A visually stimulating riddle
Piddles has been connected to Babs via wire wrapped around their wrists, as shown in the picture above. How can Piddles and Babs unlink themselves from these unbreakable wires? NO LIMB SAWING ALLOWED!

Do I have to wait a whole day still?
Only if you use Google.
It's the Google-ootion man. Jump on the train or get left behind...
Uhhh... what's the point of Googling? I say, you have to make a guess one day before you even Google, if you don't make an educated guess first, and post, you may not submit a Googled answer. Sizzow to you smarty pants, you have to give the rest of us a chance before you tow (prounounce like 'cow') us with your evil genius.
And btw, what the eff is the answer, it's killing me.
The point is to come up with funny off the top of your head answers for jokes and fun times.
Sorry... my smarty-pantsness is in direct proportion to my disdain for riddles as a blog post ... (sorry Muns, I still love you) ... but the thinking/computation processes of my poor muddled brain are currently being consumed by such all important things as programming, politics, anxiety about the end of the world and finding Nemo that actually having to think that hard about a blog comment might make my head momentarily leave my body, rotate 90 degrees and spontaneously combust. And that's only if I'm lucky...
Well, geez Carrot, I didn't realize. I was only suggesting that you produce a witty comeback to Munz riddles (I like them btw) before you go ahead and get it right with a Google. It's all in good fun. You need a long beach iced tea and italian nacho extravaganza, I can tell!! Munz and I may have to have an intervention.
Not using Google kills... let's start a "Save Carrot's Brain" campaign ... we'll need a catchy logo...
That just makes me want to make more riddles.
answer pleeeeeeze
You are all tied in knots. Let go! Unwind! Let the thoughts flow. Who would name their children Piddles and Babs anyway? No wonder they are all tied up!
There is no answer, that is the only way I could gurantee Carrot would not Google it! Muwawawa
They're nicknames, Piddles is short of Pritchard and Babs is short for Bambinilina
Au contraire mon ami...
Piddles takes the wire of Bab's manacle where it crosses hers and tucks it through the loop enclosing one of her wrists (from back to front). She then pulls through more wire so that she has enough slack to pull the wire over her hand, slide it down the back and back through the loop front to back. She can now make her escape.
If you imagine that one of the wrist loops of her manacle contained no wrist at all then separating the two manacles is very obvious. Now add the wrist back in. All that is happening is that she pushes the wire through the loop and pulls it straight back out again, with a little detour to get round the wrist and hand.

The answer is in the Forum...
Google saves the day again...
I didn't realize we loathed riddles so much. I will try harder to impress. BTW, you had to do some fancy Googling to get that.
Life is like a box of Google ... you never know what you're going to get.
