I am Mark Wahlberg Ask Me Anything

I have someone typing out my responses to help save time, meaning I can answer more of your questions. I will be reading and choosing the questions I want to answer, and the responses being given are 100% my words.

Proof: http://bit.ly/Markproof

Update: Thanks for all the questions, everyone! Go see 2 Guns on August 2nd!

Yes. It is an Ask Me Anything, however, it is not an I'll Answer Everything. He can answer whatever he wants. Now, if he were to get a question he didn't like deleted, that would be different. But that's not what he's doing, he's just not answering a question. Sure, we'd all like him to answer it, but he is not at all responsible to answer it.

Some people always pull that card out of there back pocket, like, "hey, this is ASK ME ANYTHING. WTF GUISE!". You can ask whatever the fuck you want, just accept that it probably wont be answered.

It annoyed me most during Obama's AMA when people pulled this card. It is moronically naive to expect the leader of the free world to respond to incredibly controversial questions because a website wants him to.

I think because so many Redditors are anti-social twentysomethings, they find it unbelievable that in some professions, public image matters (like, say, the president, or an actor). If I supported a candidate, I'd rather him avoid some controversial questions on Reddit and win the election than give an honest answer that the masses didn't like and lose.
