by Why Riddles And Puzzles Might Be the Funniest Part of Your Week
Riddles and puzzles are how we trick our brains into thinking they’re doing CrossFit. One minute you’re confidently solving a crossword, and the next you’re six clues deep into a spiral of self-doubt and yelling “What’s a six-letter word for failure?” at your cat. Escape rooms take this further–paying $35 to get locked in a room with coworkers and argue about whether a paperclip is a clue or just poor janitorial work. The last time someone solved a Sudoku at your house, they needed therapy afterward. Puzzles: turning quiet afternoons into quiet meltdowns.
