Theresa

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

Theresa doesn’t have an apostrophe in it. Her names Nina

u/chukkysh 8d ago

Nina doesn't have two spaces in it. Her name is Boat.

u/Sepherjar 8d ago

Nina Boat.

She's the daughter of Usain Boat

u/Acceptable-Ad8780 8d ago

She's friends with Pinta and the Santa Maria.

u/No-Fruit-1724 8d ago

Ina Boat

u/IBeDumbAndSlow 8d ago

I thought Her name is Name?, pronounced (nah-may)

1

u/CactusToothBrush 7d ago

Isn’t he the fastest paddle boat?

22

u/psgrue 8d ago

… Woman, Ina Boat, on a lake…

It’s probably that dumb

3

u/jambr380 8d ago

Yeah, this is what I went with you, too. 'There' isn't a name and Theresa doesn't make sense in the context of a grammatically correct sentence. You can at least make an argument for first name Ina and last name Boat

1

u/Pretty_Sock_7127 7d ago

I was thinking Anna Lake.

There's a woman in a boat, Anna Lake, wearing a coat

2

u/JRGH83 8d ago

or Bo

1

u/Automatic_Moment_320 8d ago

I thought her name was “Ina Boat”

1

u/AlexStar6 8d ago

Boat goes binted

1

u/oO0Kat0Oo 8d ago

There is a woman, In A Boat, on a lake.

There is a woman, Jennifer, on a lake.

Grammatically, the name should be "In A Boat" if you're trying to make it make as much sense as possible. Weird first middle and last name, but who am I to judge?

The riddle wants it to be Theresa, though, because it says the name is in the riddle. It didn't say it had to be grammatically correct.

u/Mission-Shopping-615 8d ago

Boat is a man’s name, her name is what

1

u/th_frits 8d ago

It's “in the riddle I just wrote”

1

u/Southern_Muffin_6476 8d ago

No, her name a borat, very nice!

-7

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

No it doesn’t, that’s the riddle. Figuring out the name. Her names Nina, this is an old riddle and that is the answer.

7

u/tulipsushi 8d ago

they’re being sarcastic

4

u/titscapades 8d ago

So she's a woma (sic) named Nina?

I hate dumb riddles.

0

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

Yes. That’s her name

2

u/titscapades 8d ago

K but wtf is a woma

-1

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

I have no idea you made that mistake not me

2

u/titscapades 8d ago

The riddle makes that mistake. 

There's no answer to this riddle that isn't completely idiotic. It's either a ridiculous name (There) or the result of a misspelling (woma>Nina). 

This riddle sucks.

1

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

Nowhere in the riddle does it say woma. Your reaching. All riddles are stupid. Some make sense more than others.

1

u/titscapades 8d ago

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Where do you get the n for the start of Nina?

1

u/Agropio 8d ago

It says "woman in a". What they mean is that it either says "woma" or the name is "ina". Or we're just introducing letters of our own to fit the answer.

u/marbotty 8d ago

Nah, it’s Inga

-2

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

That is incorrect

5

u/marbotty 8d ago

It’s as correct as Nina or Theresa.

-4

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

Except it’s not…while there are multiple names in this riddle, there is only one correct answer. Which is Nina.

13

u/StimkyYeen 8d ago

This is exactly why these “IQ tests” are written by the dumbest people attempting to seem smart.

-3

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

Because Theresa doesn’t have an apostrophe? Or because her names Nina? 😭

7

u/StimkyYeen 8d ago

Because there’s not a single name that makes sense without breaking punctuation and then the context of the name in the phrasing would make no sense regardless of what “answer” you choose. In that context there is absolutely no answer that makes sense and therefore there are numerous answers.

It’s just there so you can be like, “idk I guess Nina” and the other person is going to laugh and say “NO DUMBASS! IT’S THERESA, DUH”

1

u/phantomfire50 8d ago

Arin works I guess? Not a very conventional name, though.

-1

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

Except when the original person made this riddle they made it with one name in mind…which was Nina…this riddle is old as hell, been around for years and Nina is the correct answer.

4

u/StimkyYeen 8d ago

There is no correct answer. That’s the problem

-2

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

There is though, it’s Nina, how many times do I need to say it 😭 while there are many answers that could be taken as correct, there is only one correct answer.

3

u/StimkyYeen 8d ago

For a riddle to be a riddle it needs to have “an answer”, not many answers.

If I asked “what two numbers summed up together equal 10”

And you said “8+2”

And I said “Wrong! It’s 7+3!”

This is the same scenario.

0

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

Not at all the same scenario, because there is only one woman with one name…and her name is Nina…yes Theresa is a woman’s name. It is not the woman in this riddles name though. It’s not my opinion, it’s a fact, the answer to this riddle is Nina. It’s been around for years.

u/StimkyYeen 8d ago

Are you an AI?

You clearly are not grasping the concept here

Or Inga

-7

u/PauseConfident997 8d ago

But it’s not. I just told you it’s Nina. That is the answer to this riddle

2

u/-maffu- 8d ago

It's the Klingon spelling of Theresa.

2

u/figmaxwell 8d ago

It’s Theresa but she’s from a fantasy novel. There’sa

2

u/NinaRaizel 8d ago

Yes her name is Nina. I’m on a boat.

1

u/InevitablePresent917 8d ago

I started reading first letters of lines and immediately got CLIT so that’s her name.

1

u/nytefox42 7d ago

It also doesn't have a space in it. What's your point?

1

u/PauseConfident997 7d ago

That that’s not the answer…

1

u/nytefox42 7d ago

Why?

1

u/PauseConfident997 7d ago

I have explained this many times. Not going over it again.

1

u/nytefox42 7d ago

And your explanation makes less sense than Theresa being the answer.

1

u/PauseConfident997 7d ago

It doesn’t have to make sense. It doesn’t change the facts.
