When people realise BOTH my parents are GPs (general practitioners, not global positioning systems)

"Oh! are you going to be a GP too?"

No thanks, I've seen what that line of work does to people. Very sad....

And the comment that is always reeled out after a few seconds awkward silence whenit's blurted out that I'm 15 or that i skipped a year:

"Wow, you must be really smart."

How the hell are you meant to answer that?

It used to be "How tall are you, really?", nowadays it's "What are you going to do after you graduate from high school?"

I don't mind answering them, but it's rare that people ask me anything else, so I've grown tired of it.

So why don't you dress more girly?

Seriously hate this question now. Yes I'm a girl. No I'm not a lesbian. I don't like dresses, skirts or make-up therefore I do not wear them. What's wrong with my jeans and t-shirt? Terribly sorry I'm a tomboy and don't fit into how your view of a girl should be. I dress like this because it's comfortable and I like it. Why else would I wear it?
Tell them your undercover as a Boy.
I should try that! Shame the boobs would give it away...

When/if you get to college/university it'll be "So, what is your major?" It's a decent (if kind of bland) conversation starter.

Why don't you play football (American)?
Because I believe hockey is infinitely superior.
Do you figure skate?
No. Hockey is different.
Why do you think it's okay to sit on a bench with a bunch of guys for a (insert period of time) and slide around with them on the ice? (I have been asked that by a SEVERELY homophobic idiot)
Have you ever seen a hockey game? Compare that to the ass-tapping in football or short shorts of basketball. (Disclaimer: I'm fine with homosexuals and have homosexual friends)
Why are you so smart?
Because I actually study. Shocker, I know.
You know gaming causes violence/destroy your life?
Really? Your still asking me this? There is no evidence that a person with a normal mind has committed violence because of their hobby. And I still have a life.
Where did you get your accent from? Are you British?
I was born in Indiana (have a bit of a northern accent as compared to the dialect of the south) and have a speech impediment. When I say the last bit (this annoys me) people gasp like I announced I have the plague.
This is only the first few that came to mind, but they still annoy me.

The last one is when two girls ask you to chose a characteristics about them that you prefer, such a "whose boots do you think are better?" Because I always give them a strait forward answer and I get shit for choosing one over the other.
I utterly detest this one - pretty much learned the best solution is to ask another friend what they think then sneak away

Actually got bitched at by a friend earlier today about "should I keep my hair brunette or keep it this blonde?" and replying that "it's fine just leave it" - got a bitching for saying only "fine"...

"Why Are You so tall?" To which I respond "Im more evolved than you, now leave me alone you neanderthal". Im actually only 6'3. Judging from other people who get asked this question on here, thats not that tall. My neigbour is about 6'8, so he makes me feel small.

"Why would People drink to get drunk?" Frequently asked by my parents. Its because beer is terrible, so is wine. The only reason to consume them is to get drunk so you can either have more fun or forget about your troubles.

"Why do you buy games"

It's just so... dumb
Just reply with "sexual thrills". Thats what I do when people ask me "Why did you buy x"

And then of course, there's self-concious straight guys asking me if I'd do them. This one isn't SO bad, but it's their responses when I say 'no' that annoy me. If they can't take me theoretically shooting them down, WHY did they ask? And they're straight, what do they care if a gay guy doesn't want to ride them!? Fuckers...

adding more:
"When did you choose you were gay?"
"So do you think that guy's hot?" *points to random dude*
People seem to have the oddest misconception that gay guys are completely desperate and would fuck any other gay guy.

then your going to have to think of something witty to say. Their next question is either going to be something about your boobs or voice. It's going to be one of those two.

Mine would have to be:

"Don't you have to not wash your hair to get dreadlocks?" The answer is no, because my hair is naturally fine it means I had to have it backcombed and it takes regular washing and maintenance to keep them.
The other is "What does your nickname mean?" to which I have to say, whatever your thinking, its wrong.

"Do you ever talk?"

I got that a lot in High School, from people I didn't even know. We haven't spoken because we've never met?

For the record no, no I don't.

Since I'm a guy with long hair, I often get asked: "Why do you have long hair?"
My answer: Because I can.

Unfortunately that answer doesn't always seem to satisfy the questioner, even though it is the truth.

"Do you play sports?" This is usually asked while i'm talking about videogames. People also seem to think that because of my large frame (I've been compared to a gorilla.) I am violent...this pisses me off to no end because, frankly, outside the virtual world I couldn't hurt a fly.

"Has the bus come yet?"

People ask me that when I'm still standing there waiting for the bus.

I don't like that.
The bus stop near me has 3 different buses stop at it. Each goes in a different direction after a few streets. It's a perfectly reasonable question under certain circumstances.

So what is that one question that everytime you meet someone new etc they always have to ask you, that really annoys you?

For me it's "Do you manicure your nails?" - my nails are naturally bright white when they get longer and everyone always asks me this.

Also little less common is "did you straighten your hair?" - I always get asked this if I shower before going out since it makes my hair look different and I always frown on guys using straighteners to get "that look" they love so much

And imagine both of them being asked in judging tones
I get asked if my nails are manicured or false just because they're shiny, smooth and extremely long.
People ask if I straighten my hair, and disbelieve me when I tell them truthfully that NO! I do not. My hair is PERFECTLY straight, and NEVER in my life have I used straighteners. Even using curlers to style my for special occasions results in the curls coming out almost instantly because my hair refuses to curl unless its been plated.
