Where will the lost and lonely furtively sneak off to next?
The other 'John' - John Hume; was he really a hero, or an errand boy for the IRA (according to Ian Paisley)?
The Good Friday agreement has been one of the greatest achievements in British Politics in the 20th century, but did he also allegedly exploit a staged conflict for his own gain in years past?
After the important suits have returned to their everyday workplaces after remembering his lifetime amongst the 'good' and 'bad' - will it be the turn of the less knowing public to act the same way they did towards the other civil rights hero (from America) - who was hardly known, until some of us rushed to Wikipedia?
3 AnswersCurrent Events9 months agoDespite our 'pain' at the comment section being removed, shouldn't we be more angered at people on here who spitefully report others?
I'm thinking of those who spend most of their time on here removing questions (and answers) which irritate them, or have them act up in a way they most certainly wouldn't do out in public - and I speak from England; the internet has become the great saviour. There have been people on here who have been fine members - but have, in time have just left - or worst, been kicked off by bullies. And as a result many (myself included) have been anonymous now for coming up to two years. What does Yahoo think of that? The various modes of aggression on here to people who happen to treat this site as it originally was.

Anyone impressed, or disgusted?
6 AnswersCurrent Events2 years agoThe Boris Johnson snap fed to the Daily Mail; 'So Much In Love', after his domestic. Is this photo a week, a few months - or even years old?
He was being questioned on LBC this morning, and had it thrown at him every which way...and like a con in a cell being pressured by good cop-bad cop, he acted like one.
I know - there are many who will say there are other MP's who would never have received such treatment, but his record so far has been, to many terrifying.
7 AnswersCurrent Events2 years agoIs it easy on here to misunderstand certain questions, or do some just target others out of spite?
I answered one last night, headed 'How many gay members now remain the Brexit party now they realise Anne Widdecombe now plans to cure them'. Had another look at it this morning to see if anyone more answers had been added, but it had been 'reported'.
I realise nowadays you can't appeal reported questions (or answers) - as you're never informed nowadays, but this question was offending nobody - unless the reporter(s) felt offended at the asker feeling concerned about the obvious feelings we're seeing aimed at gays in the UK today.
2 AnswersYahoo Answers2 years agoWhat word (or words) do you think will be over-used by the media, and spoken by many in the English speaking world this year?
In 2017, we were assaulted by some scary terms, with 'Fake News' pushing its way to the top. And what about 'Antifa', which was even spoken by certain Londoners close to where I live, despite it - and 'Fake News' coming from the American President. And talking about Mr Trump, the word 'Bigly' - apparently he didn't say that, but 'big league'. Closer to home, we had 'Corbynmania', but we just couldn't keep our eyes off our computers as Mr Trump got his laptop out.
6 AnswersWords & Wordplay3 years agoDoes anyone think David Davis is up to the job of 'Brexit Secretary', or he is just making it up as he goes along?
Mr. Davis isn't remotely ashamed of his lack of preparation. Indeed he openly admits that he's 'not a fan' of economic models because, according to him, they're 'always wrong'.
Perhaps he's thinking of himself, along with colleagues fleeing to rich islands when the 'job' is done, putting the whole of Britain in doubt. And what happens then? Just blame immigrants. Again.
2 AnswersCurrent Events3 years agoI don't understand the EU, and what I do claim to know comes mainly from angry headlines. Am I one of many, especially in England?
...who has in the last two years has taken notice of Mr. Murdoch, Paul Dacre and the rest of the band and become slightly less clearer in thought?
Have just come back from the Polling Station, and now sitting, smelling the freshly cut grass of the Common close to where I live. Can imagine what games the same sections of the media will be playing tomorrow, but right now, there seems to be a 'silence before the storm', as it goes, which I suspect is understandable, as we're told it is extremely close to call.
5 AnswersPolitics5 years agoWhen you ask a question which you place in 'News & Events', but find it placed elsewhere later in the day, who can you report?
My last few questions over the past six months have obviously been either 'Current Events' - or in the News & Events section, but recently have found a couple moved elsewhere, with the two favourite categories being either 'Family or Relationships' - or even weird, 'Pregnancy and Parenting'.
Why do people do such things - and can I stop it happening?
4 AnswersYahoo Answers5 years agoArt critic Brian Sewell dead. Was he really a 'dire mix of sexual and class hypocrisy, intellectual posturing and artistic prejudice'...?
...or loyal to what he believed to the very end?
10 AnswersOther - Society & Culture6 years agoWhat is the most grand answer you have seen on Yahoo! Answers in 2014?
Mine has to be this one - the question itself wasn't much to look at - but 2014 was the year I happened to experience the other side of Y!A (not really knowing why), when I happened to bump into the sort of people on here who, as we're told, has turned it in to the 'madhouse' it has allegedly become.

For those who 'learned lessons' of their own on here this year, deciding the real world is considerably better (and don't come on too often now), Happy New Year.
2 AnswersCurrent Events6 years agoTheatre collapse; London tickets may have become expensive, but how much is spent on the upkeep?
I have been going for the past twenty years, with friends - and am told there is such a thing as a 'restoration levy', which can be around 2.00, depending on where the theatre is. Of course not a great deal of these have happened, but will there be more questioning of where the money goes?
This incident was blamed on the current behaviour of Mother Nature (in the Global Warming section), but nonetheless - didn't anyone at the Apollo do frequent tests to see if parts of the masonry was unsteady?
