What is the stupidest question you have ever asked?

It was asking for it I agree ;)

Actually I disagree, I think he misread it as "been asked", as some others seem to have.

Or has there been some intervention by an interfering mod, as we can't edit thread titles?

Was she pissed? :lolol:


BTW solar powered calculators all have batteries - they are charged by daylight, then the device runs off the batteries.

Vankleek Hill, actually....
In Montreal I was asked by an American couple which part of Australia I came from...they looked confused when I said Sussex, even more so when I told them that it was in England, one of them then asked why I had and Australian accent?

Funnily enough I occasionally get asked the same question in Toronto. You'd think in Montreal being Francophones that they would recognise the accent. :rolleyes:

I heard a story about a group being shown around the Greenham Common USAF base and being shown all the hardware/missiles etc., when a woman asked the guide about Cruise, to be told, 'No. They don't have crews...' :O

Whilst out on a game drive in the Kruger National Park, we saw a herd of Zebra. The Yank sitting next to me said "Oh Gee, is that a Tiger??" She got rather upset when I could not stop laughing.

It was quite a while back and the first couple of months into owning a mobile phone and I'd moved house.
I got to work and realised it was missing so I was worried all day in case I'd dropped it, left it at the garage etc.
When I got home that evening the first thing I did was to phone the mobile...I could hear it! Brilliant!
Picked it up and noticed I had a missed call.
Didn't recognise the number.
Rang it from my land line to save pennies and got the 1571 answerphone and ended up leaving a message to myself asking me who I was and what did I want.

Saw this on Cricinfo

"I simply don't know how they have got to their age without electrocuting themselves or doing themselves some real harm...Rob Key asked Adil Rashid the other day what animal a lamb came from. He thought it was a cow!"

Sitting in the back of a car with a jumbo sized hangover en route to Swansea away a few years back, I asked in all innocence "What river does the Severn bridge go over?"
