I suck at riddles like that, but once I've heard it I remember the answer.
Sometimes (altho very rarely) I can hear a new riddle and get the right answer based on similar riddles from the past.

One of multiple reasons I think I might be on the spectrum tbh.

I'm going to go use these on my mom now. She's definitely not a lateral thinker, and it's fun watching her struggle with some of this stuff.
