Doing so seems to get thumbs down a lot more often than I'd expect, no matter how obvious it is that the person asking is full of it.
I think there's a place for fun on here, but I also think there're a lot of serious questions getting serious answers, so am inclined to say "Look, don't waste your time and mine" on the BS ones. I am also thoroughly appreciative of the people who read posters' other questions a bit when something looks suspicious, and point out when we're having our legs pulled.
This one:

gave me a smile; it's sort of cute that a girl would fantasize about being a "proscuting" attorney married to a "frensic" scientist. (Perhaps somebody watches a lot of soap operas, I thought.)
But is it rude to call people out on lies here?

My answer will be... ok.....i'm very perplexed. Will someone please tell me why toddlers do no longer come already educated? - - canines are like toddlers in a way, yet toddlers don't have as many animal instincts, like mating, canines certainly comprehend the thanks to attempt this, yet toddlers ought to study the way it truly works... Say you purchase a operating laptop or computer clean, or memory has in simple terms been reset, you would ought to position in and procure all the belongings you pick, it has its classes on it already to run correct, yet as for messengers and video games and such, you should attempt this your self. A pup is almost a sort no computer, its cup is empty, in simple terms waiting for you to position in and procure regardless of you pick! (diverse canines are like diverse pcs, too! some will study/receive issues fairly, yet others favor some ameliorations to be in a position to do what you pick!) upload: Ah, i imagine I comprehend now :P I absolutely have heard of trolls hacking different peoples expenses so i assumed per chance that became the topic the following :P

Yes that would be rude
Unless you know these people personally. I wouldn't call anyone a liar. But even situations on soaps can bring up questions in real life. Or maybe they would like to see how others would handle the same question.
Also a person may be wondering something embarrassing like how tho get rid of their roaches and say they're asking for a friend. I that case I just answer the question with. "Tell your friend....."

I would think that a prosecuting attorney would have better spelling skills! If you look at some of her other questions, she does have a spelling issue - proscuting, frensic, pregnat, intimante...

Not at all. I did the same thing recently to a guy who claimed to have just gotten out of prison. A look at his profile showed he had been quite active. Thumbs-down mean nothing to me, they don't cost me points or get me suspended.

It might be true it might not...if you think it's a fake question then don't answer it and save your time...it's not like anyone is forcing you to...maybe they just want to see what kind of answers they will get to their question.. I'm not saying I'm on her side or anything cause I do agree that there are a lot of dumb questions on here..

Just leave a fun answer, unless the question is idiotic or mean spirited. Then leave an insulting answer.
DOnt worry about thumbs down. Popularity is volatile, and if you seek it you will never find it. Just be yourself.
