Before you say "ask me anything," you should really mean anything.

That's one of the many life lessons Reddit has taught us. The online community and self-proclaimed "front page of the Internet" has created a popular series called "Ask Me Anything," a Q&A format hosted by celebrities, activists, regular citizens with interesting stories and more.

Users of the site are invited to engage with AMA hosts, but sometimes things don't go so well. The AMA format is a demanding, open forum and questions will truly run the gamut. If you aren't willing to answer a bevy of random queries thoughtfully, you aren't going to do well. Bad Reddit AMAs have even been the topic of a thread on the site itself, where users gripe about the worst Q&A sessions in the site's history.

Whether it's a famous actor dodging questions or a rocker getting trolled, here are seven of the best worst Reddit AMAs of all time.

Trolls were out in full force when Stapp, the solo artist and lead singer of Creed, decided to host an AMA on March 19. Creed, much like Nickelback, is popular sneering material for web users and music lovers, and Stapp was shown no mercy.

Users asked uncomfortable questions about the alleged fight he had with members of band 311, how he feels about Nickelback and if he could take them higher.

The ultraconservative frontwoman came out swinging in her AMA. Despite her legions of conservative fans, the AMA community who greeted Coulter was made up of left-wingers who were less than fond of her politics. She fought fire with fire, answering vitriolic questions with vitriolic responses.

Many users called her out on her controversial statements, such as when she said that women shouldn't vote, her slur toward Barack Obama and her stance on gay marriage. It was a relentless AMA war that left both sides a little blue in the face.

On the opposite end of the AMA spectrum is Rachel Maddow. The MSNBC anchor answered few (of the many) political questions in her AMA, which confused and angered most commenters, considering her job as journalist and political commentator. It was so poorly received that MSNBC reps had to release a statement defending the TV anchor.

The commanding, gravelly voice of actor Morgan Freeman doesn't translate very well on the Internet. To promote his 2013 film Oblivion, Freeman turned to the web Q&A as a means to engage with fans. Instead, his answers to the numerous questions he received were short and dry, causing most commenters to think it was somehow an elaborate hoax, with someone pretending to be the actor.

Conspiracies ran so high that one of Reddit's managers had to do an AMA about Freeman's AMA and explain exactly what went down. Long story short: Freeman's team was handling the AMA and said all of the answers came straight from the actor — no canned statements, no impersonator.

The Reddit community was not pleased with Chopra's high-flying, esoteric AMA. The mantra-spouting, philosophy-touting guru had a way of saying a lot of nothing, going off on wordy tangents rather than answering the actual questions posed to him.

How's this for bad luck? In January, the tech giant decided to host an AMA with members of its Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team. However, the AMA started around the same time that Gmail and other Google services went down. Yikes.

Commenters quickly seized the opportunity to freak out about the email blackout, turning the AMA into a messy soundboard for complaining and trolling.

This is the Reddit AMA to end all Reddit AMAs. The Oscar-nominated actor was promoting his 2011 flick Rampart and decided an AMA would make for great publicity. Bad idea. Harrelson (or his PR team) didn't seem to understand that when you host an AMA, you are technically agreeing to answer questions about literally anything. Whenever someone would ask about Harrelson's life or about any subject other than Rampart, he would brusquely change topics and ask everyone to "focus on the film."

The backlash was swift, with commenters deeming Harrelson as a diva who was probably letting his PR team answer questions for him. In Reddit lore, Harrelson's AMA goes down in history as the worst of all time.
