There is no requirement on Answermug that you respond to the question asked with a relevant/pertinent/coherent reply. Do you anyway? WHY?

    Oh that's rich.  How could there BE a requirement?  Who on here can determine what is valid and real and what is not?  There would be arguments regarding that one that would go on forever.

    I ask "what do you worry about most?" You answer "Liberals suck and Trump is the best president there ever was". There is no requirement that such response be logical or sensible or reasonable or responsive to the question I ask. However as the Asker I find it to be worthless, useless and meaningless in that context.  I ask questions because I'm interested in the answers. I am not interested in partisan political rants or diatribes or insults or attacks. I call people on it or I just ignore them. Bad Rosie! Bah Humbug! Clever/smarta** isn't my cuppa tea. Thank you for your reply Sharon! :) This post was edited by RosieG at December 23, 2017 3:10 AM MST

    I respond to a question depending on how it strikes me when I read it. If it's a serious question, I try to give a serious answer. If it's a fun, just for laughs question, I try to answer with a bit of humor.

  • I do my best to do just that.
    I hope, from what you have experienced of me, that you agree.

    Indeed you do. Here's why I asked the question. When someone responds with an off-the-wall irrelevant reply I always call them on it. One respondent informed me that there is no requirement that his answers be relevant. Which is true. However as the Asker I value those who DO answer the question I ask. If they want to go off on a riff later that's fine too. But FIRST answer the dam* question! I'm NEVER impressed by those who try to impress with clever or smarta**!  Thank you for your reply Hartfire! :) This post was edited by RosieG at December 23, 2017 3:05 AM MST

    Since I am either one of or the only responded who informed you that "there is no requirement that his answers be relevant,"  I will answer this one also.

    Sometimes you come off as arrogant with your comments to those who post "responses" to your questions.

    Some times your arrogance is that of excellence---and I defer.

    Some times your arrogance is insufferable---and I respond in kind.

    But I have absolutely no problem with you---or your responses.99% of the time.

    And unless it was your idea, I was incensed that you wound up with your own "corner"----I thought separate but equal was settled by SCOTUS in Brown v Board of Education when it overturned Plessy v. Ferguson.
