Are there stupid questions?

Bob known as Jake once observed to Bob that:

A.T-S.R -- There is no such thing as a stupid question, i only a stupid questioner.

Q: I have a stupid question about computers. Is this a good place to ask it?

A: There are no such things as stupid questions. There are only questions that let anyone even mildly knowledgeable realise that the person who asked them has zero clue and a negative chance of ever getting any. Questions that make the reader realise that it unfortunate for all involved that the questioner was ever allowed within twenty--no, fifty--feet of a computer. Questions that make the average tech support person want to track down the person posting the question and engrave the answer on the querant's body a million times with a soldering iron.

This is not a good place to ask questions like that.
