The weirdest question you heard in your life?

[tologna]

I remembera bunch of guys in uni asked me about the possiblity of a rifled shotgun.........................

Process that one if you dare

You can get rifled shotguns, or get a shotgun and add rifling to it, though I think they tend to be more restricted than normal shotguns in the US, and firing shot tends to muck the rifling up.

"Smoothbore rifle", on the other hand, is just wrong.

Likewise, laser/plasma rifle is either wrong, or rather weird.

There are rifled shotguns. But they only shoot slugs. They're commonly refered to as "slug guns."

Er, if they aren't designed to fire shot, why are they called shotguns?

Because they're just shotguns with the barrel swapped-out for a rifled one. It's about a two minute process, if you've already sighted it.

My brother asks me the most retarded questions;

"Would you **** a girl in the ass if she let you?"
"Would you **** a girl in the ass if someone held a gun to your head?"
"What would you do if someone walked up to you and punched you in the face for no reason?"
"If you had a dog you didn't want anymore, would you kill it or just let it run away?"
"If you were driving, would you cut across all the lanes just to cut someone off?"

He expects serious answers.

I worked at Disney World for 8 months, and we had two days of training on basically how to treat people nicely even when they're being stupid or rude. The main example question for stupid people was "What time is the 3 o'clock parade?" It was our joke question, and we all got a laugh out of it. Surely no guest is that stupid, we thought. Then one day, I was legitimately asked this question by a lady. She quickly corrected herself and asked what time will the parade be arriving in our area, but it still amused me to no end.

Oh, and I also had people ask me when we were going to put the dome up. As though we had a dome a couple of square miles large we could just lift over the Magic Kingdom when it rains.

"Do you like MLP?"

And the answer is NO. While there are probably a number of men my age who are into this stuff, I'm not one of them. Some people like strange things. Other people like other strange things. Sometimes, there isn't even a middle ground.

 

[Ectoplasmicz]

No joke, 'Do you also get a secret pleasure out of watching a fat kid eat a sandwich? With his stubby little fingers...it's so adorable!'

Also, 'Who is John Lennon?'. I mean COME ONNNNN

 

[Dethenger]

"Do you like penguins?"

I don't even know who asked me that. I was just sitting in my math class not talking to anybody, as I had been all year up until that point, when some girl turns around and asks me that question. I wasn't even entirely sure she was talking to me at first. She looked at me insistently and I just sort of said, "I don't really care for them one way or another." The next day she asked, "Do you like penguins yet?" I don't think I even replied.

A senior talking to a foren exchange student from germany

apart from the standard
Hittler & autobahn questions

Do They have trees in Germany?

 

[crudus]

I have two.

"Can you get pregnant if you have oral sex"? The person who asked this was 22 at the time.

and

"Do you and [your brother] have the same father"?

 

[Thaluikhain]

How do you multiply?
Use the asterisk.
Which one's the asterisk?
Shift + 8

On the other hand, I can have lots of fun reminding her of that over and over. Also, pointing out that the plus sign is the cross shaped one.

 

[SuperBio]

Is a tree alive.........I kid you not. And this was in Biology.

 

[Sirtety]

"What's a hymen?"

This question was asked by my 30+ year old (not sure exactly) FEMALE boss.

 

[Torrasque]

My little brother asking me: "What do the people in Mario Kart drive?"
Me: "Go... karts... ?"

 

[renegade7]

Here is a conversation I had in the last week with a friend of mine. Just to set up the irony of the thing, she has (or at least claims to have) an IQ of 155.

"So how are you doing today?"
Her: " I think I picked my nose so hard I poked my brain...is that even possible?:
She intends to major in neuroscience, I might add...not off to a great start there...

Also, she once asked me:
"So are there like, different programming languages?"

Adorable

 

[lacktheknack]

Random on the street: "Do you eat kittens?"

I'm assuming I was on the receiving end of a particularly drunk round of Truth or Dare.

[Garyn Dakari]

I was troubleshooting for a friend about half a year ago, and at some point I asked him:

Me: Do you have a microphone?

Him: What's a microphone?

...

He's 27. Anyway, I was so surprised at his question, at first I just said "Uh...The thing you talk into..." Then I gave him a better explanation about recording voices and such, and he replied with:

Him: Oh, you mean that thing singers hold?

I showed him the wikipedia page for microphones after that -_-

 

[tthor]

I have two.

"Can you get pregnant if you have oral sex"? The person who asked this was 22 at the time.

and

"Do you and [your brother] have the same father"?

I had a friend (who was actually kinda slutty) who strongly believed you could get pregnant from oral sex.. I kept trying to correct her, but she kept saying it...

My friend one day, completely out f the blue:

"Is two girls and a guy is a threesome, and two guys and a girl is a hells gate (or whatever he said), what's three guys"

I will remember that question til the day I die.

 

[crudus]

Also, 'Who is John Lennon?'. I mean COME ONNNNN

Everybody is going to ask that question at some point. Give us some context. Also, why does it matter if someone hasn't heard of a guy who died 32 years ago? Regardless of fame.

My friend one day, completely out f the blue:

"Is two girls and a guy is a threesome, and two guys and a girl is a hells gate (or whatever he said), what's three guys"

He probably said "devil's three-way"

I had a friend (who was actually kinda slutty) who strongly believed you could get pregnant from oral sex.. I kept trying to correct her, but she kept saying it...

At that point I would say "Yes honey. It actually gives you the best chances of pregnancy". I thought I would do some lucky guy a favor as well as the whole world.
