Shoutout to the people who ask 'how do I start' without reading the community description

I keep seeing posts here that are just 'how do I start' for things like gardening or car repair, but this is the Ask Anything community. The whole point is you can ask about anything, not just one topic. I saw one yesterday asking for beginner knitting tips that got no replies because it was in the wrong place. Has anyone else noticed this and gotten annoyed?

Totally agree about the misplaced posts, it drives me nuts. It's like people don't even glance at the subreddit name before they post. Makes you wonder if they'd just type their question into the main search bar instead.

My grocery store has the same problem with misplaced items.

Hang on, your grocery store has misplaced items too? Like, seriously? I've seen carts in the freezer aisle at my local place, and once someone left a bag of potting soil next to the organic yogurt. It's like a scavenger hunt every time I shop there now.
