Because most of your questions are very questionable…..

Did you order the Code Red?

There you go again!

I’d rather have questions I can’t answer than answers I can’t question.

I’m okay with answering questions with questions, mostly. I have a harder time when a simple question with a yes or no answer becomes a rambling story. Please, answer the question. Then tell the story if you need to.
