Is it just me or do others thing some of the questions are stupid?

Yeah, kind of.  Some people are asking the same questions over and over again.  All they have to do is go to the resolved questions portion & look up a similar question that's like there's before they ask it.

I know this is for fun, however I asked a serious question and some of the answers were rude or generally way off the point. I think some people enjoy putting others down sadly. When I answer a question I make sure I know some facts that are relevent to the question, otherwise, why bother lol

I thought I was the only one who thought the question was stupid!!!\n\nHonestly would have thought that they would have picked something more exciting or funny!!

There is stupid and then there is real stupid.  No offense, but your question, itself, could be called stupid by some people (not me of course).  If you ran a search with "Stupid question" you would find your question has been posted dozens and dozens of times.\n\nI really feel that if you think a question is that stupid or you don't think you can come up with a good answer then you should not bother answering it.\n\nI'll ask a question that I know could be considered stupid, and one that I could research myself.  But let's say, for instance, I'm really busy at work.  Then at least when I get home I'll have the answer to my question.  Hopefully, not one, that says, "Search for it on Google," to me that's just a dumb answer.  \nAnyways...have fun on Yahoo Answers.  :)

I think people answer what might be considered dumb questions for the points but also to regenerate a smart azz answer.  Some of these people only answer the dumb/less interesting questions because they have no better retort than what they write (which is usually half a sentence and generally misspelled).  As long as they get the points, they don't really care, I imagine.

Sometimes you ask a question just to see what others think.\nThen you read it and think, YUP it is a STUPID question. LOL...

Your question is actually a good one, one that brings attention to the moronic, idiotic tone and content they generally seem to address. \n\nThe reason for this in my opinion is that these questions are not written as genuine attempts to attain information but presented as a prank, a practical joke, like graffiti  as if they're being serious, but instead choosing the most bizarre, ridiculous topics purposely written in the goofiest most unintelligible manner possible for the fun and thrill of getting everyone. annoyed and riled up. \n\nIt's like an internet crank call. If a question appears too goofy, moronic. and stupid to be genuine then it's probably really just a goof.

Because your questions are, for the most part, either stupid or gross.

sometimes i wish that we could fix it, but then i read a really funny BS question or answer and i change my mind.  i suppose that the nature of this site is to be able to ask (almost) anything, regardless of how stupid.  on the other hand, when someone asks a really stupid question, isn't it fun to give a really BS answer back?  tis the nature of the beast, i suppose.

Good questions require thought and knowledge.  Some people are looking for an easy two points and thusly will answer the "stupidest" questions.

I think its gimmicky, and don't really bother with it.\nI like the "real" questions a lot better.\nPrizes are lame, and questions so far are just boring.

I agree with you. I think people do it to accumulate points rather than present a worthwhile and thought out answer. I asked some serious questions and received some smart aleck answers myself. Some of them displayed quite a sense of humor, though! It's what we make it, just like anything in life...

Well I usually avoid trying to answer the questions that don't make sense when I read them...The questions that annoy ME are the ones that are like....Do you S**k D**k? and have you done this sex act and should I do that sex act...BORING!!!!! TRITE!!!!! A WASTE OF SPACE!!!!

There are apparently people that just love to show off their ability to be stupid on here...there are too many stupid qustions to keep track of the dumbest one,lol.

Some people say there is no such thing as a stupid question, so, if you believe that, then stupid questions do not exist, and there is therefore no such thing as people who ask or answer stupid questions.  I personally think that people who answer with the phrase "this is a stupid question" would be pretty low on the list of intelligence, since there is not any real point to posting a non-answer to a question.  If someone thinks a question is stupid, they should most likely just avoid it.  I personally like to believe that there is no such thing as a stupid question, just poorly thought out questions, asked by stupid people.  \n\n"Arguing on the internet is like running a race in the special olympics, even if you win, you're still retarded" -Sour Bob on his site, quite some time ago.

Some people just wan tthe 2pts and others scale their answers to match the stupidity of the questions (and there really are stupid questions).\n\nI try to answer questions with accurate, complete and hopefully helpful answers if they are in my fields of study. \n\nBut sometimes I am in there with the 'matching stupidity' approach.

Maybe because it takes a STUPID, SILLY, MEANINGLESS mind to ask STUPID, SILLY, MEANINGLESS QUESTIONS
