Are you familiar with Google?

A couple weeks ago or so, FastFoodCritic posted a topic in which he voiced his annoyance with people promoting their sites as signatures to their posts. While I didn't agree with him, and also didn't bother commenting on that thread, I do think he is right in pointing out some annoying behaviors in this forum.

The most annoying one to me, is people posting questions that can easily be answered by doing a little bit of easy searching. Questions like "where can I get San Marzano Tomato seeds" for example... Certain questions can't be answered by searching the internet, and those are the truly interesting questions, and the ones that a forum like this one are made to solve. I find it really annoying when people don't even bother to search first on their own.

To those posting these silly questions: are you really not familiar with Google? Are you just lazy? Do you realize that it takes more effort for you to post your innane questions, then come back and check to see if they were answered, than to just look it up yourself? What gives???
