You Can Give Me, But You Cannot Take Me
Riddle: You can give me, but you cannot take me. It takes one to give me, but two to make me. The biggest circle I begin. And it is I that lies within. To all living things, I give breath. But I am not "god" nor "life" nor "death". And like the Phoenix from an urn, through me from ashes, it returns. What Am I?
Answer: Birth.

Illogical Fruit Pricings
Riddle: An apple costs 5¢, a banana costs 6¢, and a pear costs 4¢. How much would a strawberry cost?

You're Fired. Period.

Riddle: Three employees–A, B, and C–get called into the office. One of them is fired, another one is promoted, and the last one wants to resign at first, but changes his mind. You know that one, the employee who is fired is older than the rest and single, and two, Employee B is younger than the employee who stays, and he doesn't know C's wife. Who is fired?
Answer: C can't be fired because he's married (i.e. he has a wife). B can't be fired either because he's younger than the employee who stays (B can't be younger than A because nobody was fired and decided to stay at the same time, and he can't be younger than himself either, so B is the youngest). It means that A has been fired.
