What are some of the questions that just seem to crop up on here and other forums over and over, and no matter how many times you insist that they run a search, it is always asked again?

Before Leopard came out, it was "When is Leopard coming out/ How much will it cost?"

No matter how easy it was to get the info, it would always crop back up. What are some of these questions that you've seen around?

That was almost too predictable.

One question that seems to be asked quite a lot around here is, “Why was I banned?”, though I’m not sure searching would help much with that one.

All this time I thought those questions were merely the rhetorical voicings of deranged members.

imitchellg5 · Nov 28, 2007, 07:11 PM

No, you probably could have left it unsaid and the world would have continued on. But I'll admit, I walked into it.
Stop it. You're making me a bad person.

brassplayersrock² · Nov 28, 2007, 07:12 PM

What I really hate is, "Question..." or "Is this possible?" as topic titles.

That's what she said.

To me: How tall are you? Can you use chop sticks? Can you eat Japanese food?

Only annoying when asked by people who I've worked with for more than two years, and who see me using chop sticks and eating Japanese food every day.

My gf is Japanese; the question that gets asked too frequently by my beloved idiot family is "So, what's it like in China?"

I thought you were going to say "So is your vagina really horizontal?" there for a moment.

Classic.

a few more along the same vein:

No, she doesn't wear glasses.
No, she doesn't have buck teeth.
No, she's not flat chested, in fact, she has wonderful C cup boobies.

Kevin · Nov 29, 2007, 12:06 PM

I was hoping no one would get offended by that. That is one of the weirdest racial rumor I've heard when I was a young lad. Just imagining it cracks me up.

I tease a gal I work with that is asian about it. But I act serious and with earnest. She keeps telling me that if i don't stop she will prove me wrong one of these days...

Ah, to be single again.. (Not that I would trade the relationship I am in now for anything in the world)
