The Essence of Brevity

Sep 06, 2022

This puzzler is the essence of brevity.

We will just get right into it, no need to drag it out. Ready?

My son's father is your father's only child. What relative of yours am I?

That's it. That's the whole thing. This is sort of like the "Whose on first? Whose on third" type riddles. 

Brevity! Gotta love that part of it.

 

Answer: 

Okay, simple little riddle. Very short and sweet, this one is. 

My son's father is your father's only child. This person is speaking to you. What relative of yours am I?

These little ones are so fun, because you have to think about them a lot. They are not easy. 

So what relative of yours am I?

I am your wife. 

That's the answer. Sorry for you, if I'm your wife! Ha! But that is the answer.
