[FOR FUN] Stupid Questions
Edvard:
(Actual question when I worked at Kinko's ages ago)
"Wow, transparencies are kind of expensive... Oh hey, can I get them double-sided to save a few bucks?"
;D

ok...my true story.
My older sister is an artist. So she's used to seeing 'reality' the way she wants to see it.
I once met her for lunch where she ordered a BLT Club Sandwich.
When it arrived, she took a bite out of it, studied it carefully as she chewed, turned it upside down, removed the lowest layer of bread, and then proceeded to dump half a shaker of salt on it.
When I commented I couldn't believe she was putting all that salt on bacon, she replied: "I'm not putting it on the bacon. I'm putting it on the lettuce and the tomato."
This isn't the only tale I could tell about her form of logic...or perhaps more correctly: para-logic.
;D

I'd like to cross-post this - I think I am worthy:

I've been thinking about getting an iPad for an ebook reader because it can hold thousands of books. How heavy would that be?

How many books can you read at once?
How many books do you really need to carry around with you?

App I think you missed that this was a joke -- the joke was the idea that the ipad would get heavier the more books you add. -mouser (February 15, 2011, 09:49 AM)

-I'm surprised mouser didn't see at once that app103's question was a proper "stupid" contra-question, asked in accordance with the thread's subject ;-)

1'st grader Curt, to the milkman at the school: I forgot my milk coupon. What to do?
Milkman: Just give me two coupons tomorrow.
Curt: Give two coupons and then only get one milk? No Thankx!
cranioscopical:
I think many of us have had one of theseā¦
While sitting in a board room, trying to explain something really quite simple to a particularly dense VP, he asked me "Can I ask a stupid question?"
I guess it's the only kind he had to offer.
