it's one with no answer

it's made to give to college kids on an entrance exam to see what creative answers they come up with the guess thought patterns.



I heard a riddle the other that 80% of kindergarten kids answered but only 15% of harvard freshman could figure out:

what's greater than god
more powerful than the devil
rich people want it
poor people have it
and if you eat it, you'll die

The riddle is derived from the children's poem below.

---------------------------------

TIME

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.

Can you guess the riddle?

Pressure doesn't make sense on all of them.

Polar bears are white because of their environment (just like zebras have stripes for protection, and lizards can change colors)

How does pressure make normal people look like celebrities?

Don't know about pancakes, assumed it was heat?

Squezing pressure makes it pop, damn I will have to stop giving my air compresser a goodnight hug now.

Looking at pressure makes you pop? how?

Listen. Its a trick. I dont even think its a real riddle. The common answer found around the internet is:

NO

Can you guess the riddle: NO

pressure causes polar bears white for warmth

pressure on celeberties would make them want to blend in to the normal world ;)

you put a plastic bag under pressure and it can pop

you can be in an air plane and your ears pop from pressure

Pressure is most logical :)

and pressure on normal people peer pressure trying to fit in maybe copying a celebertie with cloths and what not

The riddle never asks "what am I".It asks "can you guess the riddle".To me the answer would be either yes or no.Maybe I am not looking deep enough :confused:

Time makes more sense than pressure, but there probably isn't a right answer, just speculation.

White does the opposite of collecting warmth. Black is what collects warmth, which is what color their skin is (ironically enough, just looked it up) Their fur is actually white or almost translucent, it aids them in hunting seals. Everything else you said is a stretch.
