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

[live4him4eva]

"Do black people have different colored blood?"

This girl, I swear, has asked more stupid questions than there are in this thread. I wish I remembered them, I have no clue how she made it to sophomore year of high school. (And to think she's a senior now!!)

 

[LooK iTz Jinjo]

Oh I have a new 1. Ok picture this. It's 2 Am and I'm playing Gears of War online. Dad comes up stairs.
"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!"
"Ah. What does it look like?"

I'm guessing he was drunk as usual, funny thing was, little to his knowledge, I was too

 

[Bob Saget]

Ah, I got another one. I overheard some dumb ditsy chick on my bus ask, "Why is it illegal to smoke on airplanes?? It's so stupid and useless! It's not like it's going to do anything bad or anything." I hope she and all the other idiots on that bus (about 60% of them) die. In a fire. A hot one. In the pits of hell.

Standing on the side of the road, next to my Camaro, with a BLOWN TIRE, a highway patrol pulls up, gets out, looks at my tire and asks, "Got a flat tire?"

*facepalm*

At the Canadian border, crossing into Canada, the border patrol agent asks, "Where ya headed?" To which I respond, "Alaska, same as every year. I see you still work at the same station. We are commercial fisherman, remember?" Then he replies... wait for it.. wait for it.. "So what are you doing in Alaska?"

*facepalm*

i was on the phone with someone and she said "where the hell is my phone?"

 

[ssgt splatter]

I was on a cruise ship and I heard someone ask these 2 questions:
What time is the midnight buffet?
-AND-
Which elevators take you to the front of the ship?

I'm going to keep reading this thread, it's too funny to just stop.

"Are there such things as dick freckles ?"

uhh...what?

 

[some random guy]

"Are you sure?"

"No. I'm not sure. That's why I gave you A DEFINITE ANSWER!"

If I'm not sure about something then I say so.

Am I the only one who's annoyed by this?

"Where can I find porn on the internet?"
Admittedly that was from 4chan, but seriously, can't find porn on the net? For shame.

yeah, it's easy go to google and type the word porn.

Some guy asked me, "On a plane, what color is the black box?"
Me: "Uh... black?"
Guy: "No! Orange, idiot!"
He walked away with a smirk. I didn't know whether to be sad for my own stupidity or angry for the guy's stupid question/randomnness.

it is actually Orange.

But only a douchebag would feel smug about shouting that fact to someone.

Some are orange. Some are red. Some are black. Some are silver. The original one was red and was dubbed the "Red Egg", because that is what it looked like. The term black box came from some journalist saying to the inventor, Dr. David Warren, about his FDR (Flight Data Recorder), "This is a wonderful black box." Who knows why he called it that. It was invented around 1956, so much of the technology used was from espionage tech, which was "black tech" then. Who knows.

The jerk trying to make himself feel superior by doing that to you probably didn't know any of that. Being a pilot, I learned that useless trivia.

"in this state is murder a felony?"

Yes... Yes it is.

"Are there such things as dick freckles ?"

uhh...what?

I laughed so hard at this my eyes are watering.

I was told they are the shade of "International Orange", since its the most contrasting colour available, so easy to spot.

The same colour as the Golden Gate bridge.

"Did people actually see in black and white back then?" - some girl in my AP Global history class talking about the 1800s.

 

[reyttm4]

Just today actually this girl in my class asked me if Indian is a country, I then asked one of her friends if she thought it was a dumb question and she said no, oh dear.

 

[IronEd]

I dated a blonde and if I had a nickel for every stupid thing she said I would be a millionaire. But the best was my youngest sister was standing in the room and my other sister was lying on the bed watching tv. So my youngest sister says "wow i dont remember putting those pants on today" (she was staring at other sister on the bed) Then she goes "wait oh my god i thought you were me!" lol she thought she was my sister lying on the bed!!!!

"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.

Would have made sense to put this in my original post, but here it is.

Spoiler: Screencap lol

So they tried to defend this guy you say?

it's not the original. the original was posted on bash.org years ago.

 

[ssgt splatter]

so what, prey tell is the stupidist question you have been asked or heard? something along the lines of
"whats the time?"
whilst your standing near Big Ben
or being asked
"did you see that?"
in the cinema
common, i know theres alotta stupid people in the world. whats the stupidist question youve ever been asked?

You sir without a doubt have created the perfect thread. I read every reply to page 6 and I'll more than likely read the rest of the thread when I get home after school.

 

[TheFacelessOne]

"Theres no stupid questions-only stupid people"

Probably the stupidest one i've ever come across was,
"Who's the author of this book?" While holding the book.
