Why Why WHY?!?

Question

That's it...if i don't get this out of me i'm going to explode. And my apologies to all other users who this message does not apply to - just give me a pass on this one will you?

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY USELESS ANSWERS?

USELESS - as in "While your asking a legitimate question, let me just butt in and answer you with a sentance that has absolutely nothing to do with your question - go me!! Your stupid you ______(fill in the blank)"

[I exclude funny answers....but then again not many answers have enough Wit to be considered as such.]

You know a few weeks ago i was listening to the radio about poverty and debt relief - person calls in and starts talking about Jesus...and more Jesus...and more Jesus...

Couple days ago a US diplomat talking said "our thoughts and prayers go out to the Burmese monks" only to get a phone call from an Atheist about how its illogical to pray..

Both respondents of course, backed away from offering up comment/solution to the actual question

being asked. "Oh, its not my place to say." "Oh, i certinaly do not have a solution to what's going on in Burma - i didn't know you meant to say "Thoughts and Prayers" as a turn of Phrase."


WHAT THE @#$*&@#$@?

Frankly - regardless of the differences of both people's perspectives, their attitudes/demeanor are the same.

"I'm a Talking Head - here let me talk about the only way i know how to engage reality."

Is it so hard really, just to answer someone else's question without drifting off into an aside?

LOL - Another talking head....

Princess - everyones got a right to an opinion. (and no your not ticking me off..)

But come on people - man/woman walks into the forum with a legitimate question (not one of those confrontational ones - those folks are asking for a fight)..

If you have something of worth to say - fine. If not, your just wating breathe.

Answer 1

That's the problem nowadays. People seem to put too much emphasis on their religion (or lack of it) and forget what they were supposed to answer.

Another good example of this is this very category. When a person asks a question here, they'd have to specify who it goes to (e.g. Christians, Muslims, Jews, Atheists) otherwise their questions will get filled with erroneous and insulting answers.

Answer 2

Sigh. sigh, sigh

You are right. Bu it takes two for anything to happen like this. In both cases don't you feel it would be the moderator's case to make the call and tell the caller, you are off topic.

But then again we give consideration and we are only human.

You did bring up a legitimate complaint. I'm sure you may have felt a collective breath of relief going out here now.

Take care and have a good day. YA provided a nice way to vent. Don't you think?

Answer 3

Take a good long hard look at the "Talking Heads" on your own thread. One even has a couple thumbs up - most likely from a bunch of folks who like Trolling around.

Short answer: People like messing with other people (if they are trolling).

Long answer: People have an over inflated sense of what they know. Or believe that life can be reduced to one single variable

Both can be reduced to one thing - as you said Useless.

Thankfully, i'll wager agianst you that the majority of humanity isn't like that at all.

Answer 4

It's in the nature of things that when you have a bunch of strangers chiming in you are going to have to separate a lot of chaff from just a bit of wheat.

And a decent answer that's a bit off-topic is okay, too. After all, most of us are really just here to think a bit. And there's nothing wrong with widening the subject.

But don't think I'm unsympathetic; some of the garbage that pops up is pretty aggravating, isn't it?

Answer 5

It motives you gas while you evaluate that's severe in sulfur. some everyone seems to be getting Beans and Cabbage mixed up of their solutions. Beans (legumes) reason gas because of the fact they comprise a sugar, oligosaccharide. The human physique does not produce the enzyme that breaks down oligosaccharides. So the micro organism in our intestines are forced to interrupt it down, and their byproduct is stinky gas. Cabbage inspite of the shown fact that's diverse. Sulfur and methane is what motives gas to have smell. Methane if recent is produced clearly in some human beings. inspite of the shown fact that which will by no ability be effected with the help of cabbage. Sulfur on the different hand is. ingredients that are severe in sulfur, including garlic, onions, leeks, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and Brussels sprouts, would reason foul-smelling gas. subsequently the explanation why cabbage provides gas is while you evaluate that's severe in sulfer. Taking beano won't paintings, while you evaluate that's an enzime to help break down the sugar discovered interior the beans. till you will detect a thank you to leach the sulfer out of cabbage, i'm afraid that's going to continually reason you dealthly gas........... savour farting!

Answer 7

Why? Because it's fun to get a rise out of people. I try not to do it, but there are times that it's just fun. Evil, sadistic but fun. I am a Christian, I should know better. I do know better. But just like answering this question. I shouldn't. It has nothing to do with me. But it's fun to just drop in and putting my totally useless two cents.

Answer 8

I am sorry that people are ticking you off. If I do than I do not mean to. That is human nature because humans are inherently evil. Sorry about it, but I have been trying to fix myself, and for everyone else first I have to fix myself before I can fix anyone else!

Answer 9

Oh, boy do I understand. You should talk to some of the idiots on my job. Makes you want to strangle them. I dont know why people are like that. Good thing everybody isnt like that

Answer 10

is this useless enough?
