    first of all the riddle is wrong and second of all at the end it should say
    can you answer the riddle
    and the answer would be
    no

    It’s not pressure, it’s ripped off a poem, and the answer is time

    The answer is ‘NO’

    as in ‘No, i cannot answer this riddle’
    That is the question being asked here. If it was water or pressure, the question would have to be something like ‘What is the one thing you could very very very loosely associate with all the above?’

    That isnt the question

    the answer is ‘no’

    The time has come,
    winter is here
    and those yellow bears disapear. (I turn polar bears white)

    The time has past
    as man looks back with a sigh
    and a tear in his eye. (I will make you cry)

    As time is held
    boys cross their legs
    but of course the toilet begs (I will make you have to pee)

    As time marches on
    Girls loose their blush
    and swap a comb for their brush (I make girls comb their hair)

    As time passes
    For those held high
    their end is nigh (I make celebrities look stupid)

    As time catches up
    Everyone is equal
    when we get to the final sequal (I make normal people look like celebrities)

    As time turns
    Without it we have flour and water
    With it we have breakfast for my daughter (I turn pancakes brown)

    As time revolves
    How does one turn water and wine
    into something so fine (I make champagne bubble)

    As time runs out
    The more in a minute you try and squeeze
    the less you can do with ease. (If you try to squeeze me,I’ll pop)

    As time ticks
    All the time that has past
    man cannot comprehand something so vast. (If you look at me, you’ll pop)

    Yeah, the correlation between this riddle and that poem is blatantly, painfully, excrutiatingly obvious…but I swear that there are people who could look at the Earth from space and still insist that it’s flat.

    no the real answer is nothing. thats why the real question says 95% of Harvard students cant figure this out within 5 minutes, but 100% of kinder-gardeners can figure it out within 5 minutes. The Harvard students think about it and think about it, but kinder-gardeners just give up and say no. No one thing can really do all of all that. time is the best answer, but if you look at time (im just thinking of a clock) than you do not pop, and you can not squeeze time. the poem was written after the riddle made its way around and more people knew it but couldnt figure it out, because than the writter (i forget who it was sorry) would get the money from everyone wanting to know ‘the answer’ which is not the answer at all. Time is a very good answer and pressure is an ok answer but this is why its a riddle, because the answer to the question ‘can you answer this riddle’ is ‘no’.

    I beg to differ, it doesn’t matter what the subject is, if I know that I’m right, it’s very important to me

    i thought that the answer was *time*

    the answer is pressure you dippy, does water explode when you squeeze it, or do you explode when you look at water?

    everyone that said the answer is no was correct.

    This is a very famous riddle and it is supposed to include “Do you know the answer to this riddle?” at the end.

    It isn’t water because that simply does not work.

    It isn’t pressure because that, once again doesn’t work (turning polar bears white, if you look at me you’ll pop).

    Time makes a lot of sense but it vaguely explains most things and the bits about popping still do not make sense.

    do a quick google search of ” 95% of Harvard Students Can’t Answer This ” and you’ll see
