   I swear sometimes when I look at requests or hubs I think I've had a stroke and have lost my ability to read English because I can't understand what it says.
   
   This is a prime example:

   Please tell me it's not just me...

               You may have nada to do with the request, but you're right that you do your best in everything .. and that includes fishing out funky requests! 
               
               I'm thinking, should we go and answer the request with a fabulously substandard hub?

                  Or you can hub about "hi" in different languages? And use each in a sentence. That should not be flagged for lack of content, on the other hand, it could be some kind of a reference. as in:    "HIIIII: A Multilingual Dictionary of the Most Sociable Word Eva Eva!"

      Yup.  I get a lot of emails in a similar vein.  I'm not sure how people mistake HubPages for other websites, but it happens pretty frequently (ie, a dozen times a day, at least--and that's just the people who bother to email about it).

    Now there's an idea!  Plus, Crissy Cris, i keep getting the question about me and English.... I could turn that into a hub!  Gotta think about it!
    
    Though, by experience, every time I say I'll think about a hub idea, the hub never materializes! Seems like thinking about them ideas is enjoyable but getting the work done... not so much!
