Don't you really need context, an understanding of values and possibly some history to offer valid advice on 'real' questions?

You need all those things to offer "valid advice"; however, people using Yahoo! ANSWERS are not necessarily looking for a friend who could offer valid advice to real questions. They are bored people stuck at their computer. Uh Oh, time to sign off.

most questions are very easily answered without having too much information about the person asking. and if there is a question, you - the person answering - ask. I like to answer questions that other people have. I'm able to give raw advice without knowing to much about the person. It's like a person who is on the outside looking in. It's easier to do it this way. Sometimes you just need advice from a total stranger rather than your best friend

these things are not solid professional advices,answers.but people still like to take out their frustrations and unsolveds or curiocity to any happy answering invisible strangers why?, we know that manytimes strangers have answers and chances of hopes to something which even professionals do not.we also generally ask our friends delibrately knowing they can't have few clues to help.now,can u see its all about giving short break to what u are dragging.you get to lay down some weight. otherwise its a good social fun.

Mostly for points. But personally I don't ask personal stuff on here.Just look for basic answers to basic questions with the knowledge it is media or advertisement based like in magazines or websites.

in the event that they'd communicate i'm particular their concentration could be on themselves....very similar to us I anticipate. you need to be drunk stoned and butt bare and the dogs finding surprisingly at you is probable thinking " ask your self whether they have been given any further beef chop bones? "

if you didn't want off the wall comments you would give all the info needed to get the answer you want and you wouldn't post it here

It's a way of safely venting with no repercussions.

Because - we can... you put the questions others awners it... it's an outside source that you can listen to or ignore your choice...
