Should I feel dirty for having read this?  I'm really not trying to trick others into providing answers...

Only if you thought it was a good idea at least briefly.
I'd never recommend doing so seriously, have never done it myself, and if looked up over there[^] have enough of their flavor of internet points to make the claim non-credible. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I hardly ever use Q&A, and admit spending very little time in there. Perhaps if you do spend more time in the forums, you will get a sense of how to constructively ask a question that will get thoughtful responses.
But, yes, the customs of the QA tribes are ... strange. Certain phrases, like: "I need;" "I want;" "hurry," "deadline," etc., can trigger ritual violence.

 Ain't that the truth.
Of course I'm not familiar with all the nooks an crannies that exist on CP...I'm a creature of habits and, despite having this account since the late 90s, I mostly stick with articles and the lounge. But you can bet the next time I have coding-related question, I'll try to familiarize myself more with the QA area to get a sense of what typically gets posted...and how.

They do, but they tend to hog it all once they get it home.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
