seems like a valuable conversational technique, especially with someone you don't know well or whose depths you are trying to mine: get them to ask themself the question and then to answer it
This may also be a great stalled conversation technique! "Hey, what's a question you'd love for someone to ask you?"
(Also I had fun replying to this non-ask Ask)
i try really hard to ask interesting questions — mainly because I hate small talk but also because a great question opens many doors and rabbit holes. a great question can catch people off guard, make them think and helps you learn so much about who they are and what they value. so when people say this to me, I won’t lie it feels great
I love asking friends family strangers on the internet questions I could surely answer for myself. It keeps a conversation going, or is a fantastic start. I think it can also give ppl a chance to show off and talk about stuff they’re passionate about.
this is worthy of celebration: the lack of video—autoplay video, noisy inane video, panicky video, algorithmic, dumb video, rabbit hole video, any video—on pi.fyi is a good thing
