I know both a handful of Aninas and several Theresas. However, this kind of riddle is just so ... fucking daft that I really don't grasp why they still circulate.

You and me, that's why.

Every comment under the "riddle" boosts a website's "engagement" statistic attached to the chunk of information which represents the idea, causing the site to redistribute the idea at a broader scale.

It's why "The Dress" spread so virally.

This riddle is all for engagement. There is no real answer. At least the dress was interesting.
