This was actually completely made up, but happens a lot. with many different questions. And people.


Lately, I'm not sure if I'm noticing more, or I just haven't paid as much attention before.

People are so keen on asking the question and completely disregard what the other person replies with. It is especially amusing when watching it happen between others.


I don't usually (can't say ever, but) ask people questions if I don't wanna know the answer. I just don't ask at all.
