    Default A Riddle That'll Kill Your Brain!

    A RIDDLE THAT'LL KILL YOUR BRAIN!

    This is going to make you so MAD!

    Think of words ending in -GRY.

    Angry and hungry are two of them.

    There are only three words in

    the English language.

    What is the third word?

    The word is something that everyone uses every day.

    If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.

    What is it?
    Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I´m not so sure about the universe.

    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    There are 2 answers.
    If "gry" denotes the sound "gree", then the third word is "agree".
    If the order of the letters is not important, then the third word is "energy".
    A third option"
    Gry is a word. It is a measurement from the printing industry equal to 1/120th of an inch.

    It only takes one drink to get me loaded. Trouble is, I can't remember if it's the thirteenth or fourteenth.

    another clever variation on the spell "it' skip thinking stuff.
    the english language is a clever little language, it's not what you say, it's what you don't say that's why it's such a versatile language

    catchy catchphrase needed here, apply in writing to the above .
