There may not be such a thing as a stupid question, but that doesn’t mean some aren’t better than others. This week, our commenters raised many deep questions and, in the spirit of Philip K. Dick, we will leave them unanswered for you to ponder. Have fun.

You can wonder about any of the following enigmas:

From Cynthia_Walker’s reaction to Andrea Sachs’ interview with Zane, the “Queen of Erotica”:

To be honest, I didnt see what the big deal was about 5o Shades of Grey. I thought to myself HAVE THEY NOT READ A ZANE BOOK

From Kyle T.  Grenell’s reaction to Tim Newcomb’s piece about Dane Cook’s apology for making a joke about the Aurora shooting:

Jokes are funny.. comedians are funny.. neither of these apply to him. I often wonder how there hasn’t been a unanimous worldwide agreement to shun him until he goes away.

From SPB3006 on James Poniewozik’s take on NBC’s coverage of the Olympic opening ceremony, and the overwhelming amount of commentary from the network’s anchors:

…do they believe we cannot actually tell what is on the screen?

Fijidan on James Poniewozik’s recap of the latest episode of Breaking Bad:

Was Dexter the assistant set decorator for this episode?  The “cook tent” sure looked a lot like one of Dexter’s “kill rooms.”

And finally, an answer, rather than a question. We wouldn’t leave you hanging like that.

If you were wondering how to go see the an opening-weekend showing of the upcoming James Bond movie Skyfall, Jodun has the answer:

I’ve already told my boss I will be taking off Nov. 9th for “religious observances”. Now I just need to sell him on Dec. 14th for Part I of The Hobbit.
