THE most annoying way to ask a question

**GrooveDachshund** · 03-05-2011, 07:04 AM

Format:(Complaint). Why?

Example: My face hurts when I shave. Why?

I hate it when people talk like this, and I hear it so often. Complaining is not asking a question. "Why?" is the most annoying way to ask any question, as proven by billions of middle school essay questions (What day was Rome built? Why?)

A more proper way to ask a question: (Short Explanation). (Specified question using more than one word, with polite wording.)

Example: When I shave, I get these red bumps that hurt like crazy. Do you know how I can prevent this from happening in the future?

So please, format your question like a gentleman, not an annoying twit, everywhere you go. This isn't something I've seen a lot on the forum, but every time I hear what I have dubbed 'The Twit's Why' it makes a little part of the rational part of by brain die. You know, that part that prevents you from doing things like this

I prefer to ask "Why does my face hurt when I shave?"

Sometimes there are posts on B&B that don't seem to have any real useful purpose other than to b!tch for b!thcing's sake but the poster insist on posting anyway. Why?

You can always ignore them instead of b!tching for b!thcing's sake about them

Damnit, that's what I came in here to say. We are not short on smart asses here at least. I am in good company.

If your going to call in the grammar police, you might want to check your caps lock button before they get here.

**Mink** · 03-05-2011, 11:34 AM

You seem so angry, why?

Is most likely the answer. This essay would shed some light onto the reasons school essays are infuriating. This is another tragically related essay by the same author.

Except that was obviously done on purpose...

So your saying its only ok to break the rules only when it suites your mood? All caps suggest an "annoying twit" screaming at the top of his lungs for attention.

Sorry, the titles don't have a way to italicize, bold, or underline, and there's no other way to denote inflection in writing. I didn't write the entire thing in all caps, sorry if you found it offensive. You don't have to read it if you don't like it.

I'd have to disagree, the most annoying way to ask a question is to get an answer and repeatedly ask the same question over and over

**pz93c** · 03-05-2011, 01:09 PM

Why wouldn't it hurt? It hurts me to look at it.

**commanderkeen** · 03-05-2011, 01:11 PM

I beg to differ, the MOST ANNOYING way would be to form the sentence backwards.

Format: ?yhW .(tnialpmoC)

Example: ?yhW .evahs nehw struh ecaf yM

See, much more annoying

Hmm, I have to agree. Perhaps I should have titled it 'The most annoying way to initially ask a question."?

or perhaps "'The most annoying way to initially ask a question, sans regard for direction."?
