| Dec 10, 2014 at 19:10 | comment | added | Shokhet | I hear what you're saying. I didn't choose this question as the example of an on-topic question, though I did notice that it was linked to in a number of Meta posts. I absolutely agree with you that answers should not be used to judge questions.....I'm currently working on an answer to meta.lifehacks.stackexchange.com/q/8/59....I think I have a way of dealing with it. | |
| Dec 10, 2014 at 19:07 | comment | added | Sterno | @Shokhet I'm only picking on this because it was held up as the epitome of a good question. I think it suffers from the same problem as a lot of the other questions... it has a pretty obvious, common-sense answer that solves the problem. The difference here is that it has a clever non-obvious answer, too. I fear that cleverness of answers as a metric for question topicality will be a problem. | |
| Dec 10, 2014 at 19:02 | comment | added | Shokhet | Cute :) ....that's also a little small, and hygienically questionable ( it's a washing cup, for Jewish hand-washing rituals ) | |
| Dec 10, 2014 at 19:01 | comment | added | Sterno | I found you another container | |
| Dec 10, 2014 at 18:57 | comment | added | Shokhet | True....but at 8 ounces a fill, that would be tremendously tedious. ( and my friend's solution has been reused, several times ;-) | |
| Dec 10, 2014 at 18:55 | comment | added | Sterno | A single Styrofoam cup would work! And could be reused later! | |
| Dec 10, 2014 at 18:55 | comment | added | Shokhet | +1. That works too :) .....part of my problem was that I didn't have a smaller container, but since I didn't mention that in the question, this is a good answer :) | |
