There are no stupid riddles

[FZD]

I state things like they are not, whilst hoping you'll see the things as they are.
I merely infuriate, but never hurt anyone, apart from those that the Egyptian strangled.
What am I?

 

[NaffNaffBobFace]

I am for some but not for others,
To get to me you must pass 12 of my brothers,
Certain kitchens may call me a dozen,
But only when pulled from a specialist oven.

What am I?

Is it the Riddle of the Sphinx?

Is it the Riddle of the Sphinx?

Acceptable, the exact answer would've just been "a riddle". And yes, "the Egyptian" refers to the Sphinx.

What am I?

The 13th bagel of a bakers dozen?

The 13th bagel of a bakers dozen?

Correct, I was thinking more of the number 13 when writing it but it definately fits :) The first line refers to the Bingo call "Unlucky for some, number thirteen!"

 

[NaffNaffBobFace]

I am round in shape, or there abouts.
I have a thin hard exterior and a liquidy inner.
I cradle precious life.

Egg, I'd say.

Egg, I'd say.

Incorrect, I wrote it to seem like an egg but it is altogether a different item which matches the same description - think of something a bit rounder than an egg :)

A shell?

 

[NaffNaffBobFace]

A shell?

Nope, not a shell but a cool idea :-)

Grape?
Relatively hard thin exterior, squishy juicy inside, and seeds that will give life to more plants.

I was thinking something like an almond shell but trying to get something that has a liquidy interior...
Something like coconut?

Nope not a grape.

Clue:

Replace the word "precious" the last line with the word "all".

... Did you go really big? Like maybe earth sized?

 

[NaffNaffBobFace]

... Did you go really big? Like maybe earth sized?

Correct!

Hope it wasn't an anti-climax.

 

[Vavrik]

Correct!

Hope it wasn't an anti-climax.

Not at all. I do puzzles like this sometimes to get me into the right frame of mind for work. It's a distraction from distractions so to speak. Just this week, other things are on my mind.

Here's a silly one: what happens once in a minute, twice in a moment but never in a thousand years?

The letter m.

 

[Lorddarthvik]

Correct!

From the hint of "all" I would have guessed a bottle of water lol
Nah, not anti-climactic, just a bit of a facepalm on my end lol
