dumbest question

[Fuloqwam]

I bought a dozen doughnuts for my office. The cashier asked "to have in or to go?"

I said. "I think I'm gonna sit down and eat these 12 doughnuts right here, thanks!"

 

[CobraX]

so as the title says whats the dumbest question someone has ever asked you

Once this one guy asked what the dumbest question.....

Just Kidding

 

[nelsonr100]

A friend of mine did not know who Admiral Nelson, Chairman Mao or Stalin was. She also did not know what the Berlin wall was, and when forced to guess, said it was another name for the great wall of china.

I was asked "Did the bus come" while waiting for the bus.

If it came, would I still be standing here?

Maybe other buses went through?

The dumbest question someone has ever asked me was and always will be.
Who's Hitler? And she was serious.

 

[Dr. wonderful]

"Isn't "Animu" for kids?"


My answer?

Like hell it is [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/TroperTales/AnimationAgeGhetto]

One of my friends who is 17 repeatedly asks questions that lead us to believe there is something wrong with her.

"Where's the bathroom?" Even though she was looking at the bathroom door.
"Who's Hitler?" Naturally asked right after we got out of history class.

And of course one of my favorites.
Her: "Can you give me a ride home?"
ME: "I guess, where do you live?"
Her: "... I don't know, I thought you would know. Don't you?"

Yeah, made for a fun afternoon.

You should have drove her to an airport.

Lol, OP anyone from the US probably wouldn't know.

Seriously?

I haven't had many dumb questions thrown at me, but a guy on my bus once asked if iPod Touch pixels were smaller than TV pixels.
Yeesh.

Girl: Is Asia in China?
Me: Well Asia is a continent and China is a country.
Girl: So is that a yes?

This was in high school geography.

Also, I find it REALLY annoying when I get seriously injured and people say "Are you OK?"
Heres a clue, if I am bleeding profusely and/or jumping up and down saying "AAAHHHHH J***S F*****G C****T THAT HURT!!" then I am NOT OK.

How do 'jesus' and 'christ' qualify as expletives? I'm confused D:

 

[blackbobcat]

well im in the navy and a girl once asked me "how does the ship move if it does not have powerlines or sails".........

i told her we used dolphins

 

[Mockingjay]

'Is England part of America?'

Universal face/palming occurred.

I got a question:
What would happen if pinokio said "My nose will grow now"?
He is neither telling the truth nor telling a lair.

 

[Guffe]

My friend was a little bit drunk when he asked this:

"where the hell are my pants"

"everyone starts laughing like hell, until someone points out he's wearing them on his head"

 

[Keepitclean]

I'm a firm believer in that it's better to ask stupid questions that put up with stupid mistakes. That said my cousin once asked me "What happens next?", in the middle of a movie.

I got a question:
What would happen if pinokio said "My nose will grow now"?
He is neither telling the truth nor telling a lair.

My guess is you would get an oscillating system.
His nose would grow, shrink again and then back and forth.

 

[wfpdk]

"where lighters made before matches?"
my reply was "to quote dave chappelle; 'you have smoked yourself retarded.'"

 

[El_Glovenator]

"Whats a snail?, is it a type of cheese?"

 

[BoxCutter]

"Toronto is in Illinois right?"

 

[Hyzenthlay]

Once a lady asked me-"Do you think this book will have sex in it?" (The book was called 'Sex and the Single Vampire')
I said- "I believe it does have quite a bit of sex in it."
Her reply- "So...would it be suitable for my 9 and a half year old daughter?"

 

[Trippy Turtle]

when i lost my bag at school on the first day my sister says "just tell me where it is already!"

i just stared at her

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

I remember this girl in my year 9 geography class, who was the classic stereotypical female airhead. So just to for something to do while the teacher went to get something he just gave us a piece of paper with an outline of Australia and asked us to fill in as much detail as we could. She put Tasmania as the capitol of Victoria and then asked why we where all laughing at her.

"Lol, OP anyone from the US probably wouldn't know."

Yeah, and pray tell what intellectual wonderland it is that you hail from. I'd like to know which nation is so overrun with mind blowing titans of acumen, that they can spare such a cogitative colossus like yourself the necessary time to come into online forums and arrogantly insult the intelligence of over 300 million people. I would have assumed that utilizing your unassailable mental prowess to save the world from morons like those of us who live in the United States would occupy far to much of your time to allow for such well informed and no doubt greatly appreciated social discourse as that which you have brought to this table.

How is that an insult?
It's not unreasonable to not know much about Australia if you don't live there.

So it is safe to assume by that logic that Australians don't know where New York City is?
