Some times when I cook something, someone will say are you going to eat that.
I learned to stop saying, no, I laid it out for you, because I knew you would want it.
Their reaction. I hear thanks, and munch, munch, munch.
I learned to say there is more over there help your self. | |

He touches on these types of faux pas.
Parked on the side of the rode, with a flat tire.
Some guy comes along and asks "Get a flat?"
"Nope, I was driving along and the other 3 just blew up!"
Here's your sign.

Posted: 6/30/2007 7:45:21 PM | When I was 14 I met the love of my life....at 19 we moved in together......and one night he said that I was the kinda person who saw with her heart instead of her eyes and that he was afraid that someday I would see with my eyes and see what he really looked like and not want him anymore.....
I told him that was the stupidest thing I'd ever heard.....he was the most beautiful man I have ever known.....ever.....he was in fact the only man I have ever known!
To this day I still think about him saying that.
After he was killed in 1999......I didnt think I could ever find someone to match him....and so I decided here recently to just look for someone else....hopefully with the same kinda heart anyways

Posted: 8/27/2007 8:21:18 PM | I beg to differ that there are no dumb questions. The following are things I've been asked:
A woman at my office (40 something w/kids) asked if my having a hysterectomy meant I couldn't have kids. Duh?
Another woman at my office asked (while I was sitting down) how come I looked so tall? Before I could tell her it was because I readjusted my chair -- she asked, "are you wearing heels"? Duh? I'm sitting down!

Posted: 8/27/2007 8:36:46 PM | My all time favorite dumb question came from a friend who had six kids. We had a mutual friend who was having corrective surgery to her female parts because she was unable to have an orgasm. After having two kids, having been married for five years to a wonderful man, the doctor finally figure out it was a physical problem that could be corrected. She and I explained to our friend with six kids that she was having the surgery and why, our friend got this blank look on her face and said, "Then how did she have kids? "

When someone comes into our shop and they're not familiar with the customs laws I have to inform them that they have to have an international boarding pass to buy the liquor and cigarettes because they're duty free
Then they ask if they can just pay the tax. Would I have told them they couldn't buy it if that was the case? | |

My all time favorite dumb question came from a friend who had six kids. That reminds me of something I heard years ago. While this might not quite fit the dumb question criteria, it does fit dumb, and I mean really dumb things said. Remember when it was party time at your friend's house when their parents were gone? This happened once when I/we (The guys I hung out with) were a teenager/virgin/raging hormones/horny and clueless in so many things about sex and women.
So, we're planning this party around the time frame when we'll have free reign when my buddy Bob says we need to set the date real soon, like really soon. "Why do we need to set the date now" I asked him? His response, "Because it's getting close to the 28th of the month." | |

Posted: 10/12/2007 8:16:25 PM | A few years ago I was sitting in my favourite fast food restaurant enjoying my lunch before heading off to work in my then-favourite coffee shop. I was wearing my uniform, clearly marked with the logo of the chain I worked for at the time, when a man walked over and asked me if I worked at _____. I just sat there looking at him blankly but felt like saying, "No sir. I just get my jollies wearing the tacky uniform of Canada's favourite coffee shop! Why would you ask such a stupid question?"

Not necessarily. Your friend may have thought you worked there and is putting on price tags.  | |

Posted: 10/12/2007 11:44:03 PM | In the early sixties there was a song called "Tossing and Turning." The lyrics started out...
"I couldn't sleep at all last night
Just thinking about you.."
I was (sort of) singing that under my breath one day at work and a fellow nearby turned with a strange look on his face and said, "Me? Why were you thinking about me?"
And here is a dumb question from me. It is mid October - why are people using the Christmas smilies now? | |

Posted: 10/13/2007 7:33:12 PM | Any fool, any time, while talking to a clerk in any store..."Why are your prices so high?" "Well, duh....someone has to pay for the huge paycheque I have to lug home every week!" Total knobs.
Or while holding my kids hand..."Oh...is that your little one?" "No...it's just another kidnap victim...I'm making a collection of them!"
When answering the door.."Do you live here?" "No...the owners are buried in the basement and I'm taking over their identies with some friends."
"Will it fit"? "Hehehe.....oh yeah.....hehehe!"
Sure...we all get some odd questions....and may toss out a smartazz reply. | |

Posted: 10/13/2007 7:44:43 PM | | I don't have children and have never been married. I have lost count of the number of times someone has responded rudely when told those two facts. More than once someone has asked me, "Oh. What's the matter? Don't you like men?, " or something along that same track of thought. | |

Edge of road, watching small town parade.
Woman moves and stands in front of me.
I say "excuse me, I can't see".
She says to me... "well why don't you just stand up, then?!"

Posted: 10/13/2007 9:06:12 PM | My 24 year-old sister - who I’ve known for my entire life - one day asks me:
“How do you spell Matthew?”
My response:
“Sorry? Did you just ask me how to spell my name?!”
It’s scary to think that she works in a junior school.
Another time, at college my friend points to a section of a map of the world and asks me:
“Is that America?”
What was the problem?
He was pointing to Europe.
He argued my correction of his geography even after I pointed out – his home - the United Kingdom to him! The fool took European Studies for an entire year at school – what the hell happened?! | |
