On the previous riddle, Tim K got it first and wins the…
HIGH PRAISE!
Here’s a harder one, though.
I swing the axe triumphantly,
Fist in the air,
Only to be made the fool.
I pick a flower not for my love,
But for whom I hate the most.
Be the first to solve this one and win…
EVEN MORE HIGH PRAISE!
Willie Nelson?
“I throw the ball triumphantly,
Fist in the air,
Only to be made the fool by the safety.”
Brett Favre!
Hendrix
or that little beasturd paper boy down the block
BAY-NOR of Orange? axes, flowers… never mind.
The Tin Man!
a liberal?
Pete Townshend?
Commies. This riddle is full of commies.
pirate-ninja lumberjack-gardners who are stupid?
Mario.
[Super Mario, that is. -Ed.]
I believe that would be the head of the local 101 volunteer squirrel union.
The “Axe” is of course Axelrod.
The “fist” is that obnoxious fist-bump move the Obamas do.
Probably the answer is OBAMA, but I honestly can’t say that I know why, or what the “flower” refers to.
Worst!
Haiku!
Ever!!
Flowers and fools – HIPPIES!! Punch ’em!
So I have to play old video games to understand these riddles?
Well, I got nothing better to do.
Minecraft, obviously. You are chopping down a tree, then the axe wears out and suddenly you are punching it with your fists. The flower is for yourself, whom you hate for spending too many hours playing Minecraft. It will go in the chest with the other 40 flowers.
Batman. The flower is for Rhas al Ghul.
Aw, man. I read this and instantly thought, “Mario” only to find out in the comments that it had already been solved.
It comes of having a 7-year-old who plays old video games like mad. The day is coming for you too, Frank J. (And it’s awesome.)
Matt Damon!
Hate’s such a strong word.
I don’t like axe swingin’ and such. It’s like too violent for me! I’m off to protest the raping of Mother Earth… It’s about Hippies but they need punchin’
Fail riddle… If the answer is indeed Super Mario, when has he ever actually swung an axe? Nevar!
I’d swing-a the ax
But Plumbers Union says no.
Steward Mario
..I swing the axe triumphantly (victory)
..Fist in the air (liberal revolution)
..Only to be made the fool (by Obama)
..I pick a flower not for my love (taxes)
..But for whom I hate the most (government)
After the Victorious Revolution
thee Obama is Taxing us to death
the end cometh soon
I’m so confused. I played Mario and never saw him swing an axe. If he swung an axe at hippies, that would make the game more interesting.
Ted Turner? He owns the Atlanta Braves and they do that ‘Tomahawk Chop’ thing during games.
Sean Duffy, the former Real World star now running as a Republican for David Obey’s old seat in WI-7? His ads have featured a lumberjack theme.
Scratch that, he’s no fool… and he’s a good bet to win! GOP PICK-UP!!!
Taliban
That lumberjack looking dude on the Brawny paper towel package?
Barney Frank?
Howard Dean?
Howard the Duck?
Did I win?
It’s either Algore or Wahoo McDaniels.
Either way, I win.
Save the Polar Bears!
That will teach me to go off exploring other parts of the internet. I come to IMAO to find another riddle and the answer in the comments.
I, however, think “the botnet” deserves praise (normal medium sized praise) for the Wahoo McDaniels reference.
LEEEEEEEEEEEROY JENKINS!!!!!!!
thup thup thup thup thup thup thup
You know, I used to ignore this because it didn’t matter that much but seriously FrnakJ, you need to stop getting high and praising people.
You have a little FrnakJr on the way, what’s she going to think?
Won’t you please think of the child?
EVEN MORE HIGH PRAISE!
And look, it’s getting worse, now you’re shouting while you’re all high and getting ready to praise someone.
I’m not so much mad as disappointed.
Rachel Corey!
Something to do with sparkly vampires (and Axe body spray)?
(I take great pride in not knowing that series enough to defend that guess….)
To those who don’t get the part about the axe:
Mario did swing an axe in Super Mario Bros. It was at the end of every castle during the boss fight.
Wait, seriously? the answer is Super Mario?
