Why can't I get good answers to semi-funny questions here? When I ask why Rabies doesn't cause an apocalypse on Ask, I'm told it's a slow-onset disease. I ask same question here (Ask's Q&A's going away) and am told to grow up and stop being stupid.

Some new users from *cough* *couch* ask.com have no sense of humour.. (I came from Sodahead where everyone was funny and had good humour but the site closed recently). There is a similar site called amirite.com (some former sodaheads  moved there last week when the site was discovered since it's somewhat similar to sodahead (but not nearly as good). but most of the funnier sodaheads haven't arrived there yet). I'm still trying my best to get them to come here lol

Amirite would be perfect for you if you want to be more humorous, and let loose a bit.

Sometimes people are just void of all humor. Also, as this is a Q&A site, people tend to view the questions in a more literal fashion. I have seen your questions on rabies and the apocalypse and I must admit, it was difficult to decipher the humor and does give the appearance of being childish. My advice would be to find another way to word your questions so that it is clear that humor is your main intent. Best of luck to you.

I think this is a more mature site than Ask, so maybe something that is viewed as funny on Ask is viewed as trolling or time-wasting on Blurtit.

from what i have noticed. it is some of the ask users that are making the site serious, they don't know how to let loose very much since their former site was really strict. this site has some room from fun questions. which they aren't use too.

although, in my opinion. i think blurtit's UI looks more mature than Ask's. but the rules aren't nearly as strict when it comes to asking questions.

Perhaps the immature answerers have not made the switch as yet.

Good answer ! I had to remove one answer as it was rude and abrasive and I hardly ever have to do that!

LOL Rooster, this person has asked this Q more then once. And being a former Askee, I never saw it over there, but it was a pretty busy site.

That's OK, I think she was just joking and some people just have no sense of humor. I just don't answer that stuff if I don't have anything good to say ! LOL
