Hi:
A tricky teaser. I enjoyed it very much. I could not give the answer. The message is wonderful: a habit is hard to get rid of. quack - quack

Yeh, good one, but didn't guess it. Was thinking body parts. Still liked it even tho it was not EASY for me.

Pretty good one, it makes no since, but a good one. LOL

Very easy but I don't get it. Is it implicit that I have a habit? How do you know? Also, OLD habits die hard, but then O would be the first letter... etc.

STARTING WITH IT AND ADDING LETTERS MADE THIS VERY EASY.
Sorry, I didn't notice the caps were left on. I try to be more careful.
Cute, but a bit easy.
Cute! My kids will love it! Thanks for submitting.
I got it! maybe it could be worded a little differently to make it a little harder, I don't know? I noticed right away what was goin on, then went through the alphabet adding to "abit" until I got to "H"+"abit", "Habit"!
Thanks, that was very fun and clever!

Nope didn't get it. I was stumped.. Good Job
A very super teaser! My mind was sharp, this morning, so the answer stood out. Yet, it is an excellant way to describe, with this riddle teaser! Make some of these a bit tougher
I was teasing with that last line, so smile, a little bit
easy but very enjoyable. they don't all have to be real tough!
it could be rabit too
Happy Birthday so soon! Nice Teaser.

Yay! I never get these kind of riddles right!
You Know I thought of that , but it just seemed so obvious idismissed the thought! Who would Guess
it twas good very good!...hehe..habit..
Habit, got it really good teaser!
Very cleverly worded teaser, loved solving it! Keep them coming, make them more difficult, if you can. Thanks.
I loved this one
I got the basic idea, but I couldn't get the last letter! Aargh! Good work.
very nice!
this is a red letter day for me. i got one right. this was a fun teaser, a little hard but i did it
Great Job! How 'bout another one?
What a great teaser. You got me. Maybe next time. More please?
this was a very good one..... i couldnt guess the answer!
definitely an awesome teaser! I got it, though I wasn't sure I would when I read through it the first three or so times... like others said, working backwards (it by bit by abit more? ) helped. I rated this "fun" and "medium hard". I think I giggled when I got the answer, because I knew it was right and it was exciting to see it confirmed!! Goodday, goodday...
AND I just realized -- this is the first riddle I've ever gotten!! WOOHOOO!!!
I couldn't think of anything that ended with "bit." I guess I didn't work on it long enough. It was a good one, though!
Great riddle. At first I was thinking heart, then i realized 'it' needed to remain, then I realized each line gave the remaining letters, so I worked backwards. it-bit-a bit-?
Everyone has one...
Everyone has one...
Pretty easy, but interesting.
NICE 1! KEEP 'EM COMING!!!
EZ PZ but really fun!! Nice job!
EASY FOR ME !!!!
that was tricky........GREAT TEASER!!! i loved it!!
Easy for me too, but fun to work it out!
I loved this one!! Thanks for posting!
Nice teaser. At first I thought they were the letters in your name, when you get rid of the first letter there's a bit of you left.
I got hung up on "a bit" and then "bit" and had to read it several times before it finally soaked in! But when I finally got it, I thought "What a great teaser!"
Awesome teaser!!! I couldn't get it though. Keep up your 'habit' of good teasers!!!!
A good one for philosophers, does everyone have them? How about nabit "Pulverized sugar candy?" Then again we don't all have sugar, unless we're hypothetically flexible with the teaser that is.
Cute, cute, kind of easy, but cute.
Cute wordplay.
Easy teasy. The wordplay is clever and enjoyable.
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser. I got this one very quickly - not much of a challenge.
This was fun, although a bit on the easy side. A great one for the whole family to do.
