Can we talk about people who think they can skip reading the whole question and still give a good answer?

I hang out in a few forums where people ask for advice with specific details. Like someone will say 'I have a 2005 Honda Civic with 180k miles and it makes a clicking noise when I turn left.' Then someone replies with 'just buy a new car' or 'check the oil.' Like did you even read the whole thing? It's not about the miles or the car, it's about the left turn click. I see this at least 3 times a day. Why do so many people jump to a canned answer instead of actually processing the question? Have you noticed this too or am I just too picky about how people respond?

Wait, THREE times a day? That's INSANE.

I tried that twice a day for two weeks and it wrecked my digestion honestly. My friend who's a nutritionist said anything more than once is overkill for most people unless you're doing serious athlete level training. Your mileage may vary but I'd start with one and see how your body handles it before doubling down. Slow and steady wins the race with that stuff.
