I sense naivety rather than sinister motives. I have been wrong before but let's not quibble about the whole of my life up to this point.

The site is a touch weird too:
Is it true that black people have an extra muscle in their legs. I heard that when I was a kid and am wondering
Can you drink a gallon of milk in an hour? For $100?

I'm sick of giving spammers to this site more hits because the callouts don't specify what it is. The askme thread was posted 20 minutes ago. We can give mods a chance to take care of things.

And it's not innocent confusion. User posts project; user posts askme "question" that claims they "found" the site. This is (imbicilic) deceptive shilling. Ban and ban hard.
