Is there such thing as a stupid question?
I say yes! This question is a stupid question for starters!
Of course. When there is a conversation where someone is supposed to be listening, then they ask a question about something when it was already said. I hate those questions. It was just stated! Why weren't you listening as you were supposed to?!
Private swim instructor. I get these questions all the time.
No, I wouldn't think so. If someone asks a question it shows curiosity and a want to understand more.
Asking questions-no matter how irrelevant or ridiculous- has no downfall.
For you, writing this question is getting your hubs noticed, you're also on your way, if you don't have one already, to achieving an accolade for posing questions.
How stupid does your question appear now??
How has writing this question got Peter's Hubs noticed? It hasn't caused me rush to view them or his profile page, and I doubt that it has caused anyone else to do so.
stupid is as stupid does I suppose! thanks for participating!
It gets him noticed! I've posed questions and gotten great followers from it. I also usually check other Hubbers profiles from the Q&A and forum section if i find them interesting. Just because you don't do it, doesn't mean other Hubbers don't
Yes, just look at some of the absurdities that appear in this section.
That fact is actually what inspired this question!
Duh. lol JK If there can be stupid answers, there can be stupid questions.
I think a stupid question is one that's made about something obvious. Like if I'm sitting in a room writing and there is a huge sign outside the door, which I have closed that states, "DO NOT DISTURB", and you open that door, walk in and ask, "Are you busy?" That would be a stupid question.

Do you believe "there's no such thing as a stupid question"?The full text of the quote, by an unknown person, is "There's no such thing as a stupid question, only stupid people who ask questions." What do you think about this quote?

Why is it that people insist on taking over someone else's question, or hub, for their own soapbox?Lately I've noticed several questions, and even the occasional hub, where several people answer the question, and one person (not the author either) take over and tell people they are wrong and why,...
