Small-Scale Question Sunday for December 17, 2023

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

The singer in my band is emigrating, so I'm looking for a replacement. I posted an ad on Facebook and on a local forum. I've never had any luck finding band members on Reddit, but I figured there'd be no harm in trying, so I found the subreddit for my country and posted the ad. It read something like "Looking for a lead singer for a band in [city]. Powerful vocals and good stage presence are a must. Experience in a recording studio, rhythm guitar skills and own transport are a plus, but not essential."

The first reply was "Hi, I'd like to join your band! The only thing is, I have no experience in a recording studio, don't have a car, can't play the guitar, don't live in [city] and I can't sing."

Har de har har, hilarious. I immediately remembered why (and how much) I hate Reddit, and deleted the post.
