ThE WoRlD's 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 repost this bulletin 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
80% of new A2K posters have this as their first post.
Well it seems like it sometimes - it's been posted maybe 50 times this year alone.
Welcome to A2K.
Either "Yes" or "No" would be correct answers. "Nothing" kinda-sorta would work, too, but the preferred answer is "No"; the only question asked is "Can you guess the riddle?". "Yes" and "No" each satisfy the question, which in and of itself calls for no further exposition. "Nothing", however, adequately addresses all points of the riddle as a whole, so, as said, it "kinda-sorta" works. "No" works best; "No, I can't guess the riddle".

How about "maybe" as an answer?
What if you're the type with secret powers you want to keep others guessing about?
huh, what about that?
I thought about "Maybe", decided that was an equivocation, not an answer; "answer" as used in the question implies - not necessarilly entails, but implies - that the question need be satisfied through declaration in the affirmative or negative. IMO, of course.
oh, yeah, I forgot the equivocation clause.
sorrry....carry on.

The World's Hardest Riddle

Welcome to A2K ace
the worlds hardest riddle
i have no idea but can you tell me the answer
He did. He said "no".
On the other hand there might be another answer that fits.
Think about it for awhile. You might be surprised and figure it out. I did, so anyone could.
