Some people really are a bit stupid.............

I have had a guy contact me today through ebay about a Vision Of Disorder CD i am selling, Here is what he said : "You say it's an album, which implies vinyl, but the picture looks like a cd. Is it on vinyl or cd?".

That is a bit of a stupid thing to say really, and i replied thus : "Hi, an album is a full length release, which can be either CD or vinyl. As i have listed it the ebay CD catagory, and also in my shop under CDs, and as you so astutely observed, the picture is of a CD, i think it is fair to say, chances are this is a CD!!!!"

Other stupid things i have been asked include (while working in my butchers shop):
Have your pork ribs got bones in them?!!!!!
Do u have chicken suitable for vegetarians???
How do u cook sausages?
Is your Danish salami british?
Is your pork dripping very fatty????


DUMB BASTARDS!!!!!!!

What stupid things have you been asked????

Hahaha, fuckinell!

One guy in work once asked me how many planets there are. I told him there are 9 in our solar system, then he proceeded to tell me that I'm wrong and there's only one planet. Then I told him that every star probably has planets orbiting them, to which he told me I was wrong again.

Stupid people are funny.

When I was working in WHSmith, there was one day where they were understaffed and I had to run both the books and multimedia section. When I went back to a multimedia section, a woman came out from behind the counter with a stack of expensive filo faxes she had taken. She looked at me as I saw her come out from behind the counter. Then as I went back behind the counter and prepared to say something to her and ask her what the hell she was doing, she made the first move.

She came up to me and said: "I haven't got the receipt, but can I have a refund on these please?"

Now, whilst that isn't a stupid question in itself, once reading what the situation was you can see she was obviously a very retarded woman. Hilariously, my manager was also nearby, so pretending I was a silly man just to join in the fun I told her I'd just ask the manager if that was okay. Then quietly I told him she was an idiot theif and he told her to get out or he'll call the police. She looked at me and said "Did you see me take anything?" And I replied, "Erm... yes."

What an hilarious situation that was.

I just remembered the stupidest thing I've ever been asked.

I was driving home from work on a Friday night. I had my full work gear on; Green work pants covered in all kinds of dust and shit, a Polo shirt with the company name on, a beanie hat with the company name one, and a High Visibility vest. I got pulled over by a cop and he asked, "Have you been drinking"... Yeah, I fucking go to the pub wearing scruffy work clothes because that's what the birds look for in a man. Stupid cops.

When I was at Smiths someone asked me if they could have a discount on a newspaper because the front page was ripped... we literally had stacks more right in front of her. A discount. On a 30 pence newspaper.

Jon, remember that old man who used to ask for all the supliments to be taken out of the telegraph and swore at everything then apologised. And the bird man. Haha. Spastics.

I also got stopped on the street once by someone doing a questionnaire on fashion. That was a stupid thing to be asking me...

I used to work in Woolworths, and for some reason I was often asked "Where are the batteries?". I know this doesn't sound like a dumb question, but bear in mind that around 80% of the time, the person asking the question was standing right in front of the battery stand. Said stand had a three-foot-long scale mock-up of an AA battery at the top
I'm going to
Tear your fuckin' eyes out,
Rip your fuckin' flesh off,
Beat you 'till you're just a fucking lifeless carcass,
Fuck you and your progress,
Watch me fucking regress,
You were made to take the fall,
Now you're nothing!!

I cried.

A former friend of mine, disowned when I came to the decision that dumbasses weren't worth my time, once asked "What time's the ten-to bus get here?"

OMG i worked in woollies and every fucking day id get the same question, mostly people would be standing with their backs to the stand and I'd reply if you'd like to turn around sir/madam you will find them, but one day i just go fed up and said, " why the fuck do you people ask me the same dumb questions every day, how about you use your eyes before asking dumb ass!" then i realized id actually just said all of that in my head and i was staring at him blankly. so i proceeded to point without saying a word and later my manager had a "word" with me about my conduct with customers!!!! god i miss working there :wall:
