Rrr. A mere flaw in my stump-the-world plan! Have we used the '-gry' riddle yet? (There are three words that end with "gry". Angry is one and hungry is another. What is the third word? Everyone uses it every day and Everyone knows what it means. If you have been listening, I have already told you what the word is.) Erklemuffins! I've heard this before, but I can't remember. Erm--gry?--I have no idea.  |

I'm pretty sure gry is a word, but not the answer to this riddle.
Wait a second...
gry
\Gry\, n. [Gr ? syllable, bit.] 1. A measure equal to one tenth of a line. [Obs.] --Locke.
2. Anything very small, or of little value. [R.]
Yup, it's a word, but not the answer. ^^

Wait a minute. . . you capitalized "Everyone", like it was a name. That has got to be key. . . somehow. . .

Okay, fine, I'm being mean. Here's a more modernized version of the riddle:
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, if you listened very carefully, I've given you the third word. What is it?
You have to get it now!

Oops, I deleted my message after I saw you emphasizing "one". For those of you who didn't hear, my guess was "it". Don't ask, just read.
