    Is it a doorway?


    This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!

    ) No it hasn't.

    And it is unusual apart from its colour, in fact i can add this additional bit onto it and still for such a long paragraph it is most odd!

    (edit: damn i slipped)

    Sorry it DOSE have gramatical errors.

    The word "BUT" can't start a sentance.

    Also if you added that bit on like it is it would be MORE wrong because you can't start a sentance with "AND" either.

    *lol* "But" is acceptable if not techichnically correct perhaps, but for pedants, i revise:

In fact, it is unusual apart from its colour and I could also join this additional bit onto it and still for such a long paragraph it is most distinctly odd!

    Happy?

    glass or bowl, no.

    doorway, closest so far. but not the answer. doorways are generally in constant view.

    GREEN RIDDLE:

    answer: It's nothing but run-on sentences. and therefore the graf will never end--regardless of grammar and/or font color.

    yeah, I knew it's about unions and intersection, but i forgot the equation rules of union/intersection. It's looong... time ago at junior highschool.

    Anyway, my equations still acceptable isn't it? 6 equations required to solve 6 variables. These other 3 equations wich supposed to drawn from the unions picture.

    D+E+A+B+C+3=14+21 --> D+E+A+B+C=32
    D+F+A+B+C+3=14+13 --> D+F+A+B+C=24
    E+F+A+B+C+3=21+13 --> E+F+A+B+C=24

    to others
    Sorry I give up on language-twisting riddle. I'm not speaking English daily

    The answer to WHF riddle is that the paragraph has no letter "e" in it.
