Do you guys ever cut and paste an answer?
I get tired of the same old questions over and over....and then over some more.
If you've already answered the question a few times, would it be alright to answer it by pasting what you've already wrote if you still agree with it?

Yes your own answers, not someone else's,

But common sense,
If you’ve thought about it enough to still totally agree with the answer. then that doesn’t mean you don’t like to think. It means you’ve thought so much about this answer that there’s nothing you would chance about it.
Remember there are always two sides of the coin.

Yes, I do it all the time. There are many questions that are asked again and again so it would be a waste of time typing the same answer again.

I actually made a yahoo group just to store responses to repeated questions.
i have generic responses to
Pascal's wager.
anything about an Oujia Board.
and Evolution.
however i find that many people ask something in addition to the generic. so i usually end up typing out a new answer. but hell with the 5 billion times that people ask about Pascal's wager on here. yahoo should just send them an automated response. (kind of hos they do for the violation notices that you try to dispute)

I will cut and paste an answer to the same question, usually saying, "Just as I said before:" and provide a link to the previous question.

Yes I 'Do you guys ever cut and paste an answer.'
And yes, it 'would it be alright to answer it by pasting what you've already wrote if you still agree with it.'

Of course it is ok.. You really can use your own stuff as many times as you want to. IF the answer still holds true..

Cut and paste? Nope.
Is there a common theme to many of, in MY particular case, the answers provided. Yes, certainly. Otherwise, wouldn't I be illogical or irrational or just plain random?
Cut and paste is for the lazy people who don't like to think.
