Genuine questions.

NOT easy two-pointers. Who cares about these points anyway?

I'm assuming you mean, What is my favorite type of question?

I like questions that elicit new information or interesting ideas and insights, or the sharing of unbiased opinions. Like this one.

I hate questions that serve only as a soapbox for a biased, opinionated, prejudiced asker, that go over material that has been covered hundreds of times already (oh, god, not another Harry Potter question); that are unclear and poorly worded; and/or that sound like teenagers exchanging innuendos in a chat room or a bathroom.

I answer questions ONLY when I think the asker might really be interested in my answer (might even make use of it); when I think my answer will differ somewhat, perhaps significantly, from others'; and usually when the topic is a new one for me, one that I'm willing to spend a few minutes of my time focusing on in writing.

Sometimes, though rarely, I answer bad questions because I think I may be able to help the asker see how to improve. (It doesn't work, but it's fun! After all, I am a teacher at heart.)

If you want to know my favorite specific question, here are a few that I remember:

What is your favorite fox character in fiction?
I am in my early 40's and want to know how to move from corporate america to teaching middle grades?
When buying books on amazon.com, what is the difference between a "mass-market paperback" and a regular?
Can anyone recommend any good books about king arthur?
What is your favorite question? (Yep, that one, too.)

So, I'm curious as to why you asked. And I hope you find my response helpful, or interesting at least.

Anything that asks for advice - all kinds because I like feeling like maybe I helped someone through something, figure something out or in some way - big or small, get them through the day,make a decision easier or help them feel better about themselves - if even for a moment, it feels good to know that I could do that for someone just by answering their question~

And I like all of the questions because it seems like everyone, for the most part, lets go of the facade that so many people think they have to have in the world and is just themselves - asking some questions that they would be too embarrassed to ask - most guys are open and honest and so are the women and I find that refreshing - that people are here just helping other people because it is a nice thing to do - not for any other reasons.
