What's the silliest question you've ever been asked?

[handbagsatdawn33]

DH :- "I'm going to wash my car. Do you want me to do yours as well?"

His previous best was when I gave him something I'd found in Poundland :- "How much was it?"

Me, to my dirt-spattered housemate carrying his bicycle up the stairs "Ooh, have you been out on your bike?"

(To be fair conversation wears a bit thin during lockdown)

Whilst working in America

Customer: oh my god your Irish, do you know any leprechaun?
Me: yep, I've one living at the bottom of my garden and I've worked with a few, nice people

Are you courting?

Clearly not Auntie Vi, I'm here alone.

Registering my children when we moved GPs, the receptionist said 'And where were they born, do you know?'

@justforthecake I keep having the same circular conversation with my kids HV. It’s amazing in how many restaurants the server comes back with a message from the chef saying you can’t have that because it has egg in it. I’m going to get my kids to draw them a chicken and a cow next time.

While getting my running gear on one evening
DD1: What do you at running club?
Me: The first rule of running club ..............
She didn't get it, but she is only 12 so Id be surprised if she did.

Me while having a serious dumb moment: Who was Dorothy trying to see in The Wizard of Oz?

'Do you work here'
Whilst i'm wearing my work fleece with big company logo on, formal work wear, a badge with logo and my name and another 'help' badge with my name on????
No... i dress up for fun
Another one when i didn't actually work somewhere...
A woman came up to me in the UGG shop and asked me if we had this 'in a size 7?' I was 9 wearing a summery dress and looked at my mum very puzzled

I used to have chickens. An old friend of my mum's was visiting, and said "ooh, have you ever cracked open an egg and found a chicklet?" (chicklet?! WTF 😂). I said no because we don't have a cockerel. She looked really confused and said "what's that got to do with it?". She had children and grandchildren herself!

”Mummy what would happen if everybody in the whole world farted at the same time?" (DD then around 5)”

In fairness to your dd, @tinkywinkyshandbag, I think this is a jolly good question!

"have you always been so tall?' Yes, I was 5'10" when I was born

Working in a cafe
Customer: sausage roll please
Me: small or large?
Customer: what’s the difference?
Me: errr ones smaller and ones larger 😩

Gosh, and all these people are allowed out 😆

I was about to drive to work
Me: what are you doing this afternoon?
DH: might wash my car
Me: ooh mines filthy If you’re bored can you do mine too

DH: you’re taking it to work 🤦‍♂️
Me: oh yeah

When we had chickens I was surprised at the amount of people who thought that we might get chicks even though we had no cockerel

On the twins subject, I had mine back to back in an ordinary carry cot/ pram type thing shortly after they were born, they were premature so quite small and it was easier to take them out in that rather than the big double pram.
A lady looked in the pram, did a double- take and said "omg there's 2 in there!" Quick as a flash, I replied "omg, no, where did the other one come from?"

One of these twins, aged about 16, asked me what I was doing when I was stood on a chair, wallpaper steamer in my hand scraping wallpaper off. Told her I was making a cake.

And this twin is now a clinical psychologist! Makes you wonder.

When I worked in the city I would often stay late on a Friday to finish things off.
Invariably someone would come past my desk and say, "Oh, are you still here?"
My responses included, "No, you're hallucinating", "I am a hologram, Rift has gone home." and "Ah, you want Rift. Pleased to meet you, I'm her twin."

Them "Are you on any medication ?"
Me "Just the pill"
Them "Any chance you could be pregnant ?"
Me ".......hope not"

This isn't as stupid as you think. Being on the pill doesn't mean you're not pregnant, as it's not 100% foolproof.

"What time is the one o clock gun?" 🤔

@Whatelsecouldibecalled

Two friends are Brother and sister twins

Other Friend - ‘are you identical twins?’

Brother twin - ‘no I’m. A boy she’s a girl’

I got asked if my boy/girl twins were identical - by our paediatrician!

My DBro was admiring my DBunny, Belle.

Bro: what type is she?
Me: a French Lop.
Bro: She's lovely. So which country do they originate from?

DBro is 56, so should know better!

That farting question is brilliant!

DP last night ( we have been watching the BBC reruns of pride and prejudice) " I quite liked that Jane austen thing you made me watch, is there a second series?" 🤣

I didn't ask it, but the silliest question I've seen be asked was 'what colour are those red trays?'
