Daily Riddle, Sep 18, 2026

The trick here is that every clue is quietly leaning on the word "nothing" rather than describing an actual thing. Nothing is greater than God because there's no ceiling above the greatest being imaginable — nothing tops it. Nothing is more evil than the devil for the same reason, working from the bottom instead of the top. The poor have nothing because they lack possessions, and the rich need nothing because they already have everything they require. And if you eat nothing, you'll eventually die, since food is kind of essential. Each line reads like it wants a noun — some object or substance — but the riddle is really testing whether you'll notice it's describing an absence the whole time. Once "nothing" clicks into place, every clue snaps into alignment at once.
