Stupid questions, stupid answers...

One of my jobs at work is to manage our bug database. This is the place where we write up and track all of the various problems that are found with the software release that we are working on. Since I am a nit-picky little bastard and write lots of bugs, they put me in charge of the database.

Anyway, today I made a modification to one of the fields in the database and then sent out an e-mail to let everyone know about the change, along with the usual, 'let me know if you have any questions,' line at the end.

So of course, and I totally expected something like this, one of my wise-ass co-workers writes back with a long list of silly questions.

Here they are for your entertainment, along with my off-the-cuff answers.

Here are some Meaningless Questions. These are random questions off the top of my head that have no meaning or purpose, other than having fun. Feel free to answer them, or not, in the comments. Feel free to write in your own, different answers if you want to, or explain your answers... Whatever man! It's all good, so go nuts!

1. Starbucks or Dunkins'
2. Car or Pickup truck
3. Boston Globe or Boston Herald
4. Original, Unaltered Star Wars or New and Improved Star Wars
5. Steak or Chicken
