The Cremation Question

A question made by Tumblr user @biggest-gaudiest-patronuses: "If you were cremated and had your ashes turned into a vinyl record that could play only one song, what song would it play?" This question is often asked to celebrities on Tumblr.
John: Did you hear that your favorite band is doing a Q&A on Tumblr?
Sarah: Yeah! I think I'll ask them The Cremation Question.

Unrhetorical question

When you have an answer to a question but the person you are asking is not allowed to answer your question but the question makes the reader/person being asked the question think like a normal rhetorical question
"Don't I look adorable? " the answer is yes but the person being asked the question is not allowed to answer because that is the rules of an unrhetorical question.

Begging the question

When the evidence to support a person’s argument is the argument itself, just restated or said differently. Usually when the person making the claim can’t think of any reasons to support their own claim.
Person 1: Dogs are better than cats because they just are.
Person 2: What do you mean they “just are”? What is your proof?
Person 1: They’re just better ok, now will you shut up?
Person 2: Not until you stop begging the question!
Person 2 (in their mind): God this fucking guy

Loaded questions

Again, asking loaded, re or de-contextualized questions does not exemplify an inability to defend a position I hold.
Hym "Loaded questions, out of context, from people who don't actually want an answer isn't the same as you asking me a question in the context of this things here. You're a piece of shit. Die faster. Die HARDER. Die and then be resuscitated... And then die a second time... Except even harder than the first time."
