Puzzles,conundrums, riddles and thoughts?

Time?

Wait, what?

Given enough time I'm sure that will be the right answer again, this ones driving me nuts I can think of a million and one things that fit the first two but the last one must be a figurative expression, like throwing in the towel which incorporates x, I just can't think of a word that would express all three :) Good one 50.
 
"The future" kind of works, if you think of 'thrown' as "throwing away your future."

I've thought of both fate and future and fortune and philosophy, but they don't fit ideally. I'm sure there's something really obvious and it's probably of a physical or mental nature rather than conceptual, I just can't figure it out?

Caution, you can read it in a person, you can throw it to the wind, and it is seen but not visible :) Doubt it though :lol:

It's almost the antithesis of love though,that's a big clue.

I've though of mood/anger/hatred and then of temper, as in you can throw a temper tantrum but it's a bit like future.

Dreams as in throw them away,you can catch dreams with a dream catcher, oh well. I think I'll give it a break this is driving me nuts :)
 
How about numbers you can read them but they are not words, you can see them but they are invisible, show me a number in reality, six is visible? And of course you can throw numbers, as in dice, you may catch them but you are not catching a number and catching a die is not catching a number.:) Seriously doubt it though.
 
OK I think there is no answer, and Fifty is playing games:), anyone want to put up a new one, if it isn't so kindly show me Fifty?

I'll make the rule anyone who hasn't put up one before.

A game or a contest fits your criteria perfectly. As do many others. so I'm going to accept that.
 
You're all wrong!

I swear there's an actual real answer. If someone wants it I can PM it but I have to think that someone out there can get it?

hint #2: think in terms of logic

MY RIDDLE:

"what can be read but isn't words, can be seen but isn't visible, and can be thrown but cannot be caught"

X-rays... not visible, but the film can be read. Can be thrown/released, but not captured/caught.


Probably not right, though. :hmm:

nope! Again, think in terms of LOGIC.

Reason?????? Sense? voice? speech?

A reflection? You can cast a reflection?
 
dammit i was thinknig voice too
 
lol, id like braile to be the answer please.
 
dammit i was thinknig voice too

How can you read someones voice though? Language, but you can't throw language, speech but? Throw a speech?

It's logical but it's almost the opposite of love, like reason, or sense, or rationality or knowledge,wisdom or learning? But nothing fits? I was thinking of expression like a glower? Sign language? hehe.
 
what can be read but isn't words, can be seen but isn't visible, and can be thrown but cannot be caught

You can read someones lips, again you can see someone speaking, but sound itself isnt visile, and obviously you can thow your voice

You can read someones tone of voice too I suppose? I'm not convinced but? If It's right you can take my turn.
 
quite creative Abaddon but voice isn't actually the answer. I'm not sure how voice can be seen? I mean a mouth moving can be seen but a voice can't exactly be seen.

Shall I drop more hints or what? Don't tell me you guys want to give up!!! (and if you think this is a BS riddle I could pm the answer to a mod or something and they could verify that it's real)

Here's another hint: Sidhe came very close to the answer somewhere in post #276.

Oh no I believe it's real, I thought you might of been joking at first and the thing about games was a kind of play on words? Put up another clue, this is driving me nuts!!!

Education? Study?
