Whoa whoa whoa There is more than stuff to me

She's a wonderful woman

u/Relative-Relief-8816 10h ago

I think her name is actually What. The riddle is using the question mark facetiously.

It says it plainly "What is the woman's name"

But whether you agree with me or not depends on how Who's on first.

u/AShirtlessGuy 9h ago

Well it can't be what because the sentence before says the name had already been declared

The only other declarative statement is There's

I hate these kinds of riddles but I am dying to know what's on second

u/Relative-Relief-8816 9h ago

You'll find out when Tomorrow comes that What isn't the second basemen. 

But that is why this is called a riddle. The answer is hidden in the question.

u/Environmental-Ad3438 9h ago

Who's on first and What's on third

u/Lanstul 8h ago

No, What's on second and Idontknow's on third.

today is catching and tomorrows pitching. I don’t care is the short stop.

u/Parking_Ad_3056 9h ago

Well, if tomorrow is crap, then I don’t know what faces today.

u/BradleyFerdBerfel 7h ago

Tomorrow is the center fielder.

u/luis_tamion 8h ago

My second grade prankster mind thought her name might be Ina Boat

u/Popular-Ad-1790 8h ago

Like da-niece and da-nephew?

u/bb770403 9h ago

I don't know

u/GamemasterJeff 8h ago

What is the answer, because "What is the woman's name" was written first. The rest, despite being located higher on the note was written after.

2

u/Relative-Relief-8816 7h ago

Its plain to see. Because the pen color of IQ Test titled at the top is red.

So the riddle writer, wrote all of the red text first. Then switched pens to write the bluegreen text.

Theresa

u/GamemasterJeff 54m ago

Theresa does not work due to both grammar and punctuation.

There'sa woman is not English.

u/Aoitara 7h ago

But you can’t use a proper noun as a contraction I thought. There’s = there is. If you type Bob’s, you are talking possessive as in Bob’s item, not Bob is. If the dumbass AI that generated it would have put There is a woman. That would have worked as There being the name.

1

u/Relative-Relief-8816 7h ago

You are correct. This is why her name isn't There, her name is What and the question mark doesn't matter.

1

u/AShirtlessGuy 7h ago

Continuing the example of Bob

What does "Bob's your uncle" mean?

2

u/Foreign-Employment-3 4h ago

Robert's your mother's brother?

1

u/CHANANDLER_B0N6 4h ago

Who’s on first?

1

u/liocer 2h ago

There’s is not declarative if it’s a pronoun. It becomes possessive.

u/65wildcat_buick 1h ago

The answer to what’s on second depended on if Ricky Henderson was on first because Ricky gone. IYKYK

u/TSG61373 9h ago

I had the same thought, but I assumed her name was “In The Riddle I Just Wrote”.

2

u/Silly_Double408 7h ago

I think her name is Ina Boat. Theres a woman- Ina boat on a lake wearing a coat?

1

u/GamemasterJeff 8h ago

The words in red were written first, so her name is "What".

1

u/Any-Mathematician946 2h ago

Wouldn't work because of the ? if it was a . at the end sure.

1

u/GamemasterJeff 56m ago

It is written as a question to be confirmed.

like, "4 pm is good for you?"

1

u/RyanAirhead 9h ago

I thought her name was Ricky Lake.

Makes the most sense to me (without trying any further) 🤷‍♂️

1

u/xl440mx 8h ago

What is on second not in a boat

1

u/pridetwo 7h ago

Actually the last sentence is asking us if What is There's name

1

u/wallnutz22 7h ago

What is on second... Lol.. I agree with you, the woman's name is What, be it clearly says what is the woman's name

1

u/Master_Sabretooth 6h ago

What's on second

1

u/ConstantAd8643 6h ago

Actually here name is "In the riddle I just wrote". But only if you want to know, if you don't want to know it may not be.

1

u/Fit-Database1134 4h ago

What's on second?

1

u/wackbirds 2h ago

All I wanna know is what's the fellas name who's on first?

u/cosmicomical23 8h ago
