Default preflop blind play

My blind play really sucks, esp preflop. Whats my line in these hands.

Hand 1 - mp is laggish, mp seems ok, co laggish, all from 60 hands.

I have AQo in the bb, UTG bets, mp calls, co calls, button folds, sb calls, hero?

hand 2 - CO/bb is laggy from 60 hands.

i have ATo in the sb and co open raises.

hand 3 - UTG is very tight/passive 16/7.5 from 70 hands. BB is laggy.

I have KQo in the sb, UTG raises, folded to me.

Hand 4 - all are lags.

I have QJs in the sb, mp limps, co limps, button limps.

Did you mean UTG raises in hand 1? If so just call. Hand 2 is an easy 3-bet. Hand 3, fold. Hand 4 raise.

yes, hand one UTG raises. Why do you call in hand 1? Hand 2/3 seems easy to me. Hand 4 why raise?

Hand 1: AQo has an equity edge against this many limpers, so raise.

Hand 2: I'm 3-betting almost anyone with this hand. The fact that he's laggy makes it a no-brainer. (I assume button folds.)

Hand 3: Since BB is most likely coming along for the ride, I think I'll call and see a flop, evaluate from there.

Hand 4: A raise accomplishes nothing against LAGs. Limp and hope for a good multiway flop.

I didnt mean to come across as rude and hope i didnt, but your reply suggests i did. Was just asking for an explaination rather than just raise/call/fold.
