There are also those posters who ask a question but don't like the (honest) answers because they are not what the OP wants to hear.
"I want my baby to get a dependent visa but the Immigration people say no."
"How old is your baby?"
"23"
"He's too old."
"But he's my baby. Someone tell who I can bribe to get my baby a visa."
The above post is fictitious, any resemblance to any poster is purely coincidental.
While I think the OP has a very valid point, if nobody asked dumb or easy to answer questions there would not be so many threads on here and it would be no fun coming on! But I agree, I have often answered somebody's question on a subject about which I know nothing by googling the answer in about 5 seconds!
Ah, I assumed it was just me. Oh well, I'll continue with my usual approach of sarcasm for the silliest of questions then.
Though I agree (again) with the points made about interesting conversation. There have been a number of posts that started off as quite mundane before becoming much more interesting for completely tangental reasons. This happens on Geoexpat more often than any other board that I'm familiar with... I suspect there are too many bored people in offices using the forum as a displacement activity
Ah... You've got me.
Count me in - along with the other sometime-bored, procrastinating hordes (not "hoards", as me booped on a previous thread).
Tangents R Us*
How else is one to get thru dayz like these...
