Pencil.
I'm not a programmer. My attitude starts with ignorance, holds steady at conversation, and ends with a trip to the hospital. Get used to it.

It is practically impossible to teach good programming style to students that have had prior exposure to Basic; as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration.

i don't understand how everyone is getting them right on the first try.

me and you both Duki.
I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough. -The Notebook

It lives without a body, hears without ears, speaks without a mouth, and is born in air.

What is it?

sign language?

I think most of the ones people get on the first try come from a bit of thinking or just being familiar with the riddle. Though I wouldn't completely discount the effects of a quick google search
