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?"

DH asked me a question, I didn't understand so I said, what do you mean ?

He answered, what do you mean, what do I mean ?

Ffs

I used to work for a travel company, the questions asked by the guests were beyond stupid.

Can we take the Thames river cruise when we get to Paris?

And how do they serve the carrot and coriander soup without it running out through all the holes they seemed to be thinking of colander).

Were questions I was asked at least 20 times every single week. My mind used to boggle.it was the ultimate place for stupid questions

When my son was a baby DH and I were out one night (we had been together a couple of years by this time) when a friend we hadnt seen for a while turned up. She came over and asked if it was true I had a baby. I said it was she then asked "who's the father?" DH was very annoyed and of course said it was him. Cant imagine what was going on in her head.

With head tilt 'Have you never met anyone ' I've met shitloads of people but I still prefer me!

I once got asked if I was a famous person. I said no I'm not her. The person then said 'are you sure because I know she's in the UK right now'.

"Can you tell me where I'm going?"
"Do you/can you hear what you're/I'm saying?"

I am a twin (I am female and have a male twin) and once was asked if we are identical

Oh - and when you mention you live in a certain state (or somewhere equally big)..."Oh, I know someone who lives/who has been there! Do you know so-and-so?"

Are they twins? There is a five year age gap between the boys ds2 is clearly a baby ds1 is in his school uniform

Have you more children? Just my daughter...is she related to your sons?

When the crazy lady left an elderly woman came over and said you were very paitent but YOUR FACE 🤣🤣🤣🤣

On explaining to someone that my husband was training to be a vicar:

Oh, is he into that kind of thing then?

DH watching footage dedicated to a late sportsman.

“Do you think they filmed this before he died?”

I’ve never let him live it down.

This reminds me of a late, and much missed patient of mine. He would ask for whichever DVD he fancied at the time. Then ask if certain actors were in it (usually Jackie Chan and John Wayne). Then he'd ask if they were alive. When we said John Wayne wasn't he would always look amazed and ask how he was on the dvd then God I miss that man!

A debate in the office about whether the 5th or 6th of January was 12th night.

'What does it say in the bible about taking your Christmas tree down'?

I don’t understand half of these. I must be really quite silly.

A friend once asked me 'are you sure the baby isn't yours?'. I'm female, so yes I am quite sure that my ex-bfs baby is not mine, seeing as it is in someone else's uterus.

That one is hilarious, though.

I've heard so many corkers from strangers when with my twins out and about but my favourite was " so is having twins easier or harder than having one baby?"

"How long is the one hour service?"
"How much is the free film?"

• would get asked these on an almost daily basis when working in a photographers.

My DM and I were looking through one of her family albums. She points to a picture of a 12 week scan and asks me 'who's that?' like I'd know who in the family it was just by glancing at it.

Working in a restaurant “excuse me, my vegan breakfast is missing bacon” I could maybe understand if they meant vegan “bacon”, but it wasn’t even listed on the menu..like anywhere

Is giving birth painful? Asked by a medical doctor....

The worst one I had when speaking to a colleague, looking at my pregnant bump. “So..do you know who the father is?” Erm..excuse me?

In labour with my second, strong contractions. My mum arrives to look after dd1 and asks me if they hurt

"Are you sure you're not pregnant?"....

Asked by a nurse after I gave my medical history including details of my hysterectomy which we discussed for quite a few minutes.

I couldn't help myself... I said "Quite sure... unless Jesus is planning a sequel...."

Are your parents Asian?

Why, yes. My mother is Asian and my father is Asian and that's why I'm... white. Like, really freckly Irish white.

On a client site I was asked if I wanted coffee from their machine, I said I'll have a latte, I was then asked "do you want milk with that?"

After being told we could never conceive natural, 2 rounds of ivf later... DS was born...

My aunt: "make sure you're careful, you're extra fertile around now"

Me: "we can't conceive naturally..."

Aunt: "oh you will!!"

After this being said 30 or so times, at my lowest point I snapped when she said it in a room full of friends and shouted "DH sperm don't fucking leave his balls"

She's still convinced we'll "get caught"

She's not of an age where ivf is confusing she's thirty fucking nine

I've just realised it's not a question but it was bloody silly

Not to me but to a friend. For background my friend is Deaf and from Jordan, she has a watch with 'proper' Arabic numbers on it.

My mum and dad were visiting, I said to my mum, "have a look at friend's watch"

Mum, "Is it in Braille?"

I managed to sign that to my friend with a straight face and we both looked at her waiting for the penny to drop.

Not a question but when she finaly said I could get my ears pierced she suggested we go a particular city and find a place that does piercing, "while you wait", I asked her if there were okaces you dropped your ears off and collected them pierced later.

Oh and getting a coffe in McDonalds

Can I have a black coffee please?
Do you want milk and sugar with that
No, just a black coffee
Oh you might have wanted milk and sugar

Hands over the coffee with milk and sugar

Every week for about 6 months.
