Okay, like the 'who am I?' thread, but its an object or something. You give a riddle and the person below has to solve it. K?

Here's mine, its kinda easy:
I am more kind than God and more evil than the devil.
The rich need me, yet no-one wants me.
The poor have nothing but me, and if you eat me, you will die.
What am I?

I think I might have it!!!

Is it...nothing?

Nothing is more kind than god
Nothing is more evil than the devil
The rich need nothing (which isnt exactly true...)
No-one wants nothing
The poor have nothing but nothing (again not exactly true)
If you eat nothing, you die!

Am I right?

Right as rain you are.

Okay, let's see...Kurtis, don't guess this one because you were the one that thought it

How can you take two from eleven and get something not odd?

Actually, I thought that riddle up in Skribblers. I'm trying to forget about that awful mad-house.

CS, well done!

You got my one and TRLara's riddle right!

Your good at these!

My turn

You can see me
You can poke a stick through me
If you put me in a box, the box will become lighter
What am I?

I'm not sure how hard this is...I can phrase clue 2 differently to make it a bit easier.

Umm, light?

Kurtis, did you say Skribblerz was a madhouse? How so?

Oh please!

If it had a few clowns and a donkey it would be a full-house circus!
Anyway, lets get back to riddle solving.

Nice guess, sort of fits all the clues, but it's not the one. When I say the box becomes lighter, I mean it decreases in weight.

Helium?

I don't get it, you can't add something to it and make it lighter!!! Is this another nothing thing?

Nope you can't see Helium.

And it's not nothing (you can't see that either).

Ok, like i said I'll make clue 2 a bit easier:

You can see me
You can put your hand through me if I'm big enough
If you put me in a box, the box will become lighter
What am I?

Umm, fire? You could put your hand in fire, but it's certainly a bad idea...You can see fire, and if you put the fire in the box, it will burn the box into ashes, therefore making the box lighter!
