These individuals display unpredictable behaviors and may alternate between being friendly and hostile towards others. Their actions and intentions are often questionable and can be characterized by deception and unpredictability.

Sarah never knows how to interact with her coworker, John, as he is a walking question mark. One moment he is helpful and cheerful, and the next moment he becomes distant and dismissive.

beg the question

Phrase that is now used instead of "raises the question" due to the fact that the true definition is unintelligible to most people, and has little to do with an actual question.

Best not to use it at all, as you will either sound ignorant to geeks, or geeky to regular people.

Common (wrong) usage:
That really begs the question, why did she do it?

Geek (right) usage:
I'm cooler than you, because you aren't as cool as me.
- beg the question -
