Here's a list of lame answers (esp when in response to a strong or opinionated question):
1. "Yes/No"
One-word answers - what's the point? Elaborate!
2. "That's just your opinion"
No s hit Sherlock, who else's would it be?
3. "I agree/I don't agree"
again, ELABORATE on this!
4. "You're just jealous"
of course, that's the only option. Weak argument.
5. The type of answer that this question may get responded to. i.e. "worst typical Yahoo questions: yours!" Mu-hahaha!
Any others?

Well done Michael H! You come under category 5! For someone so interested in grammar, I find it amusing that you use the term "uncomprehensible" rather than "incomprehensible". I would not usually point this out, but some people just need informing...

i hate that. when i ask a question, i want a thoughtful, considerate, nice answer that actually helps me out.
i hate when people say "That's so dumb" or "thanks for the two points" lol

I think that some people do this just to get their points tally up, and do not really have a clue to that question or any sensible answer to put to the question. That is the way of the world these days unfortunately.

I got an answer once with simply just the letter 'd' in lower case... what's that about!? ...So yeah: know exactly what you mean here... if you're going to take the time to answer someones question you may as well explain you 'shorthand' (if you can call it that) while you're there...

I have come across probably the shortest and most bizarre answer
A dot (.), yes a dot
I think someone may like the question and does not want to lose it. Fair enough, but why don't they add it to the watch list

yes/no is a perfectly valid answer if people ask a closed question. if you want someone to elaborate, just ask in the comments, or maybe learn how to ask an open question.
If you ask "do you like egg ?". Its a perfectly valid answer to say "yes", or "no". Whats your problem with that, I wonder if your frustration shoud really be directed at your inability to ask questions correctly.
How about listing the worst questions ?
You could start with something thats uncomprehensible without making a few assumptions,gramatically incorrect, and not actually a question.
Something like: "Worst typical Yahoo answers?"
And this is in the internet section, i'm guessing you only normally converse with computer people.

The ones that go "I don't know, but thanks for the 2 points" or even just "2 points". They REALLY irritate me. Grrr!
Or the ones that take it seriously, when it's obviously a joke (see Rachel Fletcher's Q's)

When they insult your qustion (by saying it's stupid).
When they critize a person's spelling or grammar (unless the question is totally baffling, who cares?)

i hate:
1) what
2) jvfhf (some people leave utter jibberish, just to get points).
3) stop asking stupid questions (i like the silly ones, more interesting).
