The striking thing for me was to Google a few questions in a row, to find good answers on SO, and then to see that each one was also closed/rejected for some reason. It was strange to see that the answers to these questions all had high ratings, but the question was closed anyway.

I guess it's a vision opposite of the internet itself. Rather than "find one of a million pages that work for me" it is "there should only be one."

(In the spirit of the internet, perhaps if a question cannot be found by a simple search on SO, that IS a reason to ask again, and to fill the search slot.)
