Incorrect, but thanks for playing.

There is something which is true of each of those lines (as an individual line) which is also true of "four".

And today's new riddle-ku:

They carry most things
They are easy to carry
You can't lift one.

Infi ... I have no idea.

Since this thread went fuck all to hell (Imma start a thread about starting threads and then not playing, then I'm not going to post in it!)

Anyhoo, a further hint. Non-merkins won't know it. Merkins will ignore it. So fuck it.

There, now it's googlable.

ZenGum · 09-12-2011, 11:32 PM

So I googled. The first hit is your post!

None of the others made much sense, but I'll stab in the dark:

Hee Haw.

Enough already WTF is it

SPOILER ALERT

These are numerical expressions whose numerical value is equal to the number of letters it takes to express them in words.

"Four" is the only natural interger this is true of, but I found these improper fractions to which it also applies.

Was it worth it?
