Do these kind of questions annoy you?

Question

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=20080808181947AAGAu2h

notice the amount of bullshit this guy is using in his question!

and judging from the answers,everyone is annoyed with him so dont say im the only one in here who feels that way

only the americans can come up with such stupid questions!

im not saying all the americans are stupid,but some of them have gone a little too far with their questions and answers

they just come in this section with the aim of praising their country (usa) and blaming us for liking football.

i mean,would they like it if we banned baseball or american football?

cause those are the crappiest and most boring sports ive ever seen.

football rules!

Answer 1

No, what does annoy me are the people that can't detect humour, irony or sarcasm in these kinds of questions and instead take them completely at face value. Most if not all of these questions are just pisstaking or wind-ups.

Answer 2

As soon as I see somebody use the word "soccer" I instantly ignore the post.

Answer 3

No..............just move on from them.

Answer 4

I saw that question for myself.

It was obvious what he was doing, he was trying to get a reaction from people, and by the looks of the others answers, he got what he wanted.

He IS giving American's a bad name, but most of us do realise that one persons opinion is not everyones same opinions, and should ignore people like that in future.

Answer 5

This user has posted this same question for times

Just ignore him

Answer 6

It does. But clearly, the guy wants attention. So don't give it to him.

Answer 7

I'm my opinion, that was more stupid and laugh inducing than annoying mainly cus he said should USA ban soccer all over the world...last time i checked, the US didn't rule the world...lots of more annoying questions like who will win the EPL...

Answer 8

"Only Americans come up with such stupid question"

Cmon, you know that is not true.

No I dont get annoyed buy questions like that. They are pretty funny, especially when people get all riled up. If you read real close you'd see that that person thinks Africa and Europe are countries.

Why would anyone take this persons opinion seriously?

Answer 9

i know they are trying to surpass the great football with american football i meant american handball

Answer 10

Ignorance is bliss  for some of the redneck backwoods  types .. If he would have looked at a few real sucker  games where there are over 100000 fans in the stands  he would see that 25000 for a baseball game seems like a pittance .but that's just me and I ignore the idiots ...

I really like that thumbs down option :-)

Answer 11

oi! oi!

You can't  generalize all "Americans" as asking stupid questions!

That is such an ignorant statement to make..

I know you dont mean "ALL" of em..

But some of us "good " users who ARE american might take this offensive as well..

As for the Q:: questions like those are always "looking" for attention.. and aiming for the negative feedback; It is best to just ignore.

You're a good gal; but it seems like u may have some resentment for us Americans.

Its best to not generalize, yes?

Answer 12

i agree.its very annoying

they should stop doing it

Answer 13

I would have respected his opinion more if he hadn't called Europe a poor country and included baseball and the President in his question.  I'll tell you one thing. Some of the answers annoyed me almost just as much. I am an American citizen and if some English f*g called me a yank to my face I would bust his nose in.  People from the UK get bothered when Americans bash football but then it's ok to bash on American sports? Hypocrites.

Answer 14

there's lots of weird people on Y!A.

those questions don't bug me, what bugs me more is when people have horrible spelling or grammar in their questions

Answer 15

Nah that guy seems like he is just trying to give Americans a bad name. I don't think that he is really American at all.

Anyway who cares? There are probably so many of those guys who actually exist. Blissfully ignorant. Americans are really dumb and deluded.
