The
sidebar (see Apr 12) featured
this post, in which someone's seemingly obscure question was answered in just six minutes. I think MY
experience was even more amazing (as my question was more obscure), though it did take Gator an hour and ten minutes to cough up an answer. What are some other AskMe Astounding Stories of Snappy Answers to Obscure Questions?

This (Medical Marijuana ask.mefi thread) is a good example of an ask metafilter thread where people don't answer the specific question of the poster, but still remain civil and helpful. Yay. So there's an existence proof that people can be helpful while not answering the question asked (and not fall all over themselves to be jerks).

Is
this the worst AskMe response yet? By my count fifteen of the eighteen comments do not answer the question and should be deleted.
