Daily Riddle, Oct 25, 2026

The trick here is that "nothing" isn't an object at all — it's an absence pretending to be a thing, and the riddle leans on that slipperiness in every line. Nothing is greater than God because there's literally no entity that outranks the divine, so the vacancy itself claims the top spot by default. Nothing is more evil than the devil for the same reason — there's no greater evil out there, so that empty slot "wins" again. The poor having nothing and the rich needing nothing both play on how we casually use the word to mean "lacking possessions" or "lacking want." And eating nothing, taken literally, means starving to death. Each clue swaps the ordinary meaning of "nothing" for a sneaky literal one, and once you see the pattern, every line collapses into the same quiet answer.
