You asked it to tease us, but it can't be a bad question because it brings up a whole series of thoughts about logic. For example, think of the statement, "This statement is false." Is it true or false? There are a lot of puzzles that ask you to find out something in a place where some natives always lie and others tell the truth, or variations of this idea. Over 100 years ago Bertrand Russel shook up the mathematical set theory people by demonstrating that a certain set, that of all sets that are not members of themselves, is impossible.

So, "Why is this a bad question?" Good question. Or with a different spin, the question could be "Why? Is this a bad question?" To which the answer is: No, not at all.
