“Why Do So Many Music Venues Use Ticketmaster?” “What’s It Like to Train to Be a Sushi Chef?” “How Do Martial Artists Break Concrete Blocks?” If you were looking for answers to such questions 10 years ago, your best resource for finding a thorough, expert-informed response likely would have been one of the most interesting and longest-lasting corners of the internet: Quora.

I've been pouring my life into the Internet since before Quora existed.

There was never a time I recall Quora not being shit. All it ever did was dilute search results.

Any time Quora results come up my search gets an instant -Quora. That site is a wet fart... terrible
