New Addiction

While at work on Friday I discovered something that has quickly become a new addiction. I have been checking and updating it at every opportunity.
WikiAnswers is a site linked to Wikipedia on which anyone can pose a question and equally anyone can answer it. So, I set myself up as a member and have been answering questions since Friday. I have only made 44 contributions so far, but the addictive thing about the site is reading what some of the questions are. Some are written in very bad English and I can only assume that either the posers of the questions are foreign (and thus speak vastly better English than I speak any other language), or are using a translator that doesn't quite do it. Then again, some of the questions, especially the ones about relationships, are just plain funny.

Here are some examples of the questions on there right now:
Who sings only got four mints to save the world?
What was Adolf Hitlers childhood like during both the wars?
Whats good with lesbians?

To the really obscure:
What items did Lincoln have with him when he got shot?
Is there a list of clothing in alphabetical order?

I've put the individual links in so you can check that I am not making these up. If you check it out enjoy and pass on the fun, and the knowledge.
