That meme of "I don't understand [basic concept from wikipedia, googleable phrase, dictionary word] can you explain it?"

Has infected the hell out of our company Slack. It's considered very rude to not answer.

I feel like when I was coming up, where IRC or mailing lists were a thing, having done all possible research before asking humans was an absolute cultural requirement.

It sucked at first, but I definitely miss that and long for the old days. It was so much more respectful and efficient.
