Ask A Stupid Question Day
Today is Ask a Stupid Question Day. It's your opportunity to speak up, and to ask all those questions you were afraid to ask. All those questions that you thought were too stupid or dumb to ask, have been piling up all year long. Today is the day to unload them. C'mon give it a try. Nobody will laugh......we hope.
This may be a stupid question, but I will ask it anyway...... Teachers and Employers say there is no such thing as a stupid question. Or, that no question is too stupid to ask. If this is true, then why do your classmates or co-workers laugh when you ask a question? Yes, people can be cruel. But, if you have a question, there's no better place to ask, than in the classroom or from your supervisor.
Today's Quote: "Stupid is as stupid does". Forrest Gump
Movie of the Day: "Dumb and Dumber"
Other "Stupid" stuff:
Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.
This might sound stupid, but......
Do you think I'm stupid enough to fall for that (duh!) ?
Seen on a T-shirt "I'm with Stupid". Well, if that's true, how smart are you?
According to holidayinsights.com, "the roots of this special day goes back to the 1980's. At the time, there was a movement by teachers to try to get kids to ask more questions in the classroom."

“hey zer0, i sent you some paperwork in july, did you get it processed?”
“nope, looks like it never even got to me.”
“oh. so should i resend it?”
Or, here’s a winner...
Phone rings...
You answer and say the name of the company
They say, what?
You repeat the name of the compay...
Then they ask if they’ve reached a completely different company...
WTF?
Please tell me that was not intended to be serious.
I had a great misdial last year when I got a call on my cell phone while working on an experiment.
I answered the phone and this guy just starts tearing into me. He’s yelling so loud that my co-worker can clearly hear the stream of profanities comming from this guy.
So I said, “Who the hell is this?”
He responds, “This is your father!” and starts yelling again.
I say, “How are you doing that, you’ve been dead for 11 years?”
That’s when the guy realized he had dialed the wrong number.
Finally , the guys’ side of the story. These are their rules!
Please note.. these are all numbered “1 “ ON PURPOSE!
1. Men are NOT mind readers.
1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You’re a big girl. If it’s up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don’t hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
1. Sunday sports It’s like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!
1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That’s what we do.
Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.
1. If you think you’re fat, you probably are. Don’t ask us.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
1. You can either ask us to do something Or tell us how you want it done. Not both.
If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials..
1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
1. If we ask what is wrong and you say “nothing,” We will act like nothing’s wrong.
We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.
1. If you ask a question you don’t want an answer to, Expect an answer you don’t want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine... Really
1. Don’t ask us what we’re thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball or motor sports
1. You have enough clothes.
1. You have too many shoes.
1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!
1. Thank you for reading this. Yes , I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight;
But did you know men really don’t mind that? It’s like camping.
“...What does Geronimo say when he jumps out of a plane?...”
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Why don’t they have Braille at Stop Signs. see #12
Sign in Braille Stop sign ahead
If the top light is bright it means STOP
Slow down Illegals crossing
You were speeding I got here as fast as i can ‘cause i have a question: is it legal to carry someone in the trunk ?
Well.. it could have been like the Wendy’s training video.
Which was in teh same styling.
And was serious.
And painful.
Here you go:
Sign at the end of the driveway by my guardshack says “[company name] truck EXIT only.”
Driver for CRST/UPS/Werner/NFI/etc drives down road, stops, READS the sign four or five times, then comes tearing down the EXIT until they reach me, then get out to ask:
“Is this Do It Best/Home Depot/UPS?”
Sign says who we are..
..and it isn’t any of the above.
How about “I will use Snopes.com before forwarding SPAM!” LOL!
