Good morning, Member 👋

Hey there, friends! 👋 Does this happen to you, too? You pick up your phone to check one thing, and before you know it, you've spent way more time scrolling than you planned. 😄 That happened to me the other day, and I came across a video that made me laugh out loud. I had to share it with you! Take a look, and then tell us in the forum: What's the funniest thing you've seen lately?

In yesterday’s riddle: The more of this there is, the less you see. What is it?

The answer is darkness, and these clever Riddle Masters got it correct! 🎊

For you next challenge, unscramble the word G T H R E N S T
