Help answer this question below.

One of our homework questioners is trolling me because I answer homework questions with "Romaine Lettuce" and I actually take pride in this! Is that normal?

I find your romaine lettuce quite funny!

I have started something else I find hysterical!

Why not just ignore questions that seem to be from homework assignments, or give some guidance on how the solution can be found?
Comments
- If they ask for guidance, I will offer it. When they ask a question like "DEFINE (7x4)+32/23" it's obvious they don't want to learn, and I am the type of person that likes to learn. So, that said, if I can push one person to actually learn on their own, I've done good.

I think you are probably insane, but harmless. I collect trolls, too.
Comments
- Insane? More like a gentle not really caring about what people think and having as much fun with life as I can.

For you my friend, perfectly; keep up the good work!
Perhaps mix it up with Milk Bones as an answer?
Great to have such a watchdog as yourself! :-)~

Some people don't like the bitterness. Tell the troll to use a bit of Balsamic Vinegar and Olive oil, in equal potions.

What..that you're being trolled, or that you take pride in your "romaine lettuce" answer? Both are normal to me. :)

1) I don't find all homework questions annoying. I find some of them are the occasion of an interesting research. If I find them interesting, I answer them.

2) I usually don't like those questions who have an obvious homework formulation without any reformulating effort. It looks like: look, I got this to do, can you do that for me? Moreover, I usually hated the way some questions were asked at school.
I usually ignore those questions.

I like to answer educational questions when:
- the asker seem to have a real interest to know the answer (except doing their homework)
- the answer could be interesting for many people
- the research could be interesting for me

3) I have noticed you "romaine lettuce" answers a couple of times. I find it at its best a refreshing insider joke, but at its worst such an answer could be considered technically as nonsense and could be flagged as such. I would not use it too much.
Comments
- I disagree with your ideas. If it is clearly not homework, I have no problem with supplying answers. However, I think that learning HOW to research a subject is the bigger part of homework assignments. If you like to do research, do so. It would even be nice if you spent the time helping a student learn how to do a successful online search for information. But please let the kids learn how to do it for themselves. We do them no favor when we "help".

What do you expect from an immature kid who wants you to do his homework for him? I like your answer!
I think that learning HOW to research a subject is the bigger part of homework assignments and I disagree with Iwinit's idea of answering for various reasons and for saying he considers your answers nonsense.
Comments
- Hey Nelson! I think I inherited your troll! How dare I call an immature kid an immature kid! He had to prove I was right! Cool, huh? :-)

How is he trolling you? And did he make a salad with all that lettuce he has?
Comments
- It gave me a series of negative 2's. No big whoop. It's more fun calling them on it than actually worrying about it.

When kids ask obvious test or homework questions, do you enjoy making up random answers? If you do, do you ever wonder if they actually use the answer you gave them?

Do anyother parents here get the feeling that some of the questions that are being asked is homework related, and that by answering these questions we are infact actually doing someones homework, lol?

When you see questions that sound as if they might be homework questions do you answer them or do you think the questioner should research it for themselves if the homework is going to have any value?

Im in a emt-b class and he has gave us a crap load of homework and one of the questions he said we must answer is "what is it called when the intestines are on the outside?".I have looked everywhere and can't find it...thanks 4 the help! =]

Why do so many people try to cheat on their homework on AB? And why do people answer the questions? Are they just that stupid that they don't realize it's a homework question?
