Riddles

[Tired]

Nah, I've never been able to apply the abstractions required to solve these sorts of puzzles. Just isn't how my head's wired, I may be a bolshy and uncompromising sod when it comes to working with logic and evidence, but this stuff leaves me floundering!
Quicksand for the mind! Help! I'm sinking fast!

But you did last time give a very good idea of something floating and being both wet and dry - clouds. It actually is a very interesting answer I didn't think about, and it could be the real answer. I would say give yourself a chance, but of course do however you feel.
And here is a rope, kind sir!

Here's a hint

Look at the furthest reaches of the universe, where time began

light or heat

 

[jsilver256]

What glow lies beyond the cosmos?

 

[Tired]

I don't know, I'm not much into astronomy to know that, so i guess i'll have to wait for people who are

 

[FayetheAspie]

cosmic glow

 

[jsilver256]

cosmic glow

Getting there... is there a term for it?

Singularity? That point of intense heat and density before the Big Bang?

Singularity? That point of intense heat and density before the Big Bang?

Well.. we ARE part of that "singularity," just 13.8 billion years after the fact. It's cooled down, it's clumped, but that singularity still exists all around us today.

The "glow" has a particular term. I'll give the answer if nobody gets it. I'm apparently terrible at making riddles.

X-ray light? You riddle is fine, as that is why we keep guessing. It takes time to narrow things down by reading tips and asking questions

 

[jsilver256]

Not X-Ray, but it is a specific and ancient type of radiation. It can be visualized with special techniques.

Had to research just now. CMB (cosmic microwave background) radiation?

Winner!

On the contrary, the harder they are to solve the more adept one is at riddling.

 

[FayetheAspie]

@jsilver256 So are you going to post another or what?

Next riddle:

I am warm,
yet never kind.
I can be calm
but just a small part there
Yet I Love Summers and Falls.

What am I?

 

[FayetheAspie]

Hurricane

 

[1ForAll]

Hurricane

You are the winner! That was fast. Now your turn.

 

[jsilver256]

Wow, that was fast!

 

[Tired]

I didn't even know hurricanes are warm, never had one in my life.

 

[jsilver256]

Along the same vein, because why not...

I am cold,
yet never kind.
I sometimes wink at satellites,
but it is not a true eye.
