    As I can answer this one, I'm pretty sure they're not the same...

    Yeah, but you can't even <i>see</i> the ones that aren't surrounded by ice, becuase they're invisible.

    Think about <i>that</i> the next time you're chillin' downtown in August!!

    Woudn't a normal riddle ask as a final question, What am I or Who am I? This one simply says, guess the riddle. What riddle?

    Edit: ok I did some searching on Yahoo and this seems to be the correct answer as posted by someone.

    "This is pretty easy. The question is "What is the answer to this riddle? At the end of the riddle is the question-Can you guess the riddle?-Therfore the answer is to that question. So, whether you know it or not, your answer is either yes or no, but my guess is for all of us it is no :p The rest of it is just confusing to make you want to find an answer when the thing that makes all of those things happen isn't even the answer to the riddle. You are. (Or for people who don't get that, wheither or not you know what the dang thing is.)"


    I think he's right. The answer for everyone would simply be no.

    It doesn't do anything. That's the beauty of it.

    Mothers?

    Polar Bears have no hair when their born, only after their breast fed does their hair start to grow.

    Mom's faces get pissed on all the time by babies.

    Girls want to comb their hair like Mom.

    Celebrity Mom's make celebrities blush and some even embarrass them.
    Normal people are celebrities to their moms.

    Pancakes.

    Squeeze a mom and she often emits some corny noise (e.g. ohhh, ahhh, is that a banana in your pocket or...)

    If you stare at your mom she will pop you.

    :confused:

    I turn polar bears white - Sun provides light
    and I will make you cry - Staring at the sun causes your eyes to water
    I make guys have to pee - Sun provides enough heat to allow water for
    and girls comb their hair. - Sunlight affects humidity levels and so the the hair becomes frizzy.
    I make celebrities look stupid - The SUN
    and normal people look like celebrities. - Suntan
    I turn pancakes brown - Sun provides enough heat to cook pancakes.
    and make your champane bubble - Sun provides enough energy to make the reaction spontaneous
    If you sqeeze me, I'll pop - Solar Flares
    If you look at me, you'll pop - You will go blind.
    Can you guess the riddle? Yes ;) It all depends on how you approach a problem

    It's more powerful than God.
    It's more evil than the Devil.
    The poor have it.
    The rich need it.
    If you eat it you will die.
    What is the word???



    this is the riddle that I have heard , with the same claim that 5% of adults cant figure it out but 95% of children solved it within minutes...


    the answer to this one makes more sense than than the one this thread is about... and someone has already said the answer...

    who believes anything they see on the internet anymore? who believes these studies , polls and surveys?... im very skeptical lately...

    I've heard that one too.

    I wouldn't be surprised if most of the polls, studies, and surveys you hear over the internet and in your email are totally fabricated. That's why Snopes is such a valuable resource.

    I think the statistics are bogus. 84% of kindergarteners get the answer right? I don't know many 5 year olds that even can comprehend the questions being asked.
    They would be like... what is a celebrity? What is champagne? What is a polar bear?

    That one actually has an answer (just in case anyone was wondering). They each spent $9 total, with the tip already included.

    Spent $30 originally, got $5 refunded, then gave $2 back to the hotel = $27.

    As for the riddle this thread is about...I'm gonna have to agree with everyone else and say that it has no answer.

    Which is why I think they would say "there is no answer," whereas, Harvard guys would actually sit there, trying to figure it out.

    It's kinda the same thing that happens with the riddle across110thstreet posted.
