do you read the questions here?

I am BORED - not BOARD - so I answer questions while at work, but when I get home I am usually too busy. I'll answer ANY question, but I'll honestly answer the ones that I feel that I can contribute to. Sometimes (if I think that it's a particularly inane question), I'll give a "joke" answer, but usually I'll give honest answers.

You're right, a lot of people do not even really read the questions. I do, because, while usually they clarify the question, sometimes the asker's ADDITIONAL DETAILS contradict what the original question was, so I answer BOTH questions.

And sometimes, the WAY a person asks his question is so ludicrous that I will assume that he meant to ask something else, but STILL answer both questions - the one he has written and the one that I assume that he meant to ask.

Some people call everyone who doesn't agree with them A**h***s, and while I may slam answers, I will never slam the PERSON who gave those answers.

Hope this answers your question.

It depends on my mood and the question. Sometimes I respond in a short and funny way and other days I go into great detail and I am very serious. Some times when I see a real goofy question I give a real goofy answer. Sometimes I like to make sure they have the best answer that I can give and other times I am sure that I am messing with their minds and they will be even more confused then before they asked the question.

Good question, and yes I do read them, unless they turn to nonsense and become too difficult to read. I am on answers out of boredom, usually sit with my morning coffee and that is it. So yes, I read, then answer. I actually try to offer knowledge and insight of questions I answer. I do not care about points in the least. For example, I am and have been a Nurse Recruiter for way over 10 years so I answer questions pertaining to the Nursing Business that I am familiar with. Or dogs since I have one of those too for more than 15 years.

Why do you answer and ask on Yahoo?

Have a good one! I relate to your question. Some answer with complete nonsense. A lot of kids too I think.

I find some people miss the point of my questions. So I get abusive answers or people think my question was OTT.

As a trained teacher I can't understand why people don't READ THE QUESTION!

Yes I do, however yesterday (it was late and I was tired) I totally missed the point and answer it in such a dumb way! ops sorry for that

I like giving something for people to ponder. So yes, I do read the Q's and try to give a valid response.

i like answering questions cause i am board and i am level one and i want to get to level 2 it does not make me feel anything except for my current feeling but if i get a best answer it makes me feel good

Well i do it cause i need more points

to go to level two, and motly its because im bored and like answering things!!!!!!!!!

i do read the questions here....but mostly i ask coz i need to finish up my hwork:)

yep, some just do it for the points.
