    How dumb a question can you think up......?

    From a forum somewhere else.........

    I'll be going to XXXXXXX shortly, and will be wearing my XXXXXXXXX most of the time including in the pool or ocean. What do I need to do to the XXXXXXX after swimming? Wash it off? What do I dry it with? Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    Er..... water and a cloth!!!! - jeez, get a life...

    (or is it distilled water and a chamois :? )

    Err...I'm going on holiday with my new Rolex Sea Dweller. Will it be alright to go in the hot tub at the hotel with my new Rolex? If I take it off will it get stolen?

    You get those from time to time - "I'll be going to an exclusive club later with lots of celebrities - should I wear my stainless steel Daytona or my Patek?". The ones on the auto forums are even more imaginative. On a website devoted to petrolheads trying to run their old C-Classes on a shoestring: "what music should I listen to whilst driving my 560 bhp AMG SL63 down Sunset Boulevard with a hot model in the passenger seat?"

    The same music playing in most of your other dreams, I should imagine :)
    ...but what do I know; I don't even like watches!

    Well on further reflection, perhaps the poor bloke isn't 100% sure that it's a good idea to wash salty or chorinated water off your watch, sorry, "timepiece".

    Isn't something like this usually in the manual?

    I'm a self-obsessed attention whore. What's the best way of getting people to notice me on a web-based forum?

    Jocke, you have to try harder. Being account banned is only half the job. You have to get yourself completely banned:

    I don't have to think up dumb questions. eBay customers very often take care of that little chore for me . . .

    Seller: "I only ship to USA"
    Buyer: "How much to ship to Viet Nam?"

    Seller: "the watch is 33mm diameter excluding the crown . . . the movement has just been serviced and is keeping very good time"
    Buyer: "What is the diameter without the crown and is it accurate?"

    These were two out of my five most recent sales :?

    Just not too long ago there was this person who posted a poll of the WUS G-Shock forum: "Do you talk to your G-Shock"? and "Have you named your G-Shock"?

    The guy was serious and in need of serious help.

    I have also seen a similar thread on what the gender of G-shocks might be. I don't really want to think what the fetish might involve.

    It doesn't get really bad until you have an argument with the G-shock, and lose.
