Yahoo Answers ROCKS

I don't know how I managed to miss it for all of these years, but Yahoo Answers may be the second most entertaining thing on the internet (after The Daily Agitator of course). For those of you who aren't familiar, Yahoo Answers is a forum for users to submit questions on a variety of topics and receive answers from its almost entirely uneducated user base.

Yes, this is as awesome as it sounds. I highly recommend wasting at least 30 minutes randomly searching for horrible answers to horrible questions.

Now many of you may doubt the heights of amusement that I am evangelizing here. That's understandable of course, and I suspected that you would. That's why I've prepared several examples below to prove my point. Enjoy:

Exhibit 1: Since when is being good...bad?


Translation: All of your friends have burning pee, but you don't. Are YOU weird?


Answer: Yeah, you might not want to take advice from your friends.

Exhibit 2: If you pose this question, chances are you have bigger problems.

Translation: Your parents ignore you, you crave attention, and you're creatively masochistic...

Answer: This one had several great answers ranging from two seconds to 13.3 minutes
(give or take 2.8 minutes for having long hair)


Exhibit 3: It took until you were 15?!?


Translation: I'm pubescent. WTF?


Answer a: Not sure this solves the problem, but it's sweet to offer.


Answer b: This answer has it all- a pun, statistical evidence, clarity on sexual orientation- we have a...weener? Oh snap!

Exhibit 4: If Satan can't fly, explain United Airlines.


Translation: Um, I don't really know what this person is actually asking.

Answer: This one doesn't have an answer yet. Maybe no one understands the question.

Those are just four of the amazing questions and answers I've found on Yahoo Answers, and it's only been an hour of searching. I laughed, I cried, I've achieved enlightenment. This site is great. Read it after you read this blog 5-6 times per day.
