A new riddle for you:

[O2BBubbleFree]

This is a really old one. If you've heard if before, please refrain from posting. Initially, anyway.

It's straightforward, but confusing enough that most people get it wrong.

A man looks out the window and points to a second man walking along the sidewalk. The first man states, ,"Brothers and sisters have I none, but that man's father's my father's son." Who is he pointing at?

 

[mle_osu]

it is his son.

 

[hnladue]

He's pointing to HIS son.

 

[The Kraken]

His son.

 

[Firebrand]

His Son - explanation (I Think)

That man's father's my father's son = That man's father is me. He's pointing to his grown son.

You guys are too good. I usually get an arguement on this one. Most people either say it's his grandson (one of you fell for this one, then changed your answer, didn't you? I saw it. Don't deny it. Fess up.), or himself (or his reflection).

 

[Firebrand]

Yeah, but then I went back and re-worked the problem in my head. I won't deny it, I have the right to change my final answer!

Ah ha! A confession!

However, it wasn't you who I noticed!

Someone else needs to come forward...
