The Great Giraffe Challenge

Did you answer the great giraffe challenge?

I posted it in my Facebook page and personal account to know how many will react to the question, take the challenge or just simply read and listen.

For those who has not encountered it, it went viral on October 28, 2013 and here how it goes:

"Try the great giraffe challenge! Comment if you have already sent a message. The deal is I give you a riddle. You get it right you get to keep your profile pic. You get it wrong and you change your profile pic to a Giraffe for the next 3 days. MESSAGE ME ONLY SO YOU DONT GIVE OUT THE ANSWER. Here is the riddle: 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? Remember... message me only. If you get it right I'll post your name here. If you get it wrong change your profile pic into a giraffe. Just for fun!"

So a few did not follow the instructions and placed their answer on the comment box, while some sent a message asking for the answer and said, they will not change their profile if they get the correct answer but they are just curious what the answer will be. Some will bribe, some will bargain but what is the challenge all about?

The test is originally just for fun. Especially that the answer to the question seems not to be philosophically and logically correct. The answer according to the person who sent me the riddle is EYES. Other says the answer should have been the DOOR.

I personally answered EYES and the DOOR to my brother who I first saw the riddle but changed my answer to DOOR when I saw the same post through my cousin. So there you go, I became a giraffe for 3 days.

A lot of my Facebook friends became giraffes that day. Some did not change their profiles. Some just ignored the challenge.  In my Facebook page, a total of 490 Facebook accounts saw the post (since you can see the number of people reach if you have a webpage), only 55 answered the riddle, 20 of them had the correct answer. What happened to the other accounts who saw the riddle? They either ignored the post, did not really see the post or was too afraid to answer the riddle and that probably they will be a giraffe.

One of my respondents said, I won't allow myself to be a giraffe for such a stupid riddle. Another said, the answer is not correct. One even asked me, if I invented the riddle.

Well, all I know is that in this world of social media, if you are not open minded and you are full of judgement, try to do away with the internet.  The internet is a world of different opinions, different behaviors and different beliefs. Social media as it typically states is mingling with other people in this digital world.

Take everything as a fun experience.
