@Aerovistae It's happened more than once.

@Aerovistae In extremis, you can ask the mods to disassociate that question from your account. They don't like doing it (indeed, I think they can't do it themselves, and have to call in the community managers), but if you really can't stand the sight of it, they would do it for you. Consider this possibility, and maybe flag the question and ask them.

nah

it's not that i'm ashamed of it

just that it isn't a useful question in any way, and thus nor are the answers of utility to anyone

yet it has such a generic title that it comes up in searches a lot and thus has accrued 10k views

just a giant waste of people's time
