This one is painfully obvious. There are going to be some people rolling their eyes at this one!
Anyway, say you are laying in your bed and it is dark as pitch. On your bedside table, you have three items; a watch, a glass of water, and your lenses. How do you grab the glass of water without touching either the glass of water or the watch.
REMEMBER: It is COMPLETELY dark in there. You can't even see your hand in front of your face.
You can't touch the watch or the glass of water.
And no, the watch's hands are not glow-in-the-dark.

You can not grab the glass of water without touching it.
It would however help to see what you were doing if you got out of bed and turned the light on.

Okay, i don't know what happened to the lenses in your riddle but i guess that they were on the bedside table....so since your riddle is messed up, I guess you DREAM about grabbing the glass of water, since your in bed and all and I guess you're ready for bed.

Well, if you can't touch the glass of water, you cannot grab it either, as this constitutes as touching. So, you cannot touch it at all. Not unless you used another instrument to pick it up, but as there is nothing else described, its impossible.

You can't, you are trying to grab the glass of water while not trying to touch the glass of water.

even in the dark, i would know roughly where abouts my bedside table is, so id use my hands to stumble in the dark towards it making sure as to not spill the glass of water over in the clumsy attempt, and then find the water.
im gna bed cos its 4.27 in the morning and im too addicted to this problem solving stuff

Okay, give the answer. Because I would reach for it gently until I found what I was looking for or turn on the light or use a flashlight.
