Not very often since I enjoy explaining things. Hell, I might even google it up for you.
I generally just shout, "TO THE GOOGLE MACHINE!"
And I do that approximately 3-5 times a day.

Why do I need some fancy new toy like Google? AOL has me covered.

With COVID-19 making its impact on our lives, I have decided that I shall hang in there for my remaining days, skip some meals, try to get children to experiment with making henna patterns on their skin, and plant some trees. You know -- live, fast, dye young, and leave a pretty copse. I feel like I may not have that quite right.
Only if I don't know the answer. I'll never tell someone to google something out of laziness to take a few seconds out of my day to explain something.
What's inconsiderate is constantly burdening others with one's ignorance and demanding we crowd-source an answer for them. I find it odd how many people have now had the internet beside them for most, if not their entire lives and still struggle to find basic information upon it by themselves.
Yeah it can be easy to just give them an answer but hey it's even easier for them to type the exact same question into a search box and get an instant, troll-free answer, no?
I mean generally people like to socialize and asking questions and receiving answers is one form of that. The problem is you're approaching the situation all wrong and getting annoyed at "ignorance" when it's a teaching opportunity and that's an amazing thing to have for the person inquiring and the teacher.
I say it all the time. Like anytime someone asks a question I will say some variation like "Lets google it" or "I'll google it" or "You should google it"
