Mildly unrelated, but there should be a nice and polite in-person variation of RTFM. It is certainly annoying when certain questions are asked but they are just a google away.
Indeed. But the worst thing someone can do is leave a comment like that on Stack Overflow. Invariably, SO shows up at the top of google's search, so later people with the same question will read that and say "duh- that's how I got here."
