Some of the questions make sense ("Find me the best restaurant for steak in Tampa") but some are just nonsensical. If you read them out loud, sometimes it seems like the person was asking the question to an Alexa-like device and the device got the interpretation wrong ("What are the best dog reads in a girl" probably means "What are the best dog breeds in the world"). I'm not answering the ones that I think I can "translate" but that's what I think is going on with the ones that are all nonsense.

i still don't get it. i see places we're apparently supposed to provide answers to something with a phrase at the top of the hit.

Right. Whoever was asking the "question" in that case didn't understand the formatting so the user portion doesn't match the provided question starting portion.
