Even though this Orange-dude is a confused soul, you still managed to prove his point.
Ok - but lets consider that request in context.

1) You ask me for directions the following way. "Hey dickhead - where is the cinema". Which is the equivalent of both the OP original thread and many of the "This sucks" threads.

2) You ask me for directions to the cinema while I am standing right next to a city map. Then demand I read the map for you and tell you where to go rather than reading it yourself. Which is the same as demanding a noob guide to xterm here etc while there are many already available on the net.
