On the London underground (subway) an American lady asked in a very loud voice..."Is this train going to London?" A friend's wife, upon being told that a movie was set in the future..."Is it a true story?"
Regardless of the fact that I myself ask this question as do most people, it isn't any dumber. When someone asks you "can I ask you something", or a similar type question, and you respond "Who, me?" Even if they ask you online or in a place where you could be the only one they are talking to.
And I still continue to see this movie in the "Documentary" sections of rental stores. Im gonna go make a "Documentary" on how the sky is green.
One morning I drove the Ferrari to work here at Lackland Air Force Base. Very low to the ground, and back when I had an unresonated flow through muffler, I roar up to the gate. Not seeing my DoD parking sticker on the bumper, the contract security guard leaned down to check my ID, and then said: "Sir, is this a Government vehicle?"
A woman asked me if Forrest Gump actually did all those things he did in the movie. A waitress in a bar pointed to the TV and asked me who the man on it was. It was then U.S. President Bush Sr, who was halfway through his term. The second one still pisses me off.
I once told a friend that I dated a girl five years older than me. He asked "is she still five years older?".
"You can leave in a taxi. If you can't get a taxi, you can leave in a huff. If that's too soon, make it a minute and a huff" -- Groucho Marx "Got a flat tire?" "No, I was driving along, and the other three just swelled up. ... Here's your sign."
I can't really remember any that my friends have said, but I made one of my good friends laugh a lot after a question I asked him. He's into King's The Dark Tower series and he mentioned that the last book of the series was pretty short. Right after he said that, I said: "How long does it even take you to read a page?" This isn't a question, but one of my friends says a lot of stupid things. One of them was: "The M3's true dual exhaust looks so cool."
You know when they put a movie on TV they have the little blurb at the beginning that says "This film has been formatted to fit your screen." An old girlfriend of mine said "How do they know what size TV we have?"
OK, Alan Webb (the US olympian in the 1500 meters) frequently practices at my high school as our high school coach was his coach in high school and is still one of his personal trainers. Alan is somewhat of a celebrity, being the hometown hero so to speak, and all the track kids know who he is. One of my friends (a blonde, imagine that) asks "That isn't Alan Webb is it, Alans Webb is black!"
"Are you going to eat that?" "Are you going to drink that?" This one drives me crazy: "Can I ask you something?"
Today at work, the person entering the inventory into the computer said, "I can't find 'void' on the inventory anywhere. Where do I enter this voided tag?" The office went silent. I finally had to explain it to her. DM
At one of those standardized tests, the proctor asked if everyone had a number 2 pencil. One girl said no because hers said "No. 2".
A girl once asked me if my car was manual or standard. Then she proceeded to ask me why my car had a third pedal.
While standing next to the back of my 308 looking at the Cavalino, a lady asks, "Is this the new Mustang?". I said, "No, it's a Ferrari and they had the little horsey first"
I was vacuuming my carpet once, and my friend Jen stumbles over. She had just smoked a few joints and was high off her a$$. She looked at the vacuum, and then squinted and looked at me, and asked, yelling over the noise of the vacuum, "Are you vacuuming?" No joke.
