There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.


Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!


Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐Ÿ‰.

Yes, stupid questions are ones that could be answered by the information the asker already has with just a little thought. Its intellectual laziness

That's often confused with ignorance, where you lack some unknown piece of information to complete the puzzle
