Poke your fingers in my eyes and I will open wide my jaws. Linen cloth, quills, or paper, my greedy lust devours them all. What am I?
Common Wrong Answers
“Mouth”
A mouth does open wide when something is inserted, but it doesn't specifically cut or devour materials like linen or paper.
“Book”
A book can have pages that are turned or opened, but it doesn't have jaws or actively devour anything.
“Paper shredder”
While a paper shredder does cut paper, it doesn't have 'jaws' or the action of poking fingers in its eyes as described in the riddle.
