Fake AskMe question?

AskMe questions that read like a letter to Ann Landers c. 1962 are probably fake.

Awesome belated answer on obscure criminal case

About 14 months ago, I posted a random Ask Metafilter about an obscure criminal case and described it in weak detail.

Which is really neat. So I just want to point out how cool it is that someone should do that.

Please confine your AskMe answers to answers.

Here's an excellent example of people pulling AskMe answers out of their asses. If you don't know Latin, don't answer.
