Does it bug anyone besides me when people phrase their question in the form of a demand that happens to have a "?" at the end of it? eg "Identify this pill with these markings?"

    yes it does!! some newspapers even do that sometimes, so what can you expect!!
    it also bothers me when people make a statement without a questionmark "identify this pill!". i mean, you're supposed to ask a question. just rephrase, come on, you can do it!!
    (i guess i'm just not a very relaxed person)

    • No, you're not unrelaxed, its very annoying. Its like you're being given and assignment-which is a whole different pet peeve, people who demand answers to what are clearly homework assignments! I'm all for helping out but the ones that are like "explain the symbolism of the skull in the third scene of act II of hamlet and give examples of the use of imagery throughout the play." Uh yeah, let me dig out my eighth grade English notes for you...btw is there even an Act II Scene III in Hamlet? lol
