I think I first heard about Answerbag through Kim Komando's Cool Site of the Day.
-
I think I asked a question on Ask Jeeves, and one of the search results turned out to be from Answerbag, and that's how I first learned of the site.
-
I was searching Google for information with regard to a sulphur smell in my home. I typed in, "sulphur odor" and AnswerBag was one of the responses from Google. I came here in search of, and now I can't seem to leave.

Yeah... up until tonight I believed in this website, until I realized quickly that it isn't so much about answering questions as it is about defending your answers. I certainly don't need anymore agrivation in my life than I already have. Nice concept, though... this website. It needs some safeguards, though (somehow), against vindictive people who have ulterior motives. I give up. I won't be back. See ya! I wish I would not have written this. I won't delete it. It is an example of how emotions can effect judgement. Anger is a fleeting emotion. I should have just backed off and took a break. I will certainly try to do that next time, AB is a good place to ask and answer questions. Thanks!
-
Because I can't seem to leave even when I really meant that I really wanted to leave; just like I said in the first place, which is exactly the answer to the question you just asked which was already answered!
-
I was on another, similar site looking in vain for an answer to soem random question and someone suggested I come here because it was a better site.
-
Through my wife, who had been a contributor to this site for several months prior to my arrival. If I am not mistaken, it was brought to my attention through her reaction to one of the bizarre questions or answers that appear from time to time. Some are just too weird or insane to be passed by without a verbal comment, even when we refrain from answering. Our verbal comments are not always suitable or diplomatic enough to be written down. And sometimes our personal views are radically different from those of other users of this site. ------------------------------------------------------------ Re: "Who's the wife?" That's for me to know and you to wonder about. Just one comment, though. I have yet to meet a woman who appreciates being called "the wife" and some are offended by such remarks. Can't say as I blame them - being treated as an object is demeaning.
-
I was searching for answers to my many varied scholarly questions and discovered it by using Google.

I kinda forget.. I believe I typed into google... Ah yes! From what I remember, and I could possibly be wrong, I was searching for a good wireless mouse. Yes very interesting that I came here.

I too was looking up info on some stuff momons beleive and came across it.

Strange how you worded the question, because I found answerbag using a program called stumbleupon which takes you to a random site based on interests you have (very neat program, web 2.0ish.)
-
To be honest, I can't remember exactly how I came across AB. I THINK an answer came up on a google search for wine making. I expect that is the one, since the first answer I gave is in food and wine. The AnswerBunny contest was just starting at the time I found the site, and I accidentally got myself an AnswerBag t-shirt and $50.00 cold hard cash. (Actually, I got the t-shirt, and my wife spent the cash!)
-
A friend of mine was looking for an answer to a question and the link brought him to answerbag. I thought it was pretty neat and that I could answer questions just as well as the next person so I joined. And I have been here ever since, and I love it. And so do my kids, they think some of the questions are silly and others very helpful and entertaining. Thanks Answerbag gurus!

Two words: Anthony Bourdain.

Answering my own question: I was googling whether I could give my dog fish skin...and amazingly enough their had been a full and enlightening conversation about that here!

I don't remember anything. I have stumbled onto some clues -- trying to patch it together -- but I believe I may have been drugged and kidnapped by trolls, then brought here to be their Master Cylinder. But I escaped the sewers and got addicted to life on the streets of the 'Bag. Now I don't think I can go home anymore, I'm too changed. It's scary.
-
Through Google, but I don't remember now specifically what I was searching.

I was drawn here by this strange Light I saw in the dark, hazy distance. It was a bright, warm Light, and it made me feel safe. I walked toward the Light and reached out to touch it as angelic choirs sang it rapt jubilation all around me. I touched the Light; the Light touched me. I became the Light... the Light coughed. Well, it was more like the Light was clearing it's throat than a cough. Whatever it was, I felt more alive than I had ever felt my entire life! My very soul was vibrating with boundless energy and anticipation. The Light cleared it's throat again, and said, "Um, excuse me?" Startled, but still with every cell of my body, every thought in my mind and every ounce of my soul utterly and completely engaged at being one with the Light, I replied, "Yes?" "Um, " the Light said again, "You're in my 'Me' space. Would you mind...?" And it was gone. Leaving me online with Answerbag looking up why the Mr. Clean Magic Erasure worked so freakin' awesome.

I think I was looking up the chinese new year to see if I could put it in the newsletter for my apartment complex in the Jan. issue. No such luck. But then I was looking at the other questions and was curious... Here you can ask dumb questions or give illogical answers or even logical ones and its okay. <Rubbing hands gleefully and cackling> At last! [Google obviously got tired of finding all those odd answers for me, and sent me to where they specialize in odd answers. <Grin>]
