Riddles

@FayetheAspie You may have to give another clue or it will be hard to give more guesses, as your clues of the mode of transportation and answer being tangible and being based off a saying still could be mostly anything, in light of you have yet to say if anyone is close yet..
 
Maybe I should just say. I am starting to think that no one is familiar with the term. Does anyone have experience with equestrian disciplines ?
 
The answer would be a horse rider. There is an exercise for both increasing balance and trust between the horse and rider. While the horse stands still, you make a complete turn on its back. Start facing forward as normal for riding. Flip one leg over and swivel in place so that you sit facing sideways. Repeat, now facing backwards then to the other side, finally all the way back around sitting the normal direction. This exercise is referred to as going around the world.

Ah, ok. Never heard of that phrase before in a non-literal way, so I would not have guessed it regardless of clue.
 
Same here, too specialist for me to have got it. I'd never heard of that.
 
I think we all have gotten to learn new things at times on this thread.
 
There is a riddle that fictional character Edward Nygma told that I disagree with his answer on. I think it has bugged me every time I remember it ever since I first heard it. Do you want to see if you detect the same error of logic that I did in his answer?

Sure, share it
 
Ed asked, "What do a dead man, a cruise ship, and an emu have in common?"
His answer was,"Nothing."
I disagree. They do have some things in common.

I understand what you mean. I think it depends on how thorough we are when we compare. For example, if I say a horse and an apple doesn't have anything in common, it sounds right at first glance. Two very different things. But we could for example say that both are on planet earth. So they have that in common.

I think we can always find something things have in common, no matter how different they are. 🤔

A dead man, a cruise ship and an emu are very different things. But I'm sure we can find several things they have in common. In the case you mentioned, it was just a joke. Not meant to be taken too seriously I think. :)
