... (racist questions, prejudices, etc) to the point that you find yourself stooping down to the level of the ignorant person, such as the one who just asked a question and answer in a way that normally you wouldn't.
I've done that a few times, but lately I try to ignore those questions. I actually just typed up an answer to something extremely offensive and stupid, and (to my credit!) deleted it before posting.

Yes some of the questions are rather ignorant, and I have stooped to that level, but at the same time, I kinda just have to laught at some of them. They are obviously not real questions and they just want to see if they will get a response.

Yes I try to do the same when I see questions like that, but sometimes I just cant help it!!! I end up answering the question and bursting in insults, I think I need anger management :)

Yes, someone just asked a question about taking their neighbor to the hospital to see her sick husband who died before they could get there, and how much did we think she should charge her for gasoline. I know it was a joke, but it was in really poor taste. She did delete the question, however.

If it is really bad, racist for example, I will report it, but I never comment - unless I can do it while actually answering the question.

I don't like questions that make fun of a persons religious preference, I don't answer them at all.
