So, I’ve become quite addicted to Yahoo! Answers. It’s a Beta service that Yahoo put out where people ask the stupidest questions and you get points for answering them. It’s 2 Pts per question answered. If someone picks your answer as the best, you get 10 pts. If someone votes your answer as a good one, you get 1 pt. If you ask a question, it costs you 5 pts.
Seriously, you can sit on there for hours just answering stupid questions, pointing out the stupidity of others. Sometimes, I’ll actually give people a good answer but most of the time I’m just there to point out how people can’t spell, or there questions are lame or just, in general, try to be funny. I especially like the questions dealing with religion, life on other planets or philosophy. I like trying to be the first to answer the questions but other times, I just need to jump in after I’ve read everyone’s lame-ass answers. Then I’ll come in and ridicule the person asking the question as well as the other people who’ve answered. It makes me feel like a real man.
So, checking the stats of other people, there are actually people on there that have point totals in excess of 25,000 pts. I have almost 900. I’ve been on it for two weeks. I wonder how often these people are on there to have amassed over 25k pts?? And I thought I was a loser.
You should definitely check it out – http://answers.yahoo.com. You’ll need an account over at Yahoo, but don’t let that stop you.
