THE WORLDS HARDEST 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?


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? Just forward this with the title "The World's Hardest Riddle", and then check your inbox. You'll get a message with the correct answer
in it. Good luck


This has been going around on facebook and i've seen it a couple of times but can't seem to figure out what it is... can anyone here figure it out? maybe someone with a child in kindergarten?

I remember this one, but that answer doesn't make sense.

There is no way a 6 year old would say time. Made up statistics are great.

Pressure, Gravity, or Force also, nothing a 6 year old would say.

85% of all statistics are made up. Including the sentence before this one.

The poem it refers to is one by Neil Gaiman, the reason a 6 year old would know is because it is taught to them.

The poem written by Neil Gaiman that supports my answer.

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

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 sequel

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 comprehend something so vast.
