Title: NEW RIDDLE
Post by: DUNJA WRBKA on May 22, 2008, 08:42:30 AM
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 guess the riddle?
