No, this isn't an attempt to be impressed by a bunch of you. It's just a question; no need to be defensive... I've just noticed that the majority of the people polluting Yahoo! Answers are completely generic and vapid idiots full of trite, cliched sentiments.

Agree?

Oh dear god. "Did someone get a dictionary for Christmas?" "I don't know what vapid means."

Thank you for answering my questions... **Dramatic eyeroll**

No I don't agree. Maybe I'm one of those 'generic' people you're refering to (what exactly do you mean, anyway??) but I've actually been genuinely impressed by the genuine answers I read. You don't have to give a witty response, just a plain honest opinion based upon your own life experience. That's why you come to this site. If you want something 'original' do a search on google or wikepedia or something

come on... there not ALL generic questions or answers... it's just human nature here at it's best..young people getting advice on the big new world of relationships....complete dorks trying to get others to do their homework for them,(you know who you are losers!..), and just fun and entertaining people making a work day in their cubies pass faster..

Yeah, about 90 percent generic, 5 percent sincere, with another 5 percent self righteous morons like yourself that think they are better than everyone else.

I have noticed that when you ask real questions you often get some good answers. If you ask bull like this what are you really expecting?

You are funny, There are a lot of people from diverse ages and lifestyles and education. That feels that their input is important in a virtual world,where that might not be the case in the real world,Who knows.Everyone ,even you are interesting.

There are some like that. But really, who are you to judge? They have a right to live their painfully generic lives just as you have a right to live your arrogant self-righteous life. Catch my drift? Anyone can call others names and demean their lifestyle, theres just no point.

Just ignore the answers you dont like. Who cares? Why let it affect you?

did someone get a dictionary for Christmas?

and no i don't agree-people generally state what they see or feel. and if it seems that you are hearing the same comments from a lot of people, then just assume that it is a feeling or sentiment that resonates with many people.
