I've seen a few exceptionally ridiculous questions asked over and over and over,... well you know, by different people.

What don't folks look at the bottom of "1.Enter your question" where it says ** We have found similar questions ** before posting their question?

There are some folks who are more than a little tweaked-off that some of us are exploiting dumb questions just to get easy points.

Uh - HELLO?
There is a lot of competition to get that best answer. There are a lot of good responses to some of those "Dumb questions".

Sometimes I can't help myself, when I see one that I can just let go and try to see if I can be clever. Not to be a smart-@$$,....
But there will always be a question that some fooo'l will post. To see what kind of Answers they will get.

So,... whats your excuse?

There are no stupid questions. The only time a question bugs me is when it is asked in a presumptive way. I read a lot of questions and answer the ones that interest me. I want the seconds back that it takes me to read through a question that is clearly already decided by the person who asked it.

Questions like,"DO you lick my peom?" Ugh...you can't even spell poem correctly (certainly not likely to "lick" it in any case)...what do you think I am going to think? If you have to ask then it is a waste of time to begin with. Any constructive answer I could give would be ignored over the one answer that gave the praise the questioner was looking for. Or,"How many of you are true Christians?" How is getting an accurate answer to that question even possible.

Then there are the "I need your advice..." or "Please answer my question." questions which I completely ignore. If you can't figure out how to use this tool then you have bigger problems then whether you should keep or throw away that ashtray your mother smoked into till she died of lung cancer.

The worst are the questions that are simple statements of opinion in the guise of a question. "Why are atheists so mean to every Christian (or vice/versa)." They assume to tell me that every single atheist is mean to all Christians. It is ridiculous and undeserving of an answer.

I can't resist answering dumb questions (no matter how many times I get to recycle my answer). They are easy. Answering to people who have an agenda in the phrasing of their question is very easy to resist.

One time I answered a stupid question exceptionally rude. Do you know that person emailed me back and was really angry with my answer? From that point on I decided to ignore the questions that I thought were there just to tick people off or just plain stupid.

A lot of times, I don't answer, but sometimes I do. Hey, it's 2 points.

How about "answer a fool according to his folly"
