A RIDDLE THAT'LL KILL YOUR BRAIN!
This is going to make you so MAD! There are three words in the English language that end in "gry". ONE is angry and the other is hungry. EveryONE knows what the third ONE means and what it stands for. EveryONE uses them everyday, and if you listened very carefully, I've given you the third word. What is it? _______gry?

It is a trick question, but there is another gry ..for the person that posts this riddle...
nugry
/n[y]oo'gree/ [Usenet, 'newbie' + '-gry'] `. n. A
newbie who posts a variant of the notorious and unanswerable "What, besides `angry' and `hungry', is the third common English word that ends in -GRY?".
Least that was what I found in my search.. good for Lee

oh  hee hee
Well, they didn't word it right. They should have wrote:
There are three words in the English language that end with "gry." One is hungry and the other is angry. What is the third word? Everyone uses this word every day, everyone knows what it means, and knows what it stands for. If you have listened very closely I have already told you the third word.

gry - "Angry" and "hungry" are two words that end in "gry". There are three words in the English language. What is the third word? Everyone knows what it means and everyone uses it every day. Look closely and I have already given you the third word. What is it?
Answer: "language".

it's a trick question, it changes meaning halfway through...there are three words in the English language that end in gry. What is the third word. the main question is three words in "the English Language" angry and hungry are irrlelevant...language is the third word in "the English language"

I am afraid I won't be able to answer this, considering the fact that I am in a state of being alone and unhappy. Sorry, I guess I'll have to try later.

There are at least four other unique words besides angry and hungry but they are not in all dictionaries...... and yes, I already gave you one of the answers.

A measure equal to one tenth of a line
So is this used when 10 cokeheads want to share a line?
9th Cokehead: "Hey what the hell, theres not two GRYS left here!"
