Do you find it annoying when people ask you what a word means while on the internet? (Especially with Dictionary.com at their disposal?)

As I quote my sources, I suppose they could look it up themselves next time. I do not usually look up words in Dictionary.com myself, maybe I should...

Sometimes the asker is looking for how other people use it, or what other people think it means, rather than the actual dictionary definition.

I find it even more annoying when someone is in front of a computer that has the internet and sitting next to an actual dictionary and asks me how to spell something! My assistant at work does this all the time and it's her job to make sure things are spelled correctly!

No. If I don't want to be bothered with it...I don't answer.
