Question

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.

No hints unless no one gets it

I think the concept is supposed to be there is less atmospheric pressure in the poles so it is colder and therefore polar bears have white hair or something like that.

But if you look at pressure you won't pop.

To look at the actual pressure, you have to be in it. If you are in the pressure, it will make you pop. Of course, you can't see the pressure even if you are looking at it, only the results of the pressure, so whatever.

"Time"

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.

(...and I will make you cry.)

As time is held boys cross their legs but of course the toilet begs

(...I make guys have to pee)

As time marches on Girls loose their blush and swap a comb for their brush

(...and 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

(...and 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

(...and make your champane bubble.)

As time runs out The more in a minute you try and squeeze the less you can do with ease.

(...If you sqeeze 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. )

Time is the answer

is it pressure??? i'm not sure if this is right, but polar bears live at the poles, so that might be the pressure that makes them white, and you might cry under pressure, and pressure makes girls comb their hair...

If the right answer is no, then by saying you cannot solve the riddle,you are actually solving the riddle, thus creating a paradox. I honestly don't see how pressure fits some of the verses, but I think Terry71's answer is pretty good.

Quote from Martini/bonanova (can't remember which)

"Pressure doesn't make pancakes turn brown. Heat does. Have you ever pushed down on a pancake on a cold stove."

"Pressure doesn't make polar bear's fur turn white. Genetics does."
