The Dumb Question Thread

[wolf_Q]

This is a thread for questions......ANY topic. Just things you've never dared ask, or maybe questions that you didn't think were worthy of their own thread. ;) Not necessarily dumb questions either!

My question of the day:

Somebody just told me this, and I was wondering if it was true. Does wal-mart really only sell edited cds?

[RICHARD]

from what i understand, walmart has taken an anti 'smut; stand too!

I guess I'm cerebrally challanged, too, because I have *always* wondered this!!!!! I would love to find out why!!!

Great thread, Amy!! Are you familiar with the book "Imponderables"? Its full of life's mystery questions and answers all kinds of questions like these.

[zippy-kat]

:D :D CUTE thread, Amy!!

I wanna know why there are never enough buns in a pkg -- or why there are too many hotdogs/turkeydogs in a pkg.

And why are there 13 in a baker's dozen? For taste-testing purposes?

pkg means

ahum, isn't it: " per kilogram" ?

Why do doors in America open the other way than in Belgium? ?
Here you have to "pull", in America, you have to "push"... . In my opinion the American way is the better one!;)

[Edwina's Secretary]

Lut....here doors are suppose to open out....fire code...so that in an emergency exiting is easier -- particularly in a crowded building!

:confused:

:D

baker's dozen, noun.

Thirteen (instead of twelve).
The term came into use during a period when there were heavy penalties for selling short weight.
Bakers would therefore supply an extra quantity of loaves to avoid the risk of a fine.

My GranMom always kept a cookie jar full of *Fresh* plain cake donuts in her pantry. If the Baker himself had waited on Grammy, there were ALWAYS 13 in the bag! :) I once asked if he couldn't *count*? She said "No, that's his way of *thanking* me for being a good customer." ;)
An poor ole #13 never made it into the cookie jar! :D

Someone told my mom that only male schaunzers can be black. Sounds sotra unlikely to me, but I wondered if anyone else has ever heard this?

[bluekat]

Can't answer your question, don't know much about Schnauzers, just know that my mom loves black ones.
I love this thread, I had so many stupid questions before, but just can't think of one now.

[HoRsELUvR]

same here bluekat.i have lots of dumb questions i cant recall.this is a great thread.the next time i remember my dumb questions or any questions i will post them.

i didn't think that color wouldbe quite so genetically linked. Thanks for the picture to prove it wrong :)

[anna_66]

our next door neighbor also has 2 black females (mother & daughter) in fact she (momma) had 3 black females & 1 black male:D

[wolf_Q]

My sister's schnauzer is black, and she's a female....:)

Somehow color must be linked though, because its *very* rare for a calico cat to be male.

p.s. Tonya what you said about pkg and your statement just about had me in tears LMAO! :D

[wolfsoul]

Somehow color must be linked though, because its *very* rare for a calico cat to be male.

I have a book about calicos and tortis, and it says that if one is a male that it has a genetic defect :eek:

I have a stupid question lol

Why did the word "bitch" pertaining to a female dog, suddenly turn into a bad word? Personally, I don't believe that female dogs are that hard to live with...except Timber..

This might be just my place of work, and It might just be a pet Peeve not a dumb question. But as I work in a small hospital why is it if people get lost or turned around And you ask them if they need help they get nasty? Excuse me I know where I am going and apparently you don't!

[shais_mom]

If someone is on a major Highway Like I75, and the Speed Limit signs say
70mph
55mph
or something like that
can a person get a ticket if they tell the officer that they just added the numbers together?

[kingrattus]

I couldn't think of any stupid questions, so I posted stupid questions I get asked.

ok I work at a post office & the one question that I get a little too often is, what do I do with this? & they're holding a stamp :mad: :mad: :mad:

I swear to god my face must turn red every time I get asked that. I understand if its a kid or a person not from around here, but come one white people!! white people in suits r the worst! they ask the stupidest questions, that all canadian/us people.

please sign the clear window means: Sign ur damn name... grrrr

please fill out this customs slip (it asks 3 little questions).. poeple say: what do I do with this? Do I have to fill out this part?


AHHHHHHHHHH...

[Twisterdog]

Someone told my mom that only male schaunzers can be black. Sounds sotra unlikely to me, but I wondered if anyone else has ever heard this?

That's not true. Color is not related to sex in schnauzers ... or in any dog that I'm aware of. I groom several black, female schnauzers. Some colors/patterns of cats are linked to sex ... i.e. female calicos.

Here's my dumb question:

A chicken or duck or whatever lays a certain number of eggs before they begin to set on them. This is called a "clutch" of eggs. Let's say the size of the clutch is 26 eggs ... so the bird lays an egg every day for 26 days, but it doesn't set on the eggs until they are all laid. So ... for almost a month, the eggs are just laying there in the nest. The temperature can vary a lot depending on where this is .... over 100 degrees to below freezing at night. So ... after the 26th day, the bird sets on the eggs and all the babies hatch weeks later, right? Why don't the eggs get rotten or go bad during those days before the bird starts to set on them? And all the eggs hatch the same day, basically. So the babies inside only start to grow once the bird starts setting on them? What happens before? They just sit there in suspended animation? Creepy!!!!!!

[kingrattus]

wow, never thought of that :eek:

[anna_66]

Mind you, I'm a waitress so I get asked alot of dumb questions:rolleyes:

What are crunchy fried oysters?
Well duh...their just what they say "crunchy fried oysters"!

[4 Dog Mother]

I worked in a Catholic Church Parish Office for 16 years and two of the dumb questions we were asked were:

What time is midnight Mass?

and for those who didn't want to attend an entire Mass on Ash Wednesday,

What time are they putting the ashes on?

If 7-11 is open 24 hours a day, all year around, why do they have a lock on their door?

[Cheshirekatt]

Ok stupid question I get at work. I'm a hairdresser...this is the situation. I've dyed my brown hair blonde and have some grow out. The client will then ask me why I dye my roots brown. Huh? People seem to think their hair grows from the ends, not the scalp.

[lovemyshiba]

I've often wondered that--all 24 hour convenience stores have locks--why?????????

And, like Anna, I get asked tons of dumb questions at work. Every weekend, we have seafood specials. The seafood gets flown in so it's fresh, and we have scallops, mussels, crabcakes, and salmon. The special starts on Friday, and Saturday, and if there are some left, it continues til Sunday. We have a "special board' where they are all written. It is unbelievable the amount of people who come in on Sunday for dinner, read the special on the board (last week it was chicken marsala, for example), and then ask for the salmon. And these are all people who come here all the time, apparently they think we have a secret salmon stash somewhere:rolleyes:

[slleipnir]

My bro's friend worked as a computer question answer thingie for phone ins..and he once got someone call in asking why their comp wouldn't work..like 'is it on' yes, it's on..and a bunch more till 'is it plugged in' and he answer no, we don't have power. or something...appearintly it actually happened lol :x

Here is my dumb question:

Why is there braille on drive thru ATM's?" :eek:

[RICHARD]

what is the white stick figure on the bean bag chair i see painted on the parking spots near the front of the stores???


:eek:

[Randi]

[Cataholic]

Why are the speed zones reduced in front of schools during the school day? Don't we assume all the kids are inside the schools, learning away? Shouldnt the school speed zones be in effect when kids are OUT OF SCHOOL? Like, all summer long?

I have NEVER understood why ATMs have braille. First, are you driving while blind? OHHHHH I understand, you are walking in a area cars normally drive through...and you wonder why you are run over like a pancake, and now need those stick figure spots that Richard was making fun of?


ALRIGHT- one more, WHY WHY WHY do you have to enter your account number on those automated phone lines, and the FIRST thing the person that answers says? "Can I have your account number, please?". What, was that just a digit exercise???

[Cincy'sMom]

this is a more specific stupid question, but why can'tmy boss think outside the exactness of a question. Huh?

Today I was getting stone chip repaired in my windshield. The order was in Ralph's name becuase he is the primary on our insurance. Service man comes in, asks for Ralph ___( mind you, I work in a company with 11 people, and not only do we have a company dinner every yaer at Christmas, but this boss came to my wedding!) My boss tells him, nope, no one here by that name. You are inthe wrong place! Thankfull yht e service guy could think on his feet and ask, what about a Mrs.____. Oh, yeah...we have one of those! AND THIS MAN HAS A PhD!!!

[Cataholic]

Might I suggest it is BECAUSE of his PhD that he wasnt able to make the connection? We have people that call here and ask for 'Joanna' . Guess who does NOT get the call?

[ILoveMyAbbyGirl]

Originally posted by Randi

just a guess, but maybe in case something happens, and no one can get in or something where they have to close down... ?

[Andie]

Ok here's a question I thought was too stupid to ask but hey I'll go for it.

How do I get Isis to cover her poop?

It drives me crazy she'll cover up her pee but poop no way! This cat's poop can peel paint too.:o

[PayItForward]

What time is midnight Mass?

That idiotic question reminds me of the following idiotic question.

Why do customers in a 'Everything is a pound(£) shop'
still ask 'How much is that ?'

Duhhhh. A Pound (£)

[Crikit]

Okay here's one that's been bugging me for a while now...before I put it down I'll just say that yes I know how pathetic I am ;) ...

Mickey Mouse, does he have commitment issues or something? After all he's been going out with Minnie for over 60 years now and they still aren't married...or engaged even.

[wolfsoul]

Mickey Mouse, does he have commitment issues or something? After all he's been going out with Minnie for over 60 years now and they still aren't married...or engaged even.

I blame Minnie. Whenever Mickey tries to do something nice and something bad happens, she immediatly blames him. Like that whole tornado episode when the stupid tornado was the one that wrecked her yard...She's always jumping to conclusions ;)

I have a question; Why is it that Draino is so incredibly corrosive that it can wipe out all that is clogging your drain, and yet it manages to stay in the thin plastic bottle? :p

[Desert Arabian]

When a firehouse catches on fire, who comes to put out the fire???!!!


hehehe, lol, :D :D :p :p I know other county fire departments would come, but the question sounds funny at first.

[Uabassoon]

I've often wondered that--all 24 hour convenience stores have locks--why?????????

Well somtimes especially when you don't live on the good side of town, convenience stores get held up so they need to shut down and wait for the cops to come and fix things. It happens here all the time. It's kind of pain when you drive to the 7/11 and they are closed.

[Miss Meow]

What is Miracle Whip?

[SANDY FROST]

Why is the sky blue?
Sandy Frost:D

[wolf_Q]

What is Miracle Whip?

It's a white creaming dressing, similar to Mayonaise...used on sandwhiches and in things like potato salad, etc. It's tangy and sweeter then Mayonaise. Good stuff. :)

Why is the abbreviation for pound Lb. ?

Why is the word "nuclear" so hard to pronounce? lol...:rolleyes:

chemistry! Cincy's Mom might be able to verify this but here's my stab at an answer:

When Draino interacts with the water, a chemical change occurs -- it "melts" (maybe attacks/loosens is a better word) the goop and the water flushes it away. I remember creating a version of draino in chemistry but darned if I can remember what ingredients were used-- dish soap was one.

[bluekat]

Been wondering about this for awhile now,
how old does a puppy have to be to leave his mother? I don't know much about dogs. Before, my sister's friend got a new dog, 5 weeks old. I thought of a kitty, who could only leave the mother when they reach at least 8 weeks.
So how old does a puppy have to be?

[Cheshirekatt]

Eight to ten weeks is best. They can leave earlier, but it's not good for them. It's best if they can have at least one of their shots first before they leave. Gives them a little extra protection.


Here's my dumb question:

Why will dogs refuse to eat perfectly good dog food, but will gladly graze out of the litter box for kitty rocca?

Vet told me that cat food has nurtients that dog food doesn't, the cat's body doesn't use all of these nutrients so some of it ummm comes out the other end. Presto, mini buffet for the puppers.

My question though: How do the dogs know that the nutrients are in there and that they don't get them in their food?

Actually, it isn't just a stupid thing ;) When the Bible was first written, the Hebrew it was written in had no spaces between any of the words. People translating the Bible had to figure out where the spaces should have been. Therefore, it's pretty good evidence that the Bible is interpreted. Because it was never originally written in English, no one can really say for sure what the original meanings were, because there aren't specific translations from Hebrew to English, and sometimes the "closest match" isn't necessarily the correct meaning. I learned this in my University course about the Bible and it's literature.

Here's one for you, Anna. This is not my story. This actually happened to Gillian Anderson once. A patron ordered the mixed fish stew. When Gillian brought it out, the lady kind of poked at it a bit with her fork while making the kind of face people make when they smell something bad.

The lady said, "Oh, I didn't realize there was FISH in this."

Gillian said she turned beet red and replied through clenched teeth, "MIXED. . .FISH. . .STEW. Which one of these three words didn't you get??"

As for me, I work at an electronics store. Yet one more place that gets flooded with stupid questions every day, like when people want us to test their cordless phones, we need the entire phone, including the power supply. People will bring in just the handset, or just the base. Or everything but the power supply.

We tell them, "We will need the power supply, so we can test that too and see if that's the problem."

Standard response: "What's a power supply?"

Me: "The thing that plugs the phone into the electrical outlet."

Them: "You mean this?" And they proceed to show me the telephone cord.

Me: (sighing softly) "No. That's the telephone cord. I need the power supply, also called the power adapter. The thing that plugs into the electrical outlet."

Them: "Uh. . .I don't get it."

*sigh* At this point, I usually shake my head in disbelief and try again. The same exchange is then repeated several times until the customer gets it, if at all.

wicca is the same as pagen. White magic, witchcraft, that sort of thing :) Alot of my friends are into it, and can do some pretty freaky things, but I didn't enjoy it as much as they do..

What do you mean He's dead?!?!?!?!?! :mad::mad::mad::rolleyes::rolleyes::mad::mad::mad:

WE are the ones that die. God was always here and will always be here. He's our creator. Without God, we wouldn't be here! Who do you think created us? God will NEVER die, and that's a HIGHLY offensive statement btw.

Oh, and btw, the meaning of life.............from my perspective is:

To worship our Creator, who created us from nothing, gave us health, provides us with food and shelter and family, shows us mercy, and is the greatest being and Only ONE worthy of worship that exists.

Life also means to be kind to your fellow human beings, to show mercy to animals, and to love all of God's living creatures; to be just, to be considerate, to not break a promise, to be kind to the poor, to help orphans and widows, and to be a good person and do good deeds that will benefit you in both this world and in the hereafter.

That kind of thing is all a matter of opinion. I'm a strong believer in God (thought I don't go to church, read the Bible ect...) and unless your friend wrote this down to offend someone on purpose, I don't see why she/he should have gotten into trouble.
I don't think they should have done it but a suspension is a bit far. :rolleyes:

I believe he is always around but that's just my opinion. Religions and beliefs are always controversial and will always get different reactions to them.

[Kfamr]

He wasn't doing it to offend anyone, it's his opinion and he straight out told the teacher and the administrator that.

Here's a collection of dumb questions from lawyers. (hope we don't have any like them on Pet Talk!)

Actual Court Transcripts...

Just when you thought lawyers couldn't ruin their public image any more ...
Believe it or not, the following excerpts and quotes are parts of actual, real transcripts from cases that occurred in courts across the United States ...

Q: Doctor, did you say he was shot in the woods?
A: No, I said he was shot in the lumbar region.

Q: Are you married?
A: No, I'm divorced.
Q: And what did your husband do before you divorced him?
A: A lot of things I didn't know about.

Q: Doctor, how many autopsies have you performed on dead people?
A: All my autopsies have been performed on dead people.

Q: Were you acquainted with the defendant?
A: Yes, sir.
Q: Before or after he died?

Q: Did he pick the dog up by the ears?
A: No.
Q: What was he doing with the dog's ears?
A: Picking them up in the air.
Q: Where was the dog at this time?
A: Attached to the ears.

Q: When he went, had you gone and had she, if she wanted to and were able, for the time being excluding all the restraints on her not to go, gone also, would he have brought you, meaning you and she, with him to the station?
MR. BROOKS: Objection. That question should be taken out and shot.

Q: What is your relationship with the plaintiff?
A: She is my daughter.
Q: Was she your daughter on February 13, 1979?

Q: ...and what did he do then?
A: He came home, and next morning he was dead.
Q: So when he woke up the next morning he was dead?

Q: Could you see him from where you were standing?
A: I could see his head.
Q: And where was his head?
A: Just above his shoulders.

Q: Do you drink when you're on duty?
A: I don't drink when I'm on duty, unless I come on duty drunk.

Q: (Showing man picture.) Is that you?
A: Yes, sir.
Q: And you were present when the picture was taken, right?

Q: Was that the same nose you broke as a child?
A: I have only one, you know.

Q: And was he dead when you performed the autopsy?
A: No, you idiot, he was sitting up on the table wondering why I was doing an autopsy!

Hope I never need the services of any of them! :eek:

okay i always wondered:

Why do people compare life to death?
why not birth to death because truly death is oppisite of birth.. so if someone compares life to death i think there is no point.. Life are many points and birth is one important point as well as death.. so i dont think people should compare life to death cuz truly there not oppisite.;)

I once drove a pickup truck thingy in the USA, whenever I automatically reached for the gearstick with my left hand, I'd nearly open the door and fall out!

AND
you let someone with 2 items go first, and they have a discount card so that needs to be scanned, they have a frequent buyer program so that needs to be scanned, they need a price check on the second item and there are no spare staff to do it, they want to pay by credit card but it won't scan so they riffle around in their purses for ages looking for another card EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THE CASH! Why? :)

why do the manufactures put a label on a hairdryer that says do not use while asleep?

when was the last time you styled your hair in your sleep?

[kittens]

LOL because they have to cover their a**, from idiots that , I don't know, might leave it turned on and aimed at their hair? same reason why they have to say, do not use while in water!

its scary the warnings out there, if they did not have the warnings, would someone actually DO one of those things? and they are allowed out with out a keeper?!

ok another question... WHY do they make every single thing SOOO hard to open? it seems that EVERYTHING is a real pain to open. from the smallest thing to big things, food and non food. and my arthritis makes it worse but even without that it would still be hard to do. just once if I could open something without a scissors or knife!

It's funny that you mention that! When I was living at home my mom had this ancient hair dryer that consisted of a fan/motor/heater, a hose, and something that acted like a shower cap which, when turned on, blew up like a balloon. When I was going somewhere spiffy (like a dance, or something) and wanted curly hair, I'd roll my hair in curlers and dry them using this contraption. I'd often set my alarm clock for about 45 minutes and go to sleep with it on! I wonder if the manufacturer's warning had something to do with people like me! :D

11. If your sick for one week and on one of those days they had to cancel school because of snow, do you have to make up that day in June?

12. Why do dogs sniff other dog’s bottoms to say hello, why don’t they just bark in their face or something?

15. Why do all superheroes wear spandex?

One day, I could tell my son was in deep thought...so I asked him what he was thinking? He goes, "Mom, if superheros are so tough, why do they run around in panties?"

Is the pistachio flavored salad really supposed to be flavored like pistachio nuts? Who thought of that?

[Bathsheba069]

I tell ya, if I looked like a super hero, I would wear spandex! I bet they wear t-shirts and sweats at home like everyone else does, though. :D

I wonder if Superman wears a Superman t-shirt at home ....

kittens: When I was living at home my mom had this ancient hair dryer that consisted of a fan/motor/heater, a hose, and something that acted like a shower cap which, when turned on, blew up like a balloon. >>>>>

I have one of those. I got mine about 15 years ago
I think, and about 2 years ago, the motor stopped working.
I was devestated. I went on E-bay and bought another one. :)
