Get Answers Right Now. Ask a Questanswer.
64
All of us have questions, and it has recently come to my attention that the best way to get a satisfying answer is by asking the right person. If you do this, you can can get an immediate answer-- even before you get a response.
Let me explain. This kind of specifically targeted question is called a Questanswer-- because it starts as a question and ends with a person's name which is also an answer to the question.
The beauty of this form of questioning is that you don't have to wait for feedback.
The complication is that you must find just the right person-- with just the right name-- to ask.
You must pick a person with the name which answers the question.
I will give some examples below:
Questanswers
1. What did you use to catch those fish, Annette?
I really don't want to over-explain this (-- perhaps I already have), but you can see that saying the name of the person whom is being questioned, does actually answer the question.
2. How did you come back from the beach, Sandy?
3. What did you do before you painted that picture, Drew?
4. What's that green stuff on your pasta. Basil?
5. What time did you get up, Don? (or Dohn121)
6. What keeps your spirits up. Hope?
7. How is your ulcer feeling, Bernie?
8. What landed you in jail, Robin?
9. What percentage of her body was tattooed, Oliver?
10. That's the third time he's told that joke. What is he trying to do, Boris?
11. What did the severely dehydrated man finally do, Pierre?
12. What are all of those people doing at the wedding chapel, Marion?
Okay-- I have a few more, but these are the best of the worst. I have been listening to too much political commentary lately and decided I really needed a silly break.
I hope you will add to the list in comments below and write your own questanswers.

This silliness was inspired by nicomp's hub about popular names people give to their furniture.

Okay, so the last one's a bit of a stretch (squeeze) but you get the idea.
