Cast your mind back to the year 2008.
Barack Obama became the first black president of the United States. The first ever episode of Breaking Bad aired on TV. Lady Gaga was but a new phenomenon.
Yahoo Answers was also a thing that people still actively used, seeking explanations to every day queries that they simply couldn't bare to present to their friends.
The questions were lacking in detail, the answers were blunt, the entire website was a cesspit of total nonsense with a bit of logic and genuine earnest thrown in for good measure.
It was a special place. I miss it.
So, without further ado, here are 15 questions that I would definitely ask Yahoo Answers now if people still used Yahoo Answers* with the intention of receiving fair and honest responses.
