Answer "yes" to non-yes-no questions?
Good morning,
Lately, especially on the internet and especially in comments on YouTube of Deichkind videos, I've seen the following question: How many costumes do you need for the video? Deichkind: Yes
This is just an example of someone answering a question with yes, even though it's not a yes-no question. As I said, I've read it a lot and find it really funny, so I'm wondering if some kind of trend has slipped past me? Where does this come from? I'd be interested to know. 🙂
PS: Don't answer with yes now… 😉 😀

Yes, I noticed this for the first time in a review for the millionth Fast and Furios.
How much action do you want in the movie?
Yes!
But I immediately noticed that there’s a current gag in there.
Of course, I (old) applied it immediately. ( desperate attempt to look young.)
Of course, the answering person is stupid, but there’s the joke. (Although – it is usually put in the mouth of a person in a fictitious conversation.)
Jo is a trend. That means in your example that the person needs a lot of costumes.

is a trend
An answer that shows why the Pisa study has been so miserable. Brain switching on is impossible.
I think you didn’t quite meet or understand the core of the question. 😉
If you mean
Missing with the No before the answer I thought that the sentence clearly expressed it.
So it’s not a trend
