I grow tired of waiting this out. I really did not expect, nor want, for the riddle to go unsolved so long. Ergo, your answer:
Spoiler:
The answer is in the riddle. It is comprised of FOUR sentences. One of which, incidentally, ends in -gry. Hence the reason the lack of ability to think laterally and grasp the answer has been annoying me.There are three words in the English language that end in the letters 'gry'. The first two are angry and hungry. The third is something that you use every day. The answer is in the riddle.
Well, the average English-speaking human, barring mutes, uses a sentence ending in either the word angry or hungry, and, therefore, -gry, every day. And it is quite obvious from the riddle thread how true that last part of this clue is.think of something the average human being uses every day that is also used in the riddle itself. It does indeed end in g-r-y, and the letters are indeed in that exact order. It's just not what you at first would think.
Of course it was a trick question, but it wasn't what you expected, now, was it? The rest of this clue has already been explained.OK...you already know the word must end in -gry. yes, ONLY those three letters, and only in that order. it IS a trick question, in a manner of speaking. you DO use it every day, if you aren't mute; it is a way any average american or brit expresses him/herself in a certain situation thus given to speak. it is NOT a trick in the sense of it being something absurd such as a number or a word actually quoted in the riddle, although i would assume the correct letters are there in some sequence as they're all fairly common letters; however this is irrelevant. this is really all the more information i'm willing to purvey.
Well, the word sentence does not contain any of those three letters, yet a sentence can end in -gry.to really fuck with you, i should tell you that the answer actually contains none of those three letters at all, and yet, ends in them. let's see what literary genius hits the jackpot.
I remember this douchebag Joey Fike telling me the answer to the riddle was "hand", which makes no sense no matter how you put it. That night, as I sat at home pondering what the answer could really be, I mentioned to my mom that, of course, "I'm hungry", which I realized was a sentence, which is something we use every day, and that, furthermore, was a sentence ending in -gry, which is also something we use every day.lmao sorry. honestly, it took me almost three years to get the answer when it was posed to me. i was sitting, staring at it on a piece of paper, trying to figure out some form of bullshit or buggery that was eluding my grasp, and all of a sudden a certain thought related to the riddle popped into my head and i told my mom what it was, then a light bulb went off and i was like, "holy shit! THAT'S the answer!!" (yes, that post was actually a clue)
The first four sentences have been explained already. The fifth is self-evident. It makes perfect sense when revealed; it makes no sense to the shallow mind because that mind is incapable of thinking cross-laterally. Ironically, that very inability to think cross-laterally prevents one from seeing the true point of me making that statement about shallow minds, causing one to view it as an insult instead of a clue. The rest is either explained above or self-evident.so i'm gonna be as nice as I can be...no, i'm not giving away the answer.
The answer ends in -gry. The answer does not end in -gry. It is something you use every day. It is used in the riddle itself. It is not named in the riddle. It makes no sense to a shallow mind. It will make perfect sense when the answer is revealed. Before you ask: yes, technically there are multiple answers. However, in the context of the riddle, there is but one. Therefore, there is one answer, that you have heard before, that you are seeing right now as you read, that you say/use every day, that not only ends in -gry but does not contain a single one of those letters. It will remain elusive, I'm sure, but I daren't give any other clues. i would have to give out the answer to make you see.
Well, fuck, how much of a leap does it take, friends and neighbors, from words to that which they compose, sentence?Therefore, no, "words" is incorrect.
Valiant, effort, nevertheless, to think laterally.
(this should give it dead the fuck away, being the only indirect clue i've given. wouldn't you think that fact would be a clue unto itself?)
This has been explained already.the answer does not *ahem* always end in -gry.
If you're still having problems working out to come to that conclusion, PM me, but I really don't see how I could make any of the above matters more clear.
