Things that make you go 'DUHHHH'?

Why is it that so many people strive their hardest to come up with the stupidest question? Is there a competition I do not know about? Each time I see a spate of them, I wonder if it is the finals, but then a few days later, I see it all over again. Especially the ones that either want to know how to get a lot of money in a short time without working, or those that want to be given passwords/accounts/games for free. Does anyone besides me think Y!A needs to have a kids section?

    It is never going to stop. This is the Internet and they are granted by their First Amendment Rights™ to say whatever they want.

    I would love for these sorts to have a kids section.

    What annoys me the most are the ones who ask for the definition of a word when all they would need to do is look in a dictionary! I also do not like when they ask a question that the simplest google search would answer.

    Those annoy me.

    I agree that we need a child section, a teen section and an adult section, but how in heck are you gonna determine who is who. Who is telling the truth and who is lying just to get into the adult section. And just as a heads up...lots of people ask stupid questions just to see if they can get a "rise" out of others. It's intentional. But....go with the flow. Cheers.

    Like the constant (at least during the day, during the school week) - 'give me proxies please...I MUST get on myspace from school'? Definitely they need a kids section.

    I think Y!A needs to have people pass some kind of test to get on here

    "Am I pregnant?" and "How can I make my penis bigger?" are two questions that drive me NUTZ!
