What questions do you hate being asked and why? (kbin.social)

I hate it when people on social media, dare ask questions when you know they're fishing for personal information/ammo on people to exploit. Like asking for people's dark secrets. Why do you want to know? Is there a fetish to this? Nobody is going to be dead serious, they're just going to give softball answers and why should they trust you, random stranger online?

And I hate money-based questions. Unless I am given a large sum of money or if any of the money scenarios where I am given money comes true, I'm not going to answer these questions because I'm tired of fantasizing about something that will never likely happen in my life. You ask what I'd do with $10,000? Give it to me and I'll show you. Otherwise, don't ask.

"What's your name?"

Are you a wizard? Are to trying to summon and bind me?

"How was your day?"

Dude, that was so long ago, how could it be important now? It's already over.

"What do you want for dinner?"

While for a while I just always said "fajitas", this one is a thorny one. I am psychologically incapable of separating the question "what do you want to eat?" from "what do you want to cook?" and thus my reply will either be rooted in anxiety or exhaustion.

Why doesn't anyone ever ask the interesting questions, like "What's your opinion of the designated hitter rule?" or "Which has done more harm to human ethical progress, dualism or tribalism?"

What is your opinion of the designated hitter rule?
