Will you get mad if you are asked some stupid questions by someone?Will you try be friendly as you can?Or you just ignore them?
These days when I am online,so many stupid questions are asked by my online friends.It seems to me they just don't have common sense. I just try my best to be friendly with them and answer those question.But not everytime,some times I just ignore them,or tell them I am buzy.
When I want to post a discussion,those stupid questions kept interrupting me.So I deleted some of online friends from my friend list,keep their mouth shut forever.Yes,I don't have much time and patience for that.
What about you ?Are you patient and good tempered enough to answer those questions?

I do not get asked many questions online, but I do get asked questions in my life! I do not like to talk much, and I have been known to ask for some quiet time or to say that I do not wish to discuss the issue! This works but not always, depending on the age of the person and whether I am taking care of them or not! So I would say it depends on the relationship. In discussions, we can ignore the ones we do not want to answer!

Depending on the type of questions asked, than i will think whether to answer them :) BUt most of the time, i will just answer as maybe they dun really understand wat i'm saying, so i just explain it in a simplier way to them again ^_^ ANgry, will not be angry because i know they dun mean it to interupt or disturb ^_^

Sometimes I ask stupid questions just to see if the person I am talking to is paying attention to me!! Examples: "What color was that white horse that just went by?", or " What time does the 8:00 movie start?" 
Otherwise, I have patience for pretty much any question that is asked of me. Unless the person is being insulting with their question, such as, "You aren't going to wear that out in public are you?" That is insulting. After all, I am the one wearing whatever it is they are embarressed about, not them!! If they think I don't look good enough to be seen in public with them they can just stay home!!!
PEACE

Yes I am very patient because I'm a firm believer in my Dad's saying "No question is stupid unless you know the answer." Which is true because if the person doesn't know the answer, then how are they going to know unless they ask? Some may be common sense but not everybody posses a common sense brain. There's common sense or book brains, most have either/or but not both. My brother admits to having book brains and having no common sense. Think of it this way, what if it were you asking a "stupid" question? It isn't stupid to you unless you know the answer and would want someone to be patient with you instead of making you feel like a idiot.
