The prima donnas on fb whine that they’re mean here, but I think the curmudgeons are part of the fun.
Speaking of, on social media not only will virtually everything you write be misunderstood by someone, but it will be taken in the most negative way possible, and often elicit a strong or even vicious response. And if you write something sarcastic, you are EXPECTED to explicitly label it as *sarcasm*. It has become the norm. If you don’t, for sure some one will not only misread you as serious, but call you out for it.
Maybe we need an official list of frequent asked stupid questions. A “FASQ” file.
Also a bot that that rejects posts with the word “code” and no PXXXX.

I have had 2 HHRs, 06 Sunburst Orange LS 5 Speed (my keeper daily driver), 07 Orange LS AT sunroof, most of the goodies (recently sold to a friend who fell in love). HHR Newbie questions, Where is the battery?, Where are the window switches?, How can I jump it?, Where is the dome light switch?, How do I check the power steering fluid?, What's that light over the dash for?.
I,m sure there are more I haven't heard

Hmm, is that light caused by a problem? If it’s not flashing it’s fine !
My niece lost her engine awhile ago cause she ignored the CEL and had the nerve to try and blame the oil change guy , no she doesn’t bring it here, for oil changes, I don’t give discounts, gift cards or coupons!
her new engine otta be paid off in a couple of years!
I don’t think FB or other sites have as much experience in diagnostic explanations for those who ask questions.
and don’t forget, the only stupid questions are the ones you don’t ask!
