Wait, nevermind, there is.
Has the situation ever arisen that a question so innexplicably retarded has been asked that WTFs filled the room for the next few minutes? Well, when it does happen, it can be great. Some people may ask a dumb question on purpose, just to be funny. Or, someone with the accumulative IQ of an appliance store will actually ask something dumb and be completely serious about it. Most of the time, laughs are to be had by all.
Some that come to mind:
Some broad asked the biology prof if you could survive with only ONE liver. I shit you not... a college student actually asked this!
Some chick asked me if black people could get sunburned.
A guy asked me if he could access the internet with a computer. What was he using before? A Ouija board??
I remember a little shit of a kid asking his mother where "yellow people" lived? He looked like he was 12 years old for god's sake!
Ugh, that's all I can type for now. My head hurts.

There was a chick in my freshman bio. class from some rural county in West Virginia that genuinely thought that black people where genetically different than white people and that two mixed people were like mules and couldn't have babies.
ReplyDeleteOh what a lovely thing to think.
ReplyDeleteWhat a relief!! I don't have to worry about my kids getting knocked up at an early age--or at all!!! WHOO HOO!

What I found hysterical about this post was not that I agreed with every word of it, but that that you had a typo and the word dumb together in the title.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I didn't agree with every word. The sunburned question isn't that dumb, and black people aren't the only ones that get asked. With all the shades of "white", we all know redheads burn if they even think about the sun -- and with each shade that is darker, they can handle the sun a bit more. It stands to reason to ask if you even get sunburned, and if you do where in the progression you fit. Yep, me and my cracker friends have discussed tolerance of sunlight quite a bit while hanging out at beaches...
Okay. You may laugh at me now.
