What are questions you are sick of people asking?

[hotacidbath]

I'm a zookeeper so I get plenty.
"Where do they poop?"
"How do they make babies?"
"Why isn't it doing anything? Make it do something!"
And my absolute favorite to hear while I'm inside an exhibit, "what's that funny looking animal?" Yeah buddy, I haven't heard that gut buster before. You're the first genius to make the zookeeper/animal joke. If you ever want to piss off a zookeeper, bang on the glass to get their attention and then pull out that snappy one-liner. We never get tired of it. If they're obviously struggling to clean or holding something heavy, you get an added bonus.

Do you have a girlfriend? Why not?



...Guilt is a *****, isn't it?

It's even shittier when you're a girl being asked why you're single. Apparently we're just not allowed to be...It's against the law or something.

If I had to pick one question, it would be "Is your name short for Candice?" No, you freaking tossers...If my name was Candice, I would introduce myself as Candice. It's just Candi. /end rant

Why are you playing as a girl?

Maybe because it's crucial to the story... Dumbass...

"Are you going to buy MW3/BF3? Why didn't you buy the new DLC?"
Me: "Because I refuse to give Activision any more of my money! I already bought Black Ops, so get off my back!"

How old are you?
What are you?
Why are you single?
What do I have to do to get you?

So, i get question 1/3/4, in the context of you being a girl on the internet...which we all know means you get hit on by anyone who...well, anyone ;o)

But "What are you?"...
I mean what kind of question is that? And what the hell are you supposed to answer to that?

I myself would go with "Why are you dying your hair blonde?"
Apparently it's not socially acceptable that males past their 20s do that. It's for some reason worse if it's blonde, black is fine since "the chicks like dark types".
Whatever

"Why do people call you Sasha if you're a guy?"

"...I've explained this a million times. I'm from Ukraine. There, Alexander can be shortened to various other names, including Sasha, which is a unisex name there. Now fuck off."

i regularly go to my local skatepark.
when im there there are afew little kids about 7 - 10 years old, and over the course of me being there they each ask me what type of bike have i got. I've had to explain ive got a Stereo Plug-In about a million and one times.
SICK OF IT.

Are you Australian? When I visit the US, this is a distressingly frequent question.
Seriously, we sound nothing alike (I'm from London).

 

[thenumberthirteen]

"How's the job hunt going?" Basically my entire family ask me that when I see them. It gets on my nerves as it's not going anywhere. The thing is they say it to start conversation, and it leads to loads of "advice" about jobs. I GET IT! You have a job, and I don't (actually I do have a job, but it's, apparently, not good enough) stop going on about it!

 

[Mute52]

Were you born from Alaska and/or Mexico?

No i just lived there, no i'm not an eskimo. And they're called Inuit if you want to be politically correct anyway

 

[Gustavo S. Buschle]

What do you want? What do you think? And all of the questions that sound like them.

 

[JochemDude]

Does it hurt?
No I'm screaming in agony because it's funny dipshit.

 

[ramox]

I normally response to #2 as human.

Well that the obvious answer i guess anyone would give. What i'm curious about is, what kind of answer is someone expecting when he asks that (now ignoring the "hitting on" thing since i don't see the connection there)?
I can't for the life of me find a reasonable explanation why anyone would ask this question.

Maybe anyone else can elaborate? Since Lola here doesn't seem to be the only one here getting that question.

 

[JochemDude]

Ofcourse the one I used to hear a lot on weddings, all those uncles and aunts. When are you gonna marry boy?
I once asked those guys on a funeral, when are you gonna die old man?
Now I don't have to go to family bullshit anymore.

 

[EternalFacepalm]

"ASL???"
Seriously, it's annoying.

top 3
1: "are you gay?"
2: "how can you drink so much?"
3: "why do you need a seven string guitar?"

 

[JochemDude]

The infamous relative or friend coming to you expecting you to fix whatever is broken and saying 'It don't work' Next time I hear that one he will 'don't work' anymore.

 

[Rekrul]

I work with autistic kids, so, any question along the line of: are they really smart, are they like rainman, are any of them really talented. No they are kids with a learning disability and often have other learning disabilities, and even if they were like rainman they aren't 18 they aren't allowed in casinos!!

Also when asked what I'm thinking, the answer is either nothing or what I would do if...[insert random senario, zombies, vampires, winning the lottery, life turns into an actual rpg game], and if I told you that you'd think I'm weird

 

[Sarahcidal]

"Why don't you have a soul?"
"Are your pubes ginger too?"
"Why don't you get a haircut?/Dye your hair?"
"Why are you holding a knife?"
"Why did you stab me?"
"Why are the police taking so long to get here?"

XD that made me LOL


Me: "Ugh.. I dont feel very well today"
Everyone else: "maybe you're pregnant??"
Me: "maybe.. here's a hypothetical.. are you opposed to being punched in the throat?"


Everyone: "so.. I know you keep saying you don't want kids... but seriously, when are you having kids???"
Me: "Never. I hate kids. I have been with my husband for going on 9 years now.....
we. are. never. breeding."


*upon discovering my distaste for cake*
"Wait.. you hate CAKE??! What is WRONG with you??! How the hell can you hate CAKE??!"
of course fellow Escapists you'll join me in my common response to this question;
"Because it's a lie."
