Teaching GPT-3 to Identify Nonsense

If someone could set GPT-3 up with a bunch of known riddles as a prompt, and then ask it an entirely novel riddle which it would have never trained on, I would love to see the result.

Oh, I thought you said generating new riddles. Most of them were crap, but this is the best it came up with.

  I have no face, but I have hands and feet. I have no mouth, but I have hair. What am I?
  A shadow

Edit: got a few more good ones:

  What can I eat but can’t swallow? 
  Air
  What is it that no one can see? 
  Light
  What is it that you can’t see unless you close your eyes? 
  Darkness

Obligatory: these might already exist, I've just never heard them before

as another datapoint, I don’t think those riddles particularly good; their answers seem nonsensical, or in the case of the first two, even to posses qualities entirely opposite those the riddles require.

E: referring to the three in your edit.
