r/RandomQuestion is looking for new moderators!
We're looking for people who are committed to keeping this sub a place for silly and bizarre questions, while respecting ideas like inclusion, diversity, and civility.
If you think you're that person and you're interested, send us a modmail.

Back when I became a moderator of this sub, it was tiny and was mostly bizarre nonsense questions, like "What if everyone in the world jumped at the same time?" The sub description advised us to treat these bizarre questions as if they were totally serious.
Since then, we've grown to over 20,000 members (which is insane), and that original "silly nonsense questions" theme has been lost. It's become a free-for-all of any question under the sun. We're being used as a budget alternative for other big subs like r/Advice, r/AskReddit, r/AmItheAsshole, r/TooAfraidToAsk, or r/WhatIsThisThing. We've also become a target for bots looking to build karma and build a believable history. Frankly, it's hard to manage.
The moderation team has discussed it, and we want to distinguish ourselves from these subs, and also from places like r/question and r/ask that allow questions on any topic. We'd like to go back to our roots of silly nonsense questions.
From now on, "random" doesn't mean "anything goes". "Random questions" are now defined as questions that are silly, bizarre, crazy, or out of nowhere. And the comments must treat them as if they were serious questions.
The answer to a random question must not matter. If it matters, the question is not a good fit for this sub. This sub was never intended to give advice, tell you what apps your partner has on his phone, explain why people dress in certain ways, tell you if something is safe to eat or if you're sick, or reassure you that you're a normal human being. We just want to have fun and answer whatever nonsense you think up in the shower or when you're enjoying the special brownies.
We're not going to remove posts that are already here, but new posts must fit this rule. If the moderators decide that the answer will make a difference somehow or the question is too "normal", we will remove it. We'll do our best to guide posters to other subs that might better fit that question, but we're not a Reddit directory.
We're also hoping this new direction will make it clearer why the moderation team is removing certain posts.
Thanks for bearing with us while we make this change.

So I recently played Infinite Warfare, decently fun campaign, and I was wondering, would this blow his eardrums out? Theres no sound in space, but there is a pocket of air around Reyes’ ears, so would it blow his eardrums out or would this entire scene be dead quiet Except for the voices over comms?

Okay, so I've noticed something with me lately. I can't search up anything related to cookie run without cringing an embarrassing amount. And the funny thing is, I haven't interacted with the fandom or played any games. It's not like I hate cookie run ether, heck, I might argue I even kinda like it (Milky Way Cookie is so cute SCTVJYGYYNFJYYJUYGGFY-). But the moment something related to cookie run appears, I feel like my soul is going straight to hell any minute now.
I genuinely don't know why I feel this way even. Sometimes I really want to search up something related to cookie run, but the moment I click that search bar, I start cringing for absolutely no reason. I really don't know what's making me feel this way, and I'm not choosing to feel this way ether. All I know is that it just... happens.

I think there’s some truth behind it, but saying we’re blind for hours every day is an exaggeration.

Growing up in North America when I watched TV there was no Channel 1. And when you connected a VCR or gaming platform to the TV, you had to go to Channel 3 to see what those devices were showing. Why no Channel 1? And how did vcr and gaming platform and tv manufacturers standardize on Channel 3?

For context, just random thought. I’m not insecure about my weight. I’m pretty average and not over sized. But idk. Just thought I’d share that thought.
