![]() Pimples don't make guys pee, girls comb their hair, pancakes turn brown, champagne bubble, and you won't pop if you see it.
The sun was my first thought, but it doesn't make guys pee, girls comb their hair, it won't pop if you squeeze it, it doesn't mad champagne bubble... Note: I have also not figured it out yet. |

That makes it nowhere near the "world's greatest" riddle. Also, some basic internet research shows that you told it wrong, and the riddle is supposed to end with "Can you guess the riddle?" to which the "correct" answer that the kids all get is "No" Last edited by devonin; 04-26-2008 at 06:49 PM.. |

![]() But you won't pop by looking at it. And it doesn't make normal people look like celebrities and celebrities look stupid.
@ devonin: that seems like a defense mechanism. Last edited by rzr; 04-26-2008 at 06:50 PM.. |

![]() im dont understand how you only have a small section of the riddle
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 champane bubble. If you sqeeze me, I'll pop. If you look at me, you'll pop. Can you guess the riddle? people think the answer to this riddle is yes or no because of the last line and 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 champane bubble. If you squeeze me, I'll pop. If you look at me, you'll pop. without the last line, people think the answer would be time. EDIT: devonin ninja'd the **** outta me |

![]() And people only seem to think the answer is "Time" based on some obscure children's rhyme that they all quote, but never give a title or author or source for that I haven't been able to track down. As an aside, the rhyme apparantly goes:

![]() I saw a vid with all those poems for the answer and at the end it said Neil Gaiman makes pretty good riddles.
But i haven't done any research so i have no idea if thats really the person that came up with it or not =/ http://www.metacafe.com/watch/366280...ardest_riddle/ |

![]() Mmmk, I'll make a thread with it. I'm just trying to put all the pieces together first so people don't try and get me on technicalities. I myself haven't figured it out since I was told it in 8th grade.
P.S. I'm not in 11th. |
