Hmm, and here I was considering starting my own “Ask the …” thread. Would anybody be interested in an “Ask the guy who has gone without sex longer than Cecil has been writing his column” thread? I’m being serious and I honestly have no idea how that would go over. ---

Hahaha. I’d start one, but don’t have expertise. ---

> [@The Devil's Grandmother](#): > > Hey Kiwi, are there a lot of tourists in New Zealand? I’ve heard the fishing is really good there and after seeing Lord of the Rings, I wanna come for a visit. Is the fishing any good? Are there any places one can freely hike that look like the landscape in LotR? Is there a National Parks system? Thanks for any help. Yes, the fishing is very good. Yes, you can tramp (Kiwi for hike) in many of the LOTR places. Yes, there are 14 national parks.

Oh look I was an attention whore 🙂 ---

I like the “Ask The …” threads. Some are highly informative: \*\* Ask the former phone sex operator \*\* was really interesting. And I beleive it all started with **Ask the Gay Guy** way back in nineteen aught eleventy twelve, by Esprix. The “ask the SAHM” threads sink like a bowling ball in the ocean, so I will leave it up to the REST of YOU to do something interesting with your lives so that I may live vicariously thought you. No pressure. ---

Hey, the ask the… threads here aren’t nearly as bad as other places. On another board I sometimes frequent, they have ask [user name of thread starter]. and they are often stickied. _shudder_ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ask-someone-who-gives-a-shit/287570.md?page=2)
