doesn't matter, newer players will always ask the questions that others have asked before them.
some people just don't use the search function....
methinks that there should be a sticky explaining what "RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO" means...there's been about 5 threads within the week about this.....

mm. pessimism at its best, right there.
dumb questions are subjective. what you say is a dumb question probably isn't to the next guy.

1. Sarcastic questions aren't stupid, they're funny and provacative.
2. That person's watch may or may not work, or they may have forgotten they had their watch. I know you've forgotten certain things like that before, we all have.
3. It's not stupid to ask if you can ask a question, it's typical and relatively polite.
4. Who cares if they're right there? You still want to know who the hell it is!
5. Again, not stupid - a little rude, sure, but not stupid.
You seem to think that asking a question you already know the answer to is stupid, this is entirely incorrect. There are several situations in which you might know the answer to something, but would like to know what someone else knows. There have been many times in life where I'd hear someone talking about someone behind their back, and then I'd go up to them later and ask them what they thought of the person (even though I knew what the real answer was). How they responded would tell me whether or not that person was a jackass who would lie to other people, or whether or not they'd be willing to tell me the truth. Asking a question to find out some things about someone else isn't stupid at all.
And I have to say it just for the hell of it, you can't say some things are impossible just because with your current knowledge and mindset you've found them to be. Anything could be possible, it might just be outside our mental capabilities to imagine and comprehend how.

Nothing wrong with asking questions...
What is annoying about people asking questions is they are to lazy to make a few extra clicks to find an answer for themselves.
I for one use Google for all sorts of things. Mainly it is great for typing a Model number of a product I am interested in and adding the word REVIEWS after it. Big help there.....allot of the times the reviews are mixed...but they will force me to realize information I didn't think of before.

Sadly there are large droves of people can only use google to search for things that couldn't possibly add to their lives.
