Ask Stupid Questions!

Don't be afraid to ask.    According the calendar of Bizarre American Holidays, today is "Ask a Stupid Question Day." 

    So, in the comments, please ask a stupid question.  You never know; I may even try to answer them somewhere down the line.  Just remember that when you ask a stupid question, you get a stupid answer.

    Now, I know this universal truism flies in the face of the belief that there is no such thing as a stupid question; however, we all know that is simply a tactic used by various educators, clueless bosses, and Supreme Court Justices so as to weed out and identify the stupid people among us in order to more easily exploit their stupidity in the future.  After all, do you know how hard it is to get someone who's smart to do something utterly stupid without the assisstance of a LOT of alcohol?  It's easier to find a fart in a bag of nails, I think.   

    Anyway, leave a stupid question in the comments.  And, if you need help with that, leave a comment and I'll send you the instructions, okay? 

-DP 

**UPDATE**  To answer Nancy's stupid question:

Hey...aren't ya gonna show the questions (and some answers) in another entry??

    Yes.  I will answer any and all stupid questions.  I'm hoping to have them compiled and posted by Sunday.

  6. This entry was made for US Customs, I get to spend all day answering stupid questions - "what is a book made of" or even better they regularly ask for a better description of something, the other day they asked for better description of "used guitar"...why people send anything to the USA is beyond me.....so my stupid question is - why is US Customs staffed by people who couldn't find their arse with a map?

  7. How come so many intelligent people believe that gravity creates 12 personality clones for each month?  

    Personally, I think that is ripping away at the potential variety amongst billions of people over the centuries..what a way to dog your believes and hear I thought I was unique. I had no idea that an invisible force could form me in the womb. Cool...RLOL - Raven

    How can there be "self-help" groups?

    Who opened the first oyster and said "My, my, my! Now doesn't this look yummy!!"

    Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here and drink whatever comes out?"

    Who was the first person to see an egg come from a chicken's butt and think, "I'll bet that would be good to eat?

    Can a fat person go skinny-dipping?
