One time at work,A manager was explaining to a new hire that the only stupid question is the one you don`t ask. So I asked him"If the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie,what would a cinder block do?" Some people have no sense of humor. Believe it or not,I`m no stranger to getting in trouble at work because of my mouth. What is the most stupid question you ever asked someone?

Why are blackberries red when they're green?
Or the one that floored one of my college professors when he asked if there were any questions after his lecture.............
If a donkey is called an ass
And a male sheep is called a ram
Why is a ram up the ass called a goose?

True story.
When I was a teenager my cousin had this really cute girlfriend. She was blonde, but that's irrelevant. I think. Yeah. Irrelevant.
Anyway, they had just returned home from a trip to the beach. He told me that one afternoon they were relaxing on the beach, just catching some rays, when out of the blue she asked him: "Chris, why don't airplanes ever run into stars?"
Apparently she was serious.
How do you respond to something like that?

^ well duh, they only fly during the day, before the stars come out.
I hope he married that girl.

OMG!!!!! It scares me to know that there are people out there that are that DUMB. Really???? She seemed normal, but man what's going on in that pretty little head?

That is just about as dumb as my most stupid question..................
"Will you marry me?"
The first time was bad enough but the second time was a complete disaster.

I have taught courses in some extremely dry material (U.S. Federal Acquisition Regulation requirements for contractors wishing to subcontract part of their work - it makes me yawn just typing it). When confronted with new material, no matter how it's laid out and no matter how little experience they have with the topic, people will ALWAYS want to address it from their experience. It doesn't surprise me in the least that she immediately went to her personal experience to try to resolve the question. And there's just no way to get to the destination with that as a starting point.

Can't blame you. I used to fall asleep teaching it.

Just thought of another one:
"Can I ask a stupid question?" (We've all heard someone ask something like this before.)
Next time, be ready, and respond with: "Yes. Better than anyone I know."
Well, hey, they deserve what they get, right?

How about: "Can I ask you a question?"
I always answer, "You just did."

OK, so I had to resurrect this thread because last week someone asked me what could be the supidest question I've ever been asked.
Background: Our group at work recently had an evening dinner which was catered, but we of course had to buy the beer (several cases) which the caterers could then turn around and charge us labor for serving to us. That ridiculousness aside, we had several cases of beer left over at the end of the evening.
(Apparently there were more wine drinkers in the crowd than someone had thought, and we were all driving, so that's why.)
Anyway, the next day I got a call from the person in the group who had organized the dinner. They actually said this:
"Hey, we've got a lot of beer left over from last night . . . do you want it?"
