"Wow you tall"

WTF am I supposed to say to that? Maybe it breaks the ice in a conversation but that's about it. Thankfully since I've pretty much stopped growing I don't hear it from relatives any more.

"Is it in yet" >_<
*Applauds*

For me, it's always "Why aren't you going to college?"
Of course they only repeat back that one part. I'm not going to college right after high school, because I'm not in a very good place in my life right now. And if I went right away, I'd most likely end up dropping out soon after due to emotional instability and not being able to cope. Of course I don't like explaining all that over and over again.

After that, it's always "Why are you so smart?"
Seriously, I have to put up with it at least once a year, and it bugs the hell out of me.

I'm gay and you couldn't imagine the crazy things people ask you when you tell them, some are innappropriate: So you like to takeit up the arse then?, So you'd give someone a blowjob if you went on a date with them? and some are just plain weird: So if you had sex with someone then would you be the man or the woman? but the worst of all is when they ask "How do you know you're gay if you've never been with a girl?" to which I just say "How do you know you're straight if you've never been with a guy?"

Mine is 'Where are the eggs?':

Now, this may seem very obscure for a question, but hear me out. I work in retail, so therefore I get asked a lot of questions as to where things are in the store, the most used being eggs. The problem is, when I'm asked where they are, we're normally right beside them, therefore defeating the purpose of needing to ask if the customer had a blind bit of obsevational skill!

Another annoyance, is same question, but when a regular customer comes in, surely by now they should know where the bloody eggs are!

"How can you know you're asexual if you haven't at least tried sex?"

... So how many times have you tried gay sex to determine whether you're gay or not, again? Or, if you're gay: are you sure? Are you really really sure? Shouldn't you try sex with the opposite sex a few times just to know for sure? What, you're not obligated to give it a try? Then why am I?

Of course, I usually can't be quite that snotty to people who ask that. But, sometimes I wish I could.
I'm guessing we both meet a lot of people who seem to think that we should "give a chance" to their sexual orientation while our orientations need no such thing...

Where are you from?

I have a speech impediment, and which apparently makes me sound like I am from another country
Which I am not. It is very annoying. I hate my stupid speech impediment

Why do you play so many video games?
Why do you spend so much time in your room?
Why don't you like football/soccer/basketball?
Why do you play D&D with your friends?

Fuck. Off.

At the moment 'Why don't you have any Christmas stuff left?' Work in retail and after the 10th time I just respond with 'Its January.'

Not so much now, but I used to always get, "What happened there?" when they notice my index finger.
I've lost time how many times I've said, "I was born like it."

And at work I have told the same person 3 times we don't sell cheese straws. I think she's winding me up.

'so why to you act so strange?' I don't act I am strange, so what I enjoy myself.

"Do you listen to metal"?

Because I have rather long hair. I have it because me and my wife like it. Purely for esthetic reasons. But for some this means I must be either a Hippie or deeply into metal.

I always hate it whenever someone finds out that my birthday is around Christmas they always invariably ask me "Do you get more gifts?"
NO! No more than anyone else does, my relatives just save on shipping because they can ship 'em both at the same time. ...well since I became an adult I kinda stopped getting gifts from the extended family, but yeah.

"Are you OK" I know its said with the best of intentions, but its just so annoying.
Exactly. Just because I don't have a stupid grin plastered on my face doesn't mean that someone died today. Forty-something muscles to frown, about twenty to smile, zero to keep a straight face.

On meeting someone new at university

"So what are you studying?"
"Artificial Intelligence"
"What? Like aliens?"

You'd be surprised how many times that has been asked.

"Do you like Dreamgirls?"

Seriously, you'd be staggered how often I get asked this. They see a short, slim, moderately-effeminate homosexual and immediately assume he likes musicals. If it's not Dreamgirls, it's Hairspray, Les Miserables, or some other shit.

I actually do love Dreamgirls, Hairspray and a good few other musicals, but now I just always say "actually no, I love beer and football" out of principle.

Woah, you're only _____?

People love to talk about how I'm younger than them....

How did you get so smart?

I hate, absolutely hate, talking about my intelligence. I think everyone is smart.
I can kill that opinion. Glenn Beck and Bill O'Riley. Still think everyone is smart?
There's being an idiot/asshole and then there's not being smart. I'm sure Beck and O'Riley are reasonably intelligent at least. But that's not really the smart I'm talking about. I think there's a billion different kinds of smart.

"Did your piercings hurt when you got them done?"

To which I reply: "Let me stick a massive needle through your lip and you can tell me yourself."

Although in all honestly, it was only the first one that hurt..the 2nd time they used a much better anaesthetic ^.^
