As many users of facebook may have noticed there have been posts of a giraffe on facebook. No giraffes are not endangered. They are part of a meme that is floating around.
The meme invites users to share a riddle with their friends, who then are supposed to send a private message with the answer (don't post it in the comments, obviously). Any user who guesses wrong must agree to change his or her profile photo with one of a giraffe.
Why a giraffe? It's not clear.
The riddle goes like this:
3:00 am, the doorbell rings, and you wake up. Unexpected visitors. It's your parents and they are there for breakfast. You have strawberry jam, honey, wine, bread and cheese. What is the first thing you open?
(Spoiler alert: The answer is at the bottom of this story.)
Most users agree there are two acceptable answers, although given that Facebook is an unruly community of 1.2 billion people, there's some debate over that.
Judging by some comments on Facebook, some users are growing tired of the giraffe riddle. Others are making jokes."If anyone shows up at my house at 3 am they had better get a hotel because I'm not answering the door,"
The answer: The door and your eyes.
