Due to the overwhelming demand, I've been forced to add more outrageous questions in this follow-up article. And, if you've never heard of Yahoo Answers, here's a quote off their FAQ page: "It's the place to ask questions and get real answers from real people. It's fun and educational because you can ask questions on any topic from the serious to the not so serious. And when you know an answer, you can help others by giving answers to their questions. It's all about sharing - what you know and what you want to know."

So now you have a general idea of what it's all about. There are kids asking homework questions, people seeking cheap advise about medical and legal issues and those with obviously way too much free time on their hands. But it's an interesting microcosm of our culture and says a lot about our society. So, as a public service and a way to kill a few minutes, I've compiled a list of some actual questions posted on the site; without any alterations of spelling, grammar, etc. I simply copy, cut, and pasted, while selecting a few from each category. So enjoy a look at what your fellow humans are asking:
