Well, I've gotten some good, practical answers to a few of my questions...
I got a stupid decal off the windshield of my car, got some good advice about my kitten, got many great answers to a question about car trouble (which I used, to NOT get screwed over by a car dealership mechanic who tried to talk down to me...LOL!)...
Aside from that, it does have a certain amount of "laugh value"...

I answered a question the other day and the person said it was encouraging to them, which was encouraging to me. The site can serve as a way to have a limited interaction with many different people that you otherwise would never meet. I think it is kinda fun, but it is really being taken over by people who don't respect others or are just sick .

Yes, it lets people ask a worldwide audience for help with questions they would otherwise have a hard time getting answered. I've never asked anything but like helping people with genuine queries, and having a laugh at some funny answers.
Unfortunately a lot of people use it to find information they could easily get themselves, to spew hate and provoke reactions, play silly games or as a chat room. There are other sites for that.

Up on top of the site's page, you see those three words written in green? "Ask", "Answer", "Discover"? That's the purpose. You answer questions to help others, you ask questions to be helped, and in the end, everyone learns something new.

Yes. We do get some bad questions, and ones that are suppose to be funny, or in bad taste, but over all there are alot of good questions that are answered by people that do have the knowledge to help others, and that's what its all about.

If you are a positive person, you will learn alot. Because you will
have an open mind. If you are a negative person, you won't really
learn anything, but be more negative. It's all in the eye of the be-
holder.

YES! I have learned many things I did not know before, I also get it off my chest so to speak when I get serious on a question.

I guess it is a good venue to let out your frustrations or disseminate your viewpoints to the Internet world. It can be educational as well.

This site allows anyone and everyone no matter what walk of life they are from to add their two cents to any topic. People may not have an outlet like this in any other facet of their life.
And thanks to my two cents, Yahoo has given me two points and this question has pushed me into level three. Thanks!

YES IT DOES BESIDES ANSWER QUESTIONS WE GET TO MEET PEOPLE AND SOMETIMES TALK TO THEM
ALSO YOU GET DIFFERENT ASPECT OF QUESTIONS THAT PEOPLE ASK SOME QUESTION ARE GOOD ONE AND SOME OTHER QUESTION ARE KIND OF STRANGE
ANOTHER REASON IS WORTHWHILE IS THAT DIFFERENT PEOPLE THINK DIFFERENT AND IT IS GOOD TO GET A DIFFERED ASPECT OF THE QUESTION YOU ARE ANSWERING PUT IT COULD HAVE DIFFERENT WAY THAT PROPEL THINK
