and one of whom was assassinated.

What am I?

Wow. I'm impressed, Ark.
That was awesome. When it started, I thought the answer was going to be 'dead'.

As for the rock group question, the answer is the Beatles. John was assassinated, George died of brain cancer, Ringo doesn't legally exist, as his name is Richard Starkey, and Paul is dead.

If that's the answer, then that's a terrible riddle: just because "Ringo Starr" isn't legally Starkey's name doesn't mean that Ringo Starr doesn't exist–– it's a nickname. And even if "Ringo Starr" didn't exist, that wouldn't make him dead, just nonexistent. Paul McCartney isn't dead, no matter what the rumor says, and I wouldn't even call the Beatles a "rock" band. They were pop rock at the time and are pretty much just pop now.

BiosPark is right, only he forgot to capitalize... oh well, silver star anyway.

Was that intentional? Cause that's how I jokingly spell it sometimes.

Why can't you take a picture of an Indian woman with hair curlers?
Sometimes they wear the hood covering their hair, but that's kind of stereotypical, since a lot of them don't


And, what's the Krabby Patty's secret formula?  aiwebs_008

Plankton!


Okay, not really, but that's what Plankton "discovers" in that one ep.

Hair curlers can't take pictures, you'd need a camera.
yeah

You win. Here's your cookie.
I love riddles. See if you can answer the one below;
Poor man has it, but the richest man in the world wants it.
Brave man is afraid of it, yet a coward isn't.
If you eat or drink it, you will die.
You can see it in the dark with your eyes closed.

That's one of the older ones in the book.

Nothing.


I've heard extended versions starting with, "What's more powerful than God, more evil than the devil," etc., but imo those clues make it a bit too easy.
Yep, old alright. It's still a classic.  :)
Here's an original one I did a few months back.

Push me down, And I'll jump back,
I'm the first one of the quartet.
I have three children of my own,
After them, I'm departed.
You might go higher after all,
if I'm under your feet.
In few weeks, again, it's fall,
After first, we meet.
A trampoline? I really don't know, thats my best guess.
