I turn polar bears white

And I will make you cry.

I make guys have to pee

And girls comb their hair.

I make celebrities look stupid

And normal people look like celebrities.

I turn pancakes brown

And make your champagne bubble.

If you squeeze me, I'll pop.

If you look at me, you'll pop.

Can you answer this riddle?

The answer isn’t “No”. I'm at a loss as to how "No" has been accepted and circulated as the correct answer. All riddles have an answer or means to solve them. Otherwise they’re not riddles, they’re a paradox. And, until the answer is revealed, you are “guessing” albeit making the best guess possible. And yes, you CAN "guess" or "solve" the riddle. The answer is "pressure” because:

“I turn polar bears white” indicates the increased pressure and heat (climate change) that is melting polar ice in the artic. Pressure makes people cry under stress. Pressure causes the guys to pee. Pressure causes the girls to comb their hair. Pressure causes stress for celebrities. Pressure causes normal people to look like celebrities (game shows, reality shows, heros on the news, etc). Pressure causes heat which turns pancakes brown. Pressure sqeezes CO2 into a champagne bottle for bubbles. Pressure, or squeezing something like a balloon will make it pop, but If you look at a handsome man or prettty woman, “you’ll pop!”, a distractor and play on the word "pop."

The CORRECT solution to the "I turn polar bears white" riddle...isn't "No" or some other answer that has been given over the last few years. I solved it and am sharing with everyone how I solved it, why No isn't the right answer, and why this riddle, like all others, really does have a satisfying answer that makes you say, "Ah ha!"

The answer to the riddle is "Pressure" because it fits all the given clues. Pressure can turn polar bears white (due to stress), make people cry (when feeling overwhelmed), make guys have to pee (pressure on the bladder), make girls comb their hair (feeling pressure to look good), make celebrities look stupid (pressure from the media), make normal people look like celebrities (pressure to conform to societal standards), turn pancakes brown (pressure from cooking), make champagne bubble (pressure inside the bottle), pop when squeezed (increase in pressure), and make someone pop when looked at (feeling intense pressure).
