The one question they always ask you that you hate

[Blackmagic1515]

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?

"Why do you grow your hair?"
(I have shoulder-blade length hair, and yes, I'm a guy)

Because I want to okay?
Why do you have a "male" haircut that every single other guy in the goddamn city has?
Plus it feels nice to swish around =3

 

[vikeif]

"Are you OK"

Buster wolf!
(I know bad joke.)
Mine is always when I watching a movie with my little brother "What happens next!?"

 

[Dystopia]

'You're called Lisa-Marie?! Wow, are your parents Elvis fans?!'

NO.

 

[Greyhamster]

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!

WTF! I got the same question all the time while I worked in a supermarket. Always eggs! Sometimes potatoes as well!

Weeeeiiird.

 

[Arduras]

Worst of the worst for me would be people asking about my job.
I work for a Road Crash Organisation, and people ask me every time I tell em:
"Been to any fatalities?"
I don't think they get that I can't tell them anything, and all fatalities are bloody bad memories!!!


assholes....

 

[CK76]

"Why are you so single?"

Well, I had not thought about it, now let me consider the glaring character flaws I have.

 

[amppi1236]

I absolutely HATE when I'm asked: "Why did you forget ______?"
I DON'T KNOW! OK?! I FORGOT! HOW JHARD IS IT TO UNDERSTAND?!!

 

[Simmo8591]

ok, mine needs context. My degree is Mathematics, Operational research, statistics and Economics
the uni shortens this to MORSE just to make things easier.

the number of times people ask me what i do then go 'so you can speak morse code then?'
'yes, it's a four year course and we try and get through a new letter every month, next week were learning the letter P, im so excited i could cry'

tho i swear i did once get the reply 'that seems pretty easy, just learning a new alphabet, do you have to write essays in morse code after wards?'


how would that even go???? dot dot dot pause dot dot.....

either that or your English is really good for an Irish person....

 

[Schabam]

"so i heard you play guitar?"

i play bass...

 

[0p3rati0n]

"Why is your hair so short?"

I have hair that literally can not grow very long. It will not lay flat. So I alway have to get these marine style type haircuts

"What's instrument do you play?"
Me: Baritone...
"What's a baritone?"

Yeah I know a baritone isn't a frequently used instrument. You'll probably see 2-3 in an orchestra/band. But seriously every time I give that answer that question always follows. So FUCKING annoying!

 

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

"Can I wear your glasses?"

I seem to be a magnet for that question. Nobody else I know with glasses gets asked that and yet, I do? Oh well, I suppose it's a neat ice-breaker.

I get that one alot. Then "Ow, dammit, they gave me a headache." Yay for bad eyes?

OT:Is your first name really H? Really? For Real? No it couldn't possibly be.

"Yes it is. I told you once and I refuse to talk to you until you accept it."

[sub][sub][sub]Just to clarify, I don't mind being asked the first time [/sub][/sub][/sub]

 

[Tsunimo]

"Can I wear your glasses?" Then when they take them anyway:
"Your eyesight is really bad." No shit that's why I wear the fucking glasses.
I also get "Why are you so angry?" a lot.
I'm not angry, I just do not feel the need to force a fake smile on my face every waking minute of the day... Do you have a problem with that?

 

[Dags90]

Newsflash, there's more than a single line arriving to a station and a person standing there could've either missed the bus by an inch (happened to me more times than I care to count which is why I'm in a "fuck you bastards" mode now and walking everywhere) or just waiting for another one.

Maybe there's a single line per station where you live though? Dunno, that'd be news to me, usually there's between 3-7 different bus lines that arrive on the same station over here

But which bus? That there would be several buses only makes the situation more ambiguous. Unless the person is walking around with a sign saying "I'm waiting for the bus to X" the question doesn't make any sense to the person hearing it. Are they presuming the person is psychic? Maybe if they were just checking to make sure that buses in general were running, which seems a bit silly to ask, and an even sillier way of phrasing the question.

It's a stupid question on its face.. It's like if you approached a stranger and starting using pronouns without pointing at anything or indicating what they might be. Without any context it doesn't make any sense.

So if you had sex with someone then would you be the man or the woman?

This just in. Gays are shape shifters.
[sub]But seriously, I hate it when people try to heteronormalize (is that a word?) same-sex relationships.[/sub]

 

[the fake]

"can you please cut your hair" .... NO

So why don't you dress more girly?

Tell them your undercover as a Boy.

 

[jbchillin]

well the question i hate is "Why are you a bears fan?" I live in wisconsin and the bears are their rivals and i get asked this EVERY SINGLE SUNDAY.

 

[Chamale]

Why are you so tall?

I DON'T KNOW MANG. GENETICS?

From now on, I think I'll tell people I was bitten by a radioactive basketball player.

 

[Wolfe90]

I hate when you go to the hospital and the doctor asks "how are you feeling today?"

 

[gardyna]

I'm in Canada, so it follows:
Do you guys live in igloos?

I´m Icelandic and i just laugh when i get that question (I have made an igloo once but that was just for fun)
