stupid questions/stupid answers
 

I really am sick of dealing with stupid questions. (I swear I am not referring to anyone on this site at all...just a general feeling about life). On a daily basis, I am asked a LOT of questions. and many of them are good questions that I would expect people to ask. but honestly, there are some really stupid questions. My husband asks a ton of stupid questions. he is probably king of stupid questions. He asks me questions where the answers are completely obvious. "honey, what's this??" from the opposite end of the house. "ummm...gee...I have NO idea, why don't you show it to me and I'll help you out!" and it's usually something that one of the dogs has dragged in. well, my guess is as good as yours on that one sweetie!!

another common one he asks "what's wrong with her?" (referring to my 6 year old daughter). well...I can go and ask her what is wrong but if you are curious..why don't you go and ask her? (you have to understand, my dd is a drama queen so there is always something "wrong")

I just get really tired of him and other people asking me questions that they can find out the answer the exact same way I do.

And then I get a lot of these from other people "Why do you put shirts on your dog?? isn't she hot?" (said inside my office building on a 60 degree day when she has a t-shirt on) Well...she seems to be completely comfortable and not bothered by it...so what is your point again??

maybe I am just pms'ing but I am really tired of it. I think I will start giving people stupid answers when they ask stupid questions.

See, us woman are supose to know everything LOL - i hear you, sometimes it can get to us.

Mandy, sometimes it MORE than gets to us. When I get asked stupid questions like that I just want to scream. Maybe that's what you should do Toodles, don't answer...just scream. I usually just ignore my husband's stupid questions and when he asks why I didn't answer him...I just look at him and tell him to figure it out. I write everything on the calendar and he will still say...I didn't know that was today.....boy toodles, you've started me going.....LOLOL

LMAO!!! Janet i know.... LOL .... i was trying to stay nice about it hahahahaha - you caught me out! :yelrotflmao:

Just pretend you did NOT hear those stupid questions, take a deep breath and walk away LOL

I love the "where are you going ?" "to the store" "what store" "why do you need something" "no" "why do you need to know what store" "cause I might need something" "What store do you need something from, I'll stop there" "never mind, I'll go get, don't worry" "So why did ya bring it up"

After 13 years, its the same stores. Why do they ask?

My husband and I will sit down to watch TV together and turn it on in the middle of a movie and it never fails that my husband will ask me, " So what's going on?" Duh, I've seen as much of the movie as he has!!!

Or I'll be at the very end of a movie and he'll sit down and want me to explain the whole movie for him. Why, so he can follow the last 5 minutes of it?

Mine does that all the time!!

Well, I guess either I have A LOT of patience or I am the stupid one LOL! I don't get bothered by stupid questions..I will usually will give them a look and say
What did you ask me? Then they realize they could have figured it out themselves.
A teacher once told me that the only stupid question is the one that is not asked.

So true Brenda, but then again...your teacher probably never met my husband!!!

LOL!:sidesplit:

Janet, you crack me up!!!!:lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

When I read this post I couldn't help but laugh...I was just talking to my DD the other day when she said she was trying to find the opportune time to use the bathroom ....trying to be discreet....she has a live in boyfriend.....she slips in when he's occupied with the neighbor.....then it comes... the tapping on the door :eek: & then the stupid ?..."What are you doing in there?" :rolleyes: ...she yelled back..."Get away!!!... What the h*ll do you think I'm doing!!"....she was so embarrassed to come out...I cracked up when she told me this....

LOLOLOL!!! This is my husband.

"Dang it, Drew!...I'm goin' to the grocery store, and I would have been there and back by now if you'd just stop interrogating me!"

LOL this thread is cracking me up!!!! I have to say i think my Hubby is the king of stupid questions!! he does the movie thing where he asks what's going on i'll be doing something that he can see plain as day and he'll ask me what i'm doing. when something is going on and i don't really know either he asks me what's going on it's like i know as much as you do i hate stupid questions my whole family is like that it drives me insane and yes i do scream when they ask them lol

You all are....
 

just too funny I think I'm gonna really like this board this thread has me cracking up!:)

WOW....do all men do this? my hubby does too and so does my bff's boyfriend! how annoying!!!!!!!

LOL! Janet, you always make me smile (or laugh). Too funny! :sidesplit:

ha! what gets me is my dear hubby at times..ok alot of times does this annoying thing like he didn't hear or understand what I said then out of nowhere he answers my question anyways... I'll say something like " was that a blue shirt?" and he will say... "huh" and then 1/2 a second later answer me ... "yes it was a blue.." WHAT THE HECK!

OMG can I SOO relate!

I will be in the kitchen making a meal... in walks hubby... who is hard of hearing, with dd on his heals. She will start telling us some story and hubby is getting coffee, pouring milk into it, etc. Finally hubby will turn to me and ask IN MID STORY "What is she talking about?" My response is "ASK HER!"
He seems to think my voice is the only one he can hear. I think if he'd pay attention rather than doning out, she wouldn't have to repeat herself. ARGGGG

or

Hubby will spread his paperwork out on the kitchen table, insist on quiet so he can concentrate to do it... then leave half of if laying there. So naturally after he leaves (drives off in his semi for several days on the road) we need the table and his paperwork gets put away. So at the end of the week he comes home and gets all riled up because it's not on the table where he left it! HE won't have used the table for 5-6 days, so seems to think we won't either! "

Where is it? Why was it moved? Do we do this just to drive him insane?" Sadly it's the same thing every week!

Sounds like you have your hands full. lol.

Haha, people ask me about if I think my yorkie is hot in shirts too. Agh.

How about this one....do your husbands tell you everything they are going to do? This drives me up a freaking wall!!! I am busy all day and part of the evening with chores or things that I just want done, but I don't annouce it everytime I do something. My hubby will say "well, I'm going to go change the oil in the van", then later will say, "I'm going to go burn up some of that trash."

If I announced everything I did around here, I'd never get anything done! It's like he wants recognition or something, but no one ever acknowledges what I do, unless it's something that didn't get done like laundry...LOL MEN, YA CAN'T LIVE WITH THEM AND YA CAN'T SHOOT 'EM!!!! LOL

Janet, that sounds so familiar. LOL
And to make it even MORE annoying, hubby has to show me the bucket of dirty water after he's mopped a floor... or the paper towel after he cleaned the car windows. I have to see the amount of grime removed! Like he got off WAY more dirt than anyone else in recorded history would have been capable of. LOL

LOL, very well put. :sidesplit:

Oh Tink, you have your hands full! Might be an idea to give him hes personal "paper work box" that he can keep for all hes things, that way its all in place, and no one will touch it.

Yup, men :rolleyes: they will never "get it"

My husband can ask some very annoying questions too! Like I can say "the ______ isn't working". He'll say "what do you mean it's not working?" That one annoys me more than anything!

I think the thing that annoys me most about my husband is just when he says "huh" or "what" and I have to repeat something when in my opinion he "should have" heard me the first time. lol. It's minor but can be frustrating sometimes.

I have a new one today. How about this "we were both watching the news about the hydrogen cars. They were talking about how if releases only a little water into the air.

After it was over, he proceeded to tell me all about the benefits of the hydrogen car, like I did just watch the same thing he did????


What's up with that!

Ha! My husband would get the biggest laugh out of reading this thread....he knows guys are like this. LOL.

It's like when we went out to dinner and I wore a new pair of heels and the heel on my right sandal broke off....and I was of course upset. Hubby said he didn't know what the problem was, why couldn't I just break off the other heel and keep wearing them?

(I think I posted about this already though....it's pretty much the dumbest thing he's ever said so matter of fact-ly. to. date.) :p But, I love him.

Ohhhhh i love it when im telling my husband a whole story, i can tell by the look on hes face that hes thinking "what are you talking about" :eek:

lol, that look cracks me up!

LOL.. sometimes he makes me wonder if hes seen an alien lmao!

These posts are hilarious! When I was married, I would get up from bed while we were watching tv to go to the bathroom, and each and every time my then husband would look shocked and ask me "Where are you going?" in an amazed tone of voice. I would think up ridiculous answers each time - like "I need to get the car washed. See ya later."

He also was hard of hearing and my daughter and I would have to repeat ourselves so often, that I began to ignore him and not repeat myself., Hahaha - it drove him crazy!
