And the stupid question award goes to.......

[Fightgarr]

Now I this doesn't qualify as a question but I think it belongs here because its one of the stupidest and most ignorant things I'd ever heard someone say. I was riding on the bus (about 3 years ago) when I heard a girl a couple years older than me utter this:
AIDS doesn't exist. They just made it up so they could test us on it in health class. I mean have you ever met anyone with AIDS? No! It doesn't exist.
I hope through karmic backlash that she gets some nasty STDs through that conclusion

I was once asked where London was on a map of Dublin.
It took my dumbfounded brain a few minutes to even begin to formulate an answer.

Was it a map of Ireland or a map of just the city?

It doesn't make them not stupid if it was a map of Ireland, but they might have thought it was A) All of Britain, or B) England

Just Dublin.

I used to work at an ice cream and cookie store (TCBY/Mrs. Fields). I used to get gems like:

"What kind of nuts are in the butter pecan ice cream?"

"What time does the 10 o'clock special start?"

"If I have a peanut allergy, can I still eat a peanut butter cookie?"

"Ya'll got fries?"


I hate malls.

"Abortion is officially considered murder by the government" Abortion is legal in the US. I said: "If it was considered murder, then it would be illegal dumbass" He got real quiet after that.

Me: "Who do you think is going to win the world cup in 2010?"
Friend(Who claims to know a lot about football/soccer): "Ohhhh, probably AC Milan."
Me: *laughs*.

this isnt a question but someone i knew thought london was in paris

You sir need to keep your 666 post count forever.

Also why does everyone think London is in every other European city? The only city (though it's technically a country) inside a city is the Vatican to the best of my knowledge

My sisters friend once asked if sun chips grow in the sun. She was 14.

I was working in a grocery, placing eggs when a friendly old laddy ask me with a nice smile:

''Does the hens lays they eggs with the expiration dates on them?''

I never knew if she was serious or joking...

Once, in middle school, a teacher was talking about how the signs that are similar to the Nazi Swastika outside certain Asian temples incurred the wrath of many people.
At this point, a girl promptly asked, "What's wrong with that symbol?"

 

[Eldritch Warlord]

Relative: "What's that."
Me: "A Zune."
Relative: "Is it an iPod?"
Me: ". . . no, it's a Zune."

 

[ElephantGuts]

And I quote... "What's the name of Mexico's moon?"

-Supposedly some girl in my school. I forget who but undoubtedly a stupid one. Supposedly.

My chem class before a test...

Teacher: Okay, so there will be 60 questions, each worth one point, and it will be out of 40.
Student: So if I get 50 out of 60, then I'll get over a hundred?
Teacher: But you're not going to get 50 out of 60.
Student: (Gets up and walks out of th class while everyone is laughing their asses off.)

That actually sounds like something my Science teacher would have done to someone. Supposing the someone was stupid or didn't do any work that is.

Do you have change for a five?

NO! I do not have change for a five because no one in their right mind actually carries around five singles!

 

[Ridonculous_Ninja]

Someone asked me for change, but I mistook his question for a challenge to shoot him in the face and did so promptly.

0.0

*Makes note to self never to ask you for change*

 

[Dorian]

*Jaw hits floor hard enough to break my toes* I do believe that we need to kill these people for the good of the universe, or else some hellish demon army shall do it for us. I can't compete with the stupidity the likes of which I just read, but I shall put in my fair share of brain-bane.

A certain girl which I regretfully have blood relations with once asked "Can I borrow your internet for a while?"

Different girl, MUCH more blond. "Chicken nuggets come from cows, right?" Cue the /facepalm.

Oh, my, god... wait, i have a question:
hamburgers come from pigs, RIHGT?

 

[MagnetoHydroDynamics]

I usually hear a lot of stuid IT-illiterate things...

Not as much stupid as something that could be quoted out of an Anime:
Girl 1 (trying to sound impressive): "Did you know that camels can survive on water and cardboard boxes?"
Girl 2 (thoughtful): "Where in the world does it get all of those cardboard boxes..."

One of my classmates in my chemistry class asked if it was possible to drink hydrochloric acid *face-palm*

to which my teacher replied: "yeh you can drink it, it'll kill you but you can drink it"

"How do you make that backwards b?"

The stuff of legends.

I heard of that, it truly is the stuff of legends. There were some people, strangely enough, trying to defend that person on some website I saw.

defend the person? it was simple pants on head retardation, honestly I don't know why 4chan hasn't been corrupted by the mass stupidity.
