Why do you answer questions on here?

I'm just curious, I do it purely out of boredom, I'm generally waiting to see whats happening elsewhere and do this to kill time

    Why do I answer questions on here? I am asking myself the same question after reading the last one I perused and then passed up. It was strange. I like people and I think I do have a grip on reality, though it may be different for each one through their own perception. I am here to find other people and share the time I love to spend on my PC doing something that doesn't cost any money. There, I think that's it. Thanks. And good luck too.

    I do it as an exercises for my brain, like jogging helps your cardio vascular system, answering a huge variety of questions makes the brain work better. I have noticed that it affects the way I think because I think clearer and faster giving me the ability to concisely answer a barrage of weird questions in a job interview and it definitely has boosted my confidence in dealing with those situations.

    Spare time, boredom, curious, and to laugh. Some of these questions just crack me up.

    because i feel that people on here need help.....(thats why they post questions).....I wanna help them with problems they have. I know some people are oblivious to some solutions that are very helpful. they miss these solutions because they are panicking and dont know what to do and they miss it. Thats what im here for!
