What's the stupidest thing anyone has ever said to you/asked you?

mine:

"Who is hitler?"

yours?

Friend of mine has a phone which has a small flashing green light on the top, and while we were out at the pub one night his sister looked at the little light for a while and said:

"does that light tell a deaf person if the phone is ringing?"

jesus · 02-19-2005, 02:40 PM

oh, I have another, my friend asked her dad if he had ever met Abe Lincoln

A girl in math class asking about a comma:

"what's that wierd squiggly dot thing?"

A guy on the lift with me watching my friend ski switch (backwards) down the hill:

"Oh my god what the hell is that kid doing!! You're not supposed to ski backwards! What is he doing-wait, he's gonna go off that jump, how does he expect to be able to go off that jum- huh...he landed it..."

I really get annoyed with stupid people who are completely ignorant of skiers in the park, so it's always fun to watch them make complete idiots of themselves, like in this next scenario:

My friend and I were filming in the park, and this old guy and his little kid decide to take a nice leisure run through the park, which is annoying enough since they always cut across the landning and piss us all off. So I'm standing next to this dad and his kid waiting to film my buddy hitting the rail, and we see a boarder hit it first. so overhear the kid ask his dad, "dad, can skiers go on rails too?" the dad, being the ignorant fool that he is, says, "of course not son, rails are only made for snowboarders" Now I'd caught this whole exchange on camera, and my buddy decided that was his cue to hit the rail, perfect technique on the down-flat-down rail, and an unbelievably smooth, stylie 270 off. I turned my camera on to the dad and said, "so what was that about skiers not being able to hit rails?" then switched off the camera, and skied down to get ready to film the next hit. I love it when we can do things like that.

another:

"Didn't hairet tubman invent the bathtub?"

I don't know if the kid was joking when he said this or not, but knowing him he wasn't.

A bunch of us are sitting around in class waiting for the bell to ring:

dumb kid: ya know guys, one day, I'm just gonna sell all my sh*t for a hippy van, and take a raod trip all the way to china
the rest of us: *laughing*
dumb kid: what? you don't think I'd sell all my sh*t and take a road trip to china? I could easily do it, i don't need all this extra sh*t to live
me: well no, you couldn't do it because there's a f*cking ocean in between canada and china you retard
dumb kid: shut up

stupid quotes from a girl in my social studies class last year:

"hey guys, india is like above china right?"

dumb girl: "Are there seriously countries that don't have enough food for everyone?!"
me: "uhhh, yeah, lots."
dumb girl: "oh my god that's horrible! But, like, what happens to them if they don't have enough food?!"
me: "uh, they die."

dumb girl: "so like, does the sun revolve around the earth, or like how does that work?"

I swear I have the same girl in my class now.

We'd been doing Romeo and Juliet for a week or so in our English Lit class, and one day, she turns to her friend and goes "Hey, did that Shakee-speare guy or whatever he's called write this?"

There's too many stories of her to tell, and to be honest, you'd think I was making it up. The amount of times Ive heard the words "I dont get iiiiiiit" though... Un-f*cking-believable.

jibber · 02-19-2005, 03:16 PM

^yep, then she gets out her mirror and reapplies all her makeup in class. Once she actually got out this little battery powered curling iron and started curling her hair in he middle of class. Ahh how I'm going to miss high school.

ArtistInTheAmbulance · 02-19-2005, 03:18 PM

Ha yes!! Oh wow its the same person.. Except now she gets out her straighteners. She actually asked the teacher once if she could go out and fill up the water in it. *Sigh* Poor lass... Never quite there really.

jibber · 02-19-2005, 03:20 PM

^haha, yes and there are always such a large group of them, basically all clones of eachother.
