Why oh why do people feel compelled to comment on a question, but have no intention of answering it?

Question

I aksed a question about the EU some may not think it's that fasinating, but whether you like it on or not it's a topical issue.

So why does some dumb @rse say 'ever heard the word please. I am having fun on my laptop I am not in an exam.' Well don't answer it.

.... oh and for the record I'm British and by default I say please and thank-you. I also give up my seat on a bus if there's an elderly person standing
.
I also have a brain.

Grrrrrrrr!

Answer 1

Some people are just rude. I apologize; most of them are probably from the country I am slightly ashamed to call home: the United States of America. They have brains, but they just don't care to use them. (I say why not donate them to a more worthy owner, such as the scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz?) Upsetting, right? Some people are so dumb and are just trying to rack up points here on Yahoo! Answers for the sake of doing it.

I will admit that I don't know what you're talking about when you say EU unless you're talking about the Expanded Universe of Star Wars, but I for one will not answer questions unless I know remotely what the questioner is looking for.

But that wasn't what this question was about. I've learned to accept the fact that people are stupid, rude, ignorant, so forth...I live in the Southeastern US. There's nothing more irritating than the idiocy that one can see down here. You've just got to ignore it, hard as it is. Take it from a person who's dealt with fifteen years worth of purebred, natural ignorance.

Answer 2

No. what's feeble most of the time is what passes off as "good judgment" via an infinite variety on the two aspects. If there exchange right into a survey taken heavily and with connection with reality and a suitable attention of the implications for violating it with entire impunity as such multiple in here do on a on a daily basis foundation, the type of formal and casual fallacies on my own dedicated in this section could warrant shutting it down perpetually.

Answer 3

unfortunetly there are a lot of people on this site that do not take it seriously, I assume they just have to much time on their hand or simply want the points. This sight would be so much better if people took the questions seriously. I have no problem with people having fun, but when a serious question is asked it deserves a serious answer

Answer 4

Calm down, and don't take this cr@p so seriously!

As an answer (not a comment) I would say sometimes the question is rhetorical, and a comment is the only appropriate response. I did not see the one you are upset about, so I do not know if this is the case, but it at least is an answer!

Smile!

Answer 5

I also hate it when they do that especially when they put down the question you have asked. They may not have an interest in it but others do. They are just gaming for points, report them for gaming for points, if they pass a comment rather than answer.

Answer 6

I agree with your point however, being British does not meen you have manners by default, there are plenty of rude and bad mannered brits around. By the way, what was the EU question?

Answer 7

Because some questions dont deserve proper answering due to their stupidity or bad manner in asking. I didnt see your question so i cant comment on yours specifically. However I have seen some others that are a waste of space.

Answer 8

It's probably cos people like to give their opinions rather than just answering the question

Answer 9

It doesn't make a lot of sense, does it? It's especially annoying when they spew out a lot of gutter talk.
I also say please and thank you, spell check my answers, and even use the odd bit of punctuation.
I think some of them are embarrassed because they truly don't know what you are talking about...

Take jooker's advice, sweetie, and give her the 10 points for the best answer.
