Answers to 6 of the most common Yahoo!Answers questions
Question: Where can I download [insert expensive program here] for free?
Answer:
Legally? NOWHERE. Unless you win some contest where they are giving it away! If you’re interested in illegally downloading software, do a quick search on Peer-to-Peer (P2P) sharing websites or software. Do not ask on a public forum, where the owner (Yahoo) has all your contact information!

Question: What is a cool nickname for my MySpace profile? My real name is [insert real name here].
Answer:
First of all, nobody cares what your nickname is. Secondly, there is no such thing as a cool nickname for your MySpace profile. Thirdly, go erase whatever sweet layout you chose for your profile – chances are your friends don’t look at it anymore because the flashing bling GIFs you put there are giving them seizures.
Question: How do I access [insert social networking or video site here] from school or work?
Answer:
You don’t. They blocked those sites because they waste time, and you are supposed to be learning or working. It’s why you are at school or at work – shocking I know. If you were smart enough to access these sites and not be caught, you’d already have the internet savvy to know about proxies: how they work, and where to find new ones once the older ones are blocked.
Question: [Enter some bodily dysfunction]!! Help!?
Answer:
GET OFF YOUR COMPUTER. Are you having a life-threatening emergency? Call 911. Are you capable of driving to the emergency room? Go. Are you having some other problem? Go to Urgent Care or call your doctor. Too lazy? Do a Google search of the symptoms. Then call your doctor with your brilliant self-diagnosis.
Question: Answer this one! Please read!
Answer:
Ask your question in the question title, where you’re supposed to! No one wants to click your “Please read” to figure out if it’s something they can even answer! Idiot.
Question: How do you access someone’s [social networking site here] log-in information?
Answer:
Let me guess. You think your boyfriend is cheating on you. Your best friend has been acting strangely. Less likely, you’re a wannabe hacker who is trying to learn the ropes. No matter the case, you fail. Think about the logic here – you would be freaked out if everyone knew how to access other people’s log-in information. Why are you asking the general public how to hack? Again – if you had the skills to hack into someone’s profile, you would have the internet savvy to figure out where to look to find the answer. Hint: It’s not on Yahoo!Answers.
