18 Dumbest Yahoo Questions That Will Make You Lose Faith In Humanity

If it sounds stupid in your head, you probably shouldn't put it on the internet.

Yahoo Answers is an invaluable resource. Perhaps you needed an answer to a question and simply couldn't be bothered to type into Google and would rather wait ten hours for several people - mostly unhelpful - to reply instead? It's like asking a question on Facebook; Google is right there, why badger poor people and make them answer your silly questions? The official term for that is "foogling," as it happens. Thankfully Yahoo Answers is much more fun than Facebook when you delve into the absolutely crazy things that people say on there, because some of the answers are almost provocatively unhelpful. And some of the questions are even more baffling. That's the beauty of it you see; anyone can ask anything on Yahoo Answers, and that leads to so many opportunities for the human race to prove itself as true masters of idiocy. If you had any faith whatsoever in humanity, prepare to have it dashed by the dumbest things you're likely to see today.

18. Liking Sonic Far Too Much

Sonic Yahoo AnswersAnswer: No, no it isn't. Unless of course this child has played Sonic 06, in which Sonic falls in love with a human who also appears to share the feelings. It's easy to see how that one could scar a kid for life really.

17. Engrish Ghost Hamster

Hamster Yahoo Answers It's hard to tell what's more disturbing about this one: is it the fact that this child (at least, you'd have to hope that it's a child) genuinely believes that she'll be haunted by the ghost of her squashed hamster, is the fact that come is spelt the wrong way that means something very different or is the beautiful use of the English lanugage? Pretty sure hampster, ova, bc, frend, futbll, wit, n, rode, gost and lif aren't words.

16. Where Are They, Whoopi?

Whoopi Yahoo Answers Yep, someone was genuinely baffled enough by Whoopi Goldberg's face and apparent lack of eyebrows that they took to Yahoo Answers to demand to know what had happened, complete with question marks and exclamation marks galore for extra effect, naturally.
