Smart Alec Answers

[milly143]

Mostly, you get useful answers to your questions on here but there are some real smart a***s about who don't have an answer to what you ask, just a smug little comment. It's really quite irritating.

I agree milly just ignore those and converse with the helpful ones ;-0)

[society]

Give an example...

[anneasquith]

very true, but i agree with bobbi, they hate being ignored,dont let it bother you .

[McMouse]

You're so right.

[boxtops]

give us an example milly, is it the same people usually? If so - some do, I'm afraid. The rest try to be helpful.

I think she is referring to an answer given on her carpet cleaning post.

[Bobbisox]

milly I thought you were a newbie and here's me giving you advice...LOL
you have been around for 6 yrs so you surely know who to ignore by now

[milly143]

Example on a Q I asked about cleaning a beige carpet and someone simply replied saying don't buy a beige carpet. That's about as useful an answer as a chocolate teapot.

[sherrardk]

That person only joined today - maybe they are a troll.

Hi Bobbi, I used to use AB alot and then stopped using it but have become addicted again recently so lots of people im not familiar with. I looked at the particular user I was referring to and saw his answer to my post was his only posting. Should have looked first and ignored.

[Sqad]

milly....c`mon....you AB is bread and butter for the "smart Alecs"......no big deal.

[supersuezy24]

It's been said before but ignore them, bothers them more.

I spilt wax on the beige carpet in the sitting room a few months back when blowing out a candle and came on here and got advice about removing it, brown paper bag over it and iron over the brown aper bag on a low heat and what do ya know it was gone, never been so relieved in my life as the parents would of killed me hahah

[cazzz1975]

lol milly, your question may have spurred him to register just so he could reply like a fool ;)

[Bobbisox]

well I will reiterate what I said Milly, ignore those people and chat to others ;-)

[anneasquith]

milly, i think answers can be misinterperated "spell" .we all have a different sense of humour. and what you reply to a question may be just a bit of fun, but i may think cheeky and irrelevant, imo.

[milly143]

Yes, maybe. I am one of these slightly defensive types so I might have taken what he said in the wrong manor. Ho hum. Better do some work now.

[DEN53]

Mostly Milly, people on here are lovely and you will always find a sensible answer and a kind word, but as in life you will always get the few who are numpties...(:0 )

[dotty.]

I often just make a reply to see my name on the page.........oh no that';s not me that's someone else, I just answer when what and how I choose, if it annoys folk I don't care, it's my dime

[Bobbisox]

'DIME' dotty, buddy can you spare it...sorry..flippancy isn't my strong point..LOL
