Why did my wordplay question get removed?

"What cheese would you choose to ease across your knees?"

Can anyone really see anything offensive here? I challenge anyone that says that it doesn't qualify for the words & wordplay topic....to a duel.

    "What would you choose to..." could be regarded as opinion seeking if you had posted it anywhere else - as such it would have been a violation for chatting. In your particular case you were however not asking about what color a shirt should be you intended to wear, or what to eat for dinner - as you already pointed out, it was a wordplay and was perfectly legit. So the question is this: did it maybe not get any answers during the answering period of 4 days? If so, it would have gotten deleted automatically. Or did you get a violation notice in your mail box? If so, appeal the violation and let the Yahoo staff know the difference between a wordplay and a chat...Good luck!

    Inane and thus a violation for chat. Rule is a question must seek knowledge or advice beneficial to all.

    It's chat. The guidelines are the same in all categories.
