"How tall is Donald Trump?" and other weird questions online.
In this thread, I want you to share the strangest questions you've seen on forums or social media. Get creative. Let's shock each other before 2022. BTW the answer is 190 cm or 6 foot 2 (according to the internet).

I would like the people who make this question popular to share their secrets! “How come I never get sick” .

Sara PintoDec 22, 2021, 4:14 PM

Mónica Freitas, "What happens if you eat plastic"... Is anyone planning on doing it and just balancing out the chances? Haha.

Mónica FreitasDec 23, 2021, 3:06 PM

Linh Smooke, HOW? I feel like I'm constantly sick during the wintertime. I think we need to reach out to those people. This calls for an investigation.

Mónica FreitasDec 23, 2021, 3:08 PM

Sara Pinto, Oh, to be the most "developed" living being on earth...ahahaha, I think this follows the same line of "what happens if you swallow gum."

I also appreciate this question: what happens if a woman takes viagra? It seems like a lot of people are experimenting 🤔

Mónica Freitas, so, I tried to search for weird questions in Portuguese, I just typed the start of a question, and the first thing that popped up was: " Why don't animals drive?" 😂 Important question! Everyone should try this in their first language.

Mónica FreitasDec 27, 2021, 2:49 PM

Sara Pinto, ahahaha why don't they? I want to know!

Mónica FreitasDec 27, 2021, 2:51 PM

Sara Pinto, for me it was: why does it have to be like this? I guess people are slightly depressed at the moment.

Sara PintoDec 27, 2021, 3:00 PM

Mónica Freitas, personally, I think it would be kinda weird to see a duck turn the wheel with its wings 😂

Sara PintoDec 27, 2021, 3:05 PM

Mónica Freitas, I see there are a wide variety of questions. What are the weirdest ones you have found? Khamisi Hamisi, Jack Boreham

Mónica FreitasDec 27, 2021, 3:15 PM

I think it would be adorable, ahah.

Why are animals important?

Jack BorehamJan 1, 2022, 10:54 AM

What kind of question is that?

Mónica FreitasJan 3, 2022, 2:21 PM

Jack Boreham, my bet on the first one is that it is connected to vegetarianism. Someone is probably researching reasons to change their diet.

Mónica FreitasJan 3, 2022, 2:22 PM

Jack Boreham, have you seen the second one online? Ahahaha

Jack BorehamJan 3, 2022, 9:50 PM

Mónica Freitas 😜

Mónica FreitasJan 5, 2022, 3:08 PM

Apparently, there's a lot of people trying to figure how the difference between a restaurant and a cafe.

Mónica FreitasJan 5, 2022, 3:11 PM

Also, how to test rice purity is trending.

Mónica FreitasJan 5, 2022, 3:12 PM

Abeer, what weird questions have you seen online?

AbeerJan 5, 2022, 6:03 PM

Mónica Freitas, I remember seeing screenshots from Yahoo Answers with some of the most ridiculous questions. The only one I can think of off the top of my head is “Does looking at a picture of the sun hurt your eyes?”

Mónica FreitasJan 6, 2022, 12:46 PM

Abeer Nah...is that for real?! Ahahah
