Brain Teasers
Senseless and Fast
In your future and in your past
I come and go so senseless and fast
My purpose is unknown to all
Remembrance seems to drift then fall
I travel by night and fade by day
Because that is my common way

I like it. easy but very fun
i didnt get it, but i like it; it was good
Good teaser. However, as there are 24 "What Am I?" teasers, you should try to come up with an original title. Good teaser though.
actually, i didn't have too much caffeine. just 6 pixi stix. my apologies. so yeah...ok well i'm a people-pleaser so --*kills self* X.X lol bai!
Very easy, but fun. Keep the riddles coming!
Good Teaser. . did u know by the way that at least 20-21% of people get killed or kill them selves because of the internet. just thought i should bring it up.
oh, don't worry. i can't die, anyway. i'm a vampire.^.^ [no, really. my grandpa's from transylvannia. lol]
imcul4e u don't have to go anywhere. I just did that same evil laugh to my sister just before reading the comments. I laughed till my belly hurt when I saw your first comment. haha thanks for making me laugh, and amy great teaser. I really enjoyed it.
I liked your teaser!
I actually got this one, great teaser
Very good! I got it by the second sentence! I liked it and it'll go into my favs! Keep them coming!

Good job and well written little rhyme ..I liked it a lot!
Dec 10, 2005
First I thought "the moon" but it's not senseless. So then the answer suggested itself. Good teaser!
"To die, to sleep--
To sleep--perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause."
So, IMCUL4E, how's that immortal coil working out for you? Nice teaser, Amy, loved it.
To sleep--perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub,

So, IMCUL4E, how's that immortal coil working out for you? Nice teaser, Amy, loved it.
I LIKED THIS ONE AMY. GOT THE CORRECT ANSWER TOO. . KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
Is the purpose of dreams really unknown to all? Modifying memories, making plans, replaying the events of the day, wishfull thinking, re-living precious moments- all part of the mind at work while the body rests.
Pleasant dreams.
Pleasant dreams.
I got it..unbelievable..since riddles are not my forte...by the way, IMCUL43 you are funny. Started the day with a laugh
had me stumped especially after an all nighter.
got it, enjoyed your rhyme, good one to wake up to
Nice poem and riddle, thanks! I don't think you should have the hint, makes it too easy, my opinion, obviously. Some of u peeps are so xtreme! Imcul was very very funny about going first. Oh, um, whoever that was, you said 20-24% of people die... 20% of what people? Of the world population? Or of peeps who use the internet? That's one fifth to one fourth, ya know... That's like, kinda hard to swallow. I'd like to know more about that. Thanks for the teaser amy!
Yeah that was a nice teaser, I especially love teasers that I can get. lol However dreams are not senseless at all, and there purpose is known to many people.
Serpio, little harsh dont ya think??
Serpio, little harsh dont ya think??
Good one Amy. I got it without the clue which makes it a nice way to start my day.
easy but nicely done.
IMHO "Time" could also be the answer ...
haha well i'm really bad at riddles...anyways good job, of course i didn't get it right...but i'm slowly getting better! hehe i was thinking the moon, but that only fit about half the clues
I loved this one! And the weird part is I actually got it. I thought it might be dreams and then I saw the hint and I knew it was. This is my first teaser to ever get right away and I've been doing them for alomst a year..
I loved it though! Make more like this one please!

I liked it. It was a little easy, but cleverly written. The part about it "coming at night and fading by day" gave it away. Good Job
I didn't get it o well great one
I liked this teaser alot! And I got it right, w/o the hint!! Thanks Amy, this is a good one.
I'm afraid that I got this one very quickly, and with ease. It was so simple, my llama could have gotten that one. And I don't even have a llama. You tried, but not hard enough.
Very good teaser. Well written. Keep up the good work.
I agree. dreams are very much not senseless. they helped me determine that the thing i hated to death doing less than a year ago will be my future career, i hope.
anyway, thanks. i'm no good at riddles though.

couldn't it also be acne? i mean, when it fades by day, that could mean that it's covered up with make-up. and they come and go, and who knows why we have it?
omg I GOT IT thats so cool i really enjoyed that one!! : that was totally fun oh yeh oh yeh whos good im good!!!
Kinda easy.
My first guess was sleep, then I checked out the hint and saw it made a plural reference which led me to the correct answer. Good job.
quite easy since I got it and riddles arn't my strong point but still cute
Igot it. I got it. I got it......after i read the hint. Ihardle ever get them right!!!! Well, anyways good teaser,Amy!!!
Great teaser....I enjoyed it...1) because i got it right ...2)I love when i remember dreams....I think they can seem senseless at times but can also be a healing tool as well....after my father died I had wonderful vivid dreams of him that seemed to help through a tough time......thx for the wonderful teaser...keep them coming
Very well written, and I was able to get it without the hint. I thought it was great! Keep up the good work!
I FINALLY GOT ONE.
Great teaser, I got it right away but really well written.
If this teaser was rated by numbers i would give it a 9.
Yeah, so happy I got the answer right away. You made my day, thanks.
I got it.
So What, I got it Right. So What, I am Happy because liike You, I Got it Right. Keep Righting the Teasers. I got it Write.....
Thanks for the good comments. i know it was pretty easy, but you need a few easy riddles mixed in with the harder ones...to ummm...give variety...yeah thats it. O and i guess you guys are right, dreams aren't always senseless...but usually mine are so i just wrote it in the riddle.
It was cool I came close I said memories because I guess Im always forgetting things It was a good one it kinda sounded like a poem
Thank you, guys! ^___^ *warm fuzzies* ["guys"--Lady Lani, ceeyaa, shawneeo]
and mogur, i LOVE that quote! that's one of my favorite shakespearian quotes. [others- "these words are razors to my wounded heart" and [i think] "look like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under it" i had to do a project and had trouble deciding between the 3]
an call me mikki, please. i'm so embarassed by my username....

Niice
got it (after having read the hint )
good teaser, thanks
good teaser, thanks
got it! Fun teaser, thanks
WAY TOO EASY. NOW THAT WE HAVE GOTTEN AN EASY ONE, HOW ABOUT SOMETHING TO CHALLENGE US. (PLEASE)
yawn
Way too easy, but fun.
Easy but nice.
I actually came up with the right answer, but after I said 'dreams' I felt like it wasnt quite fitting the riddle. Maybe its just me.
OMG! Least we forget, You have to get something to please the only authority on Braingle... Get something on to please LM This one is easy, but keep up at your own pace! There are other teasers to fill any of our needs on Braingle. BTW, the teaser was terrific!
To Imurray, don't always be so negative when I have not seen any teasers from you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I once dreamt that i had the worlds biggest headache, and someone gave me a hundred pound aspirin! When I woke up, my pillow was gone! Good one.
I'm usually more of a day dreamer. And the dreams I have at night are more entertaining than real life at times. It's fun to be able to free-fall like a cartoon character and never hit the ground.
A lot of fun, I got it right away
Lame I'd like a teaser to challenge me for a minute or two, not the second it took to get this.
loved it! great teaser
Well I immediately thought DREAMS and then put many more minutes of thought into this teaser because I feel there are plenty of purposes to dreams. Maybe the experts don't agree.
Not my favorite teaser, but thanks for some morning brain work.

pretty easy but awesome
I guess my brain is a little slow today tough night last night.!!!!!!! Good one.
hmmmmm dreams didn't think of that one. i thought it was darkness.....
It works too right?
It works too right?
I loved the teaser! I thought it was well written (unlike other riddles I've encountered...). Great job!
i got it right for the first time!!!! lol. how stupid is that?!?!
Good riddle. Fun to read and solve. I myself have always been fasinated by dreams as well.
As riddles are not my strong suit, I can't agree with those who complained it was too easy.
I was amazed to find I had company in my first guess 'moon'! I needed the hint to lead me to a plural and got 'dreams' soon after.
Thanks for a riddle that was for me at least try-able; so many I can't even begin to guess.

What a dreamy teaser. Just right for a slow Satruday morning. More please
Awww.. i had no idea. Well, not no idea... I thought 'time' first, then 'light', then I read the hint and got quite perplexed...
I guess I'm just not in the riddle mood today, and I should've given it a bit more time. But I was all caught up in time fading, and how purposeless time is but how it comes and goes so senseless and fast... that I decided it would be a good time to get back to work. So, I looked at the answer....
Ah well. Dreams are cool though, as is this teaser.

Nice and easy on a Monday morn.
Easy. Good poetry.
Easy one, but well written. Thanks !
I like it. thanks
Easy, fun and well-written!
Loved it! makes me feel smart when i get them right
Great teaser! And I actually got it. I have a hard time with teasers, lol.
I got it after reading the hint... I thought it was shadows.....
Easy, but fun. Nice riddle!
nice! I love that! I thought it would be harder but when I saw the answer I felt REALLY stupid! GREAT JOB!
That one was way too easy. Had it before I finished reading it. Sorry!
No challenge there.
No challenge there.
Way 2 ez.
Yes, it was easy to come up with the answer - but the riddle was very well presented and enjoyable to read and think about! Thank you for sharing with us.
A dream to some. A nightmare to others.
I guessed the right answer. I am happy.
Dreams are not senseless. They have an evolutionary purpose: to face your fears without being in danger.
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser. Though nicely written, I got this one right away. A bit too easy and not much of a challenge.
