I thought it would be fun to have a thread about stupid/ dumb/ funny things people say. One that always comes to mind for me is when people say:
"life is short" - life is not short, its the longest thing there is. . . :o
What else can you think of?

"Dont worry be happy"
Some teacher said that to me a few days ago
Easier said than done :rolleyes:
Erm ... something stupid I said the other day:
My boss was asking me which two dogs I wanted to have the 50% discount on. I told her Nova and Luka because Mandy is usually wealthy. :o
So ... yeah, now Nova and Luka are poor :(
No, death is much longer ;)Quote:

Just another way to make people with anxiety disorder like me or with low self-estem feel bad about themselves...I've always HATED that quote.

That is so not true. The wounds from verbal abuse are more long-lasting than physical abuse, In some cases it can take years to get over.
"Pit Bulls are time bombs."
"Let God into your life." -STOP trying to push your religion on me!!
"Oh, are you getting a puppy?" When people see me looking at dog breeders on the internet at school.
"Dalmatians are so high-strung and unpredictable, why do you have one?"
Um, first of all, he's not one, second of all, no they are not!!!
yeah but you can't think or feel or know because you are DEAD! :DQuote:

Life can end when we are least expecting it. :(
Yup, I agree with this.Quote:

"you are so tall."
now way! :rolleyes: did you think i didnt notice? that drives me crazy.
And also...
"aww your hair is so thin."
Uhh... thanks? Is that suppose to be a compliment? I find it very insulting. :o :rolleyes:
"Do you know how LONG they'll be on the phone????"
I HATE it when someone asks me that when I answer the phone at work! How the hell should I know????
"THIS IS CHICKEN!???" Said by Jessica Simpson while eating Chicken of the sea tuna! :rolleyes:
everybody wanna hear a blonde joke, would anybody be insulted?? and everyone in class lookks at me becuase i am the only real blonde in our class?
"Aren't cats cold and aloof?" :rolleyes:
We're a family of four, and if you go through a drive-thru and get 4 large sodas... and only two people are in the car...
they don't give you a drink carrier?
And when I tell everyone I'm leaving to go to Florida in a week, they say, "Really?" No people. It's all a lie to make you look stupid.
LMAO, good one!Quote:

When I'm looking for something and someone says "It will be in the last place you look"
DUH! When I find it I'm GOING TO STOP LOOKING, so even if it's the FIRST place I look it will also be the last. ;)

So what?!!!! :confused:
I am the queen of saying stupid things, so I rarely make fun of or complain about people who say stupid things.
The checker at the grocery store says, "Come back". I say, "You too!" :rolleyes: :D
Whenever I go to a docs appointment, my hubby keeps asking me: "when will you be back"?? Difficult to answer, right :rolleyes:
Years ago, when we were trying to get pregnant, some people said really stupid things, like: Well, when will you finally start having a family", and to my hubby "Do you need me to make a picture"?? :mad: :eek: :eek:
I went through 9 years of infertility Lut I know what you mean...there were a lot of really insensitive comments.
As some of you know I've been suffering from medical problems as a side effect of my birthcontrol. So yours truely has been going through one medical test after the next. My dad looks at me today after sitting there listening me to tell my mom about feeling like a pin cushion from all the pokes I've suffered from, and askes.......
You're going to a doctor for your problem right???? (no dad I'm getting poked with needles for the fun of it!) :rolleyes:
I can very much sympathize with you Lut. People can be such jerks.
*Chuckles* A few years ago, someone was chastixing one of my friends for being childfree...they asked her "Are you TRYING to get pregnant??" and she answered "Well, actually, lately we've been doing more *interesting things that won't get you pregnant but I can't post here* but maybe soon we'll start *Activity that will get you pregnant* again."
The only time I laughed so hard that I DID fall over!
Everytime i ask my brother something he says "do you want me to be honest?" or "Honestly?"
No! I want you to lie to me. :rolleyes:
Heh, I remember a George Carlin sketch about "life is short". He said, "Life is short? What the hell? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!" and goes on to say something like he'd like to see if you've done anything longer. :DQuote:

''Rats with wings'' :mad: Where is a hammer when I need one :p
This saying is stupid but I love it..on my siggy...''Life is hard....harder when your stupid''
The worst saying yet to me is.....''Hey Christina wanna see a full moon'' :rolleyes:
Some people may not get it..lets just say this moon is..a pain in the arse.
Also its stupid when girls come up to me and say ''is that a pigeon?'' there are like over 100 pigeons near each corner and there asking me this question..worse sometimes they dont even know what type of bird it is. :rolleyes:
I have a good one. "Expect the unexpected." If you expect the unexpected then it's not the unexpected anymore. It is by default the expected. You can never expect the truly unexpected.
LOL, deep, right? :D ;)
I used to love to climb trees when I was a kid. Mom would always tell me, "don't come running to me when you fall out of that tree and break your leg". :D
I hate it when people say about the corgis, "What happened to their legs??" :rolleyes: It really annoys me, I think it's rude.
My whole family (and everyone here) knows that we would have dearly loved to have another baby soon after Cali, but due to my RA have been advised not to.
Earlier this month (on my 35th Birthday) I had the following conversation with my (very annoying) FIL:
FIL: So, do you feel any older
Me: Nope, but I am tired today, as Cali had her innoculations yesterday and I was up all night with her
FIL: Ah well, you are older and wiser now, so you won't be having any more
HUH??? He has said A LOT of annoying and insensitive things over the years - but that was a prize-winner!!!
Just a couple of days ago, I was chatting to a neighbor, and mentioned how stressed I am about this move to Lagos.
Then, about the cats, I said " I am really worried about my cats too, I have a foster for Connor, but nothing definate for Ally yet"
Her response? "Oh, THAT's the least of your worries"
(Of course that's what the rest of the world thinks, but here on PT we know differently - at least you all understand!)
"Break a leg"-Never did quite understand that one.
"Is that a horse or a dog?"-Hmmm...now what do you think :rolleyes:
"Your not that old"-Well how old is that old???
When I tell people to enjoy their meal and they say "You too" :p
"Why would you do that to yourself?"
"But you'd be so much prettier without those!"
"You know those leaves scars right?"
"So you're a punk?"
"Did it hurt"?
I can tolerate most stupid people.. but when people notice my piercings, they ALWAYS say one of the above. The one that bugs me most is "Did it hurt?".. no, it didn't. I just stuck a needle through myself and thought "oh! What a pleasant feeling!" :rolleyes:
You can only have depression if something horriable has happened to you :rolleyes:
cats aren't very loving :rolleyes:
Fish don't have Feelings :mad:
