Why do people ask so many dumb questions?

"The two most abundant elements in the universe are hydrogen and stupidity."

Maybe because some people just aren't very Google or Yahoo search savvy and can't think of the correct wording to produce the right search result. I know sometimes I have to try rewording the search 3-4 times before I get what I'm looking for.

I think boredom and lonliness inspire most of the questions on here. It's only a rare few that are rooted in a true desire to gain knowledge about something. Also figure that half the participants are children.

I have asked questions I could have searched, but sometimes it is nice to get a new slant, insider info, a humorous response, or just a stupid answer.

Because people, especially in this nation, are nothing more than idiots who piss out the front and **** out the back and hold on bleating to their pathetic, meaningless little lives...

Weedhopper,

You must ask this question after you replace "people" with "I". Only then will you learn the secret of your question.

dumb is in the mind of the thinker

They do it so that people like you will post as you have :P

Look inside yourself grasshopper.

You seem to be asking one right now.
