Never underestimate the stupidity of the public.

I have had people phone me to ask me my address (The only place that the phone number is displayed is beside the address)
I have had people send emails to a "donotreply" address.
When telling people that sending an email to a special address would automatically register them for a newsletter they email that address to say "no thank you".
As editor of a music magazine I have lost count of the number of times that I am sent gig listings missing such useful trivia as the date or the venue.

Of course a lot of people aks the "stupid" question in the hope of getting a different answer to the one in the FAQ.

A friend of mine, working as a bouncer, once came up with the classic response to a customer at a sell out gig - "which part of the word FULL don't you understand sir?"
