A fish? (Not sure how we'd know if we are right or not...)

A box without hinges, key or lid, yet golden treasure inside is hid.
What am I?

I have a job but don't work, your time i waste, very little i do, truly helps this place.

I make jokes and laugh, but your humor i can't handle, I've overseen oh so much drama and scandal.

Dialogue and plot, are things i know not, and depth and free form aren't for me.

But watching and listening, and hoping and missing, are certainly things for thee.

I captain a ship, with a lack luster crew, who spend all their time in the dark, 1/8 are trying, 1/2 are lying and the others have fallen to shark.

We try and we miss, we shrug and you hiss, but when we have gifts, our asses you'll kiss.

Repitition again, and again and again, Repitition again, and again.

Over your eyes a veil i pull, to make you see more then there is.

That which is 'new' is old with fresh paint, lack-luster indeed and then theres a taint.

I grin as my paycheck comes at the end of the day.

For those of you here who love what they may,

No matter what happens we all know you'll stay. 

Those that don't, don't matter today.

It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.

a towel.


Decapitate me and all becomes equal. Then truncate me and I become second. Cut me front and back and I become two less than I started.

What am I?

Although darkness makes sense for some of these, I thought the answer was silence. And whats with all of the Hobbit riddles?

The only one I can think of right now isn't really a riddle. More like a brain teaser as it requires a long answer. I can post it if someone wants.

I never was, am always to be,
No one ever saw me, nor ever will
And yet I am the confidence of all
To live and breathe on this terrestrial ball.
