I seem to be a magnet for rather boneheaded ideas. I think i heard one today which took the cake... a co-worker asked my opinion on, and wanted to see if i'd become her business partner, in developing her new idea.

Her big idea? Jewelry for cats :eek:



So, what's the most absolutely innane, harebrained idea anyone has ever voiced to you?

Stupidest question anybody's ever asked me:

Have you been to math yet?

This was asked to me in eighth grade, and all the eighth graders had their electives first and second period, and core classes started third period. The two main reasons why it's stupid are: nobody had been to math yet, and the girl who asked was in my math class.

a question I was asked by one of my friends ranks among the stupidest

we were working out and my friend went to weigh himself on the digital scale. He comes back and asks, "when i have both feet on the scale, I weigh 135, but I weigh 135 if I stand on one leg and lift the other one up. why's that?"

i was just shocked to hear something so stupid come out one of MY friends
:eek:

An American guy I was talking to at a Party asked me what language we spoke in England (he was serious, and yes he went to College!). I told him German.

(okay its not an idea but its as dumb as it gets)
