One Minute Mystery Thread

[AsuraSyn]

the man is right, the child wrong, because you don't say "he comes" you say "he's coming" due to the sentient quality of "he" vs. the inanimate quality of "it"?  

[Kerobian]

No. On both counts.

1) The man is not correct

2) You can in fact say "Here he comes, when speaking of something that, while not male, has masculine properties.  

[AsuraSyn]

Oh! I got one!

A man goes outside and turns on a light. He sees a Comet coming at him yet is unafraid.

Hmmm.... are ye building on Kero's riddle? Cause that sounds like he's a station master at a train station and the evening run is coming in.....  

[Turpentity]

Umm..none of them has proper grammar, coz they said "here"? Shouldn't it be "there"?

No. One of them (The child, I've already revealed through hints) has proper grammar.

Can anyone tell me why the Child is correct?

Cause a train is phallic?

@Ly-Ly - Not building on Froggy's riddle, just one that came to me while pondering this stuff is all.

Yes, you may.  

[Lyssan]

That is because the train in question was a Mail Train.... wink  

[Turpentity]

...I don't get it. Mail train???? WTF is that?  

[Kerobian]

It's a train that carries mail, of course.  

[Lyssan]

Anyway.... that little mystery was pun based.... this one isn't, but it's just as good, trust me... (I'm putting one up as it took everyone to solve the last wink )

Joe leaves his house, wearing a mask and carrying an empty sack. An hour later he returns. The sack is now full. He goes into a room and turns out the lights.
Ask away people... remember my answers need to be short and sweet so don't go asking for details. mrgreen
