The World's Hardest Riddle

[skymama 37]

My daughter got this in an e-mail. If you Google it, you'll find the answer (that's what I did ) but see if you can figure it out yourself!

I turn polar bears white
and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champagne bubble.
If you squeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.
Can you guess the riddle?


97% of Harvard graduates can not figure this riddle out, but 84% of kindergarten students were able to figure this out in 6 minutes or less. Can you guess the correct answer?

She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man,
because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

A man will do anything for the right woman,
and when that woman destroys him,
that man will become a hunk of meat with the common sense of a rodeo clown! ~ Christopher Titus

The answer is....Time.
The riddle is from a children's poem. Here it is:

The time has come,
winter is here
and those yellow bears disapear.

The time has past
as man looks back with a sigh
and a tear in his eye.

As time is held
boys cross their legs
but of course the toilet begs

As time marches on
Girls loose their blush
and swap a comb for their brush

As time passes
For those held high
their end is nigh

As time catches up
Everyone is equal
when we get to the final sequal

As time turns
Without it we have flour and water
With it we have breakfast for my daughter

As time revolves
How does one turn water and wine
into something so fine

As time runs out
The more in a minute you try and squeeze
the less you can do with ease.

As time ticks
All the time that has past
man cannot comprehand something so vast.

She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man,
because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon

Sorry, but that makes no sense. I think Mayberry had the right answer, which is what I thought as well.

No way would kindergarteners come up with that answer.

And if I "look at time", I'll pop? Good thing that's pretty much impossible.

[Mayberry 0]

We must have the minds of a Harvard graduate, or a 7 year old.

oh god that's lame. that barely makes sense. If time applies to that riddle then you could change half the words and it would still work.

[atree 0]

That's lame. Time barely makes sense for that riddle. You could replace half the words and it wouldn't make a difference. EVERYTHING comes in time.

[SpeedRacer 1]

You can say that again!

That is Bar none, the worst riddle ever. The answer to a riddle is supposed to make sense, even in an obscure way, everyone should see it when they see the answer. That was just stupid.

WTF, "if you look at me, you pop?" I don't pop if I look at time? how dumb is that, no wonder smart people don't get it, there's nothing to get. What a waste of a good effort.

QQ, now go away.

LOL...I didn't make up the riddle, don't blame me! I don't even think it's the "world's hardest riddle". I just kept the subject the same way it came in the e-mail so that if someone did a search to see if it's been posted, it would be the same. I don't think the last line makes much sense either.

Ok, here's a cooler sounding riddle with the same answer. I think it makes more sense, too.

"This thing all things devours
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers

Gnaws iron, bites steel,
Grinds hard stones to meal,

Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down!"

Bonus points for naming the book it's from.

Provoking a reaction isn't the same thing as saying something meaningful.

Ok,so there are these two guys.One is standing at the edge of a 100 story building and the other is getting a blowjob from a 100 yr old woman.They are both thinking the same thing.

What are they thinking?

Unless you are wearing a parachute! Ehhh, and since the story implies a corellation between the age of the woman and the height of the building... well, I figure I can jump a 18-storey building sort of OK. Now where do I get a woman that age?
