Does the amount of clueless people here scare anyone but me?

I know that everyone has to start somewhere to learn things.But are there really that many people running around that are that clueless about life?Some of the questions i read here(and the answers for that matter) make me think there's no hope for us as a species.

Update:

Pick any subject here and just start reading.My personal favorite is maintenance and repairs and motorcycles in the cars and transportation section.

    Andy-

    The answer is so simple that it will totally blow you away.

    In the days of creation God decided that he would have a fixed intelligence number. This number would be divided amongst the people on this planet, not necessarily equally, but it would be divided.

    So armed with this knowledge and the fact that we have a significantly larger population, its stands to reason this number is getting spread pretty thin.

    My solution?

    Let the stupid people die!

    They will be just smart enough to remove themselves from the planet's gene pool. And... those that are should be commended with the associated award. The Darwin Award!

    Its a big thank you from the smart people on the planet for giving us a few more numbers to our favor. But whats great, is the fact the stupid people willingly sacrificed their own numbers for the rest of us.

    Stupidity shoud be lethal, or at least painful!

    "We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctivness to our own. Your lives will adapt to serve us. Resistance is fudal."

    May be they have it right!

    Besides can't get any stupider than a Suicide Bomber. They only get one chance at getting it right!

    La La La La! Jihad! Boom!

    Nice one! Bet you can't do that again! Fool!

    Last I checked there was nothing about the 72 virgins having to be women! Hmm, I guess this would be another "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" rule?

    Doh!

    I often think it wouldn't be such a bad thing if they did bring the end of us all -including themselves.

    Our species is nothing special - we have had our chance. When we cause our own demise I hope theres enough left of the planet so a different species can have a go.

  • I've heard that the majority of people on Yahoo! answers are young high school kids, so the level of "cluelessness" isn't too surprising to me. Not that all high school kids are clueless (I know quite a few who are well informed and very bright)- they simply lack maturity.

    I think most of the ppls in here are bored, and some try to make jokes. I think most are young and will learn life's cruel way of making us stronger.

    i'm in school right now and forgot my P.E kit so here i am =/
