Some lttle kid in my school walked up to me and seriously asked: "are you cool?"
And i had very long hair and glasses at the time.... And broken jeans.... How can you even consider that cool.

A few days ago I had to explain to someone how to send an email. They were convinced that they couldn't do it because they had AOL at home and the computer they were using didn't, even after I showed them the mail link on aol.com.

So yes, tiredness is a huge factor in "stupidity".

Quite true. You should see me code when I'm tired.

That's happened to me a few times.

Also, whenever I wear my "Nintendo Tech Support" t-shirt, people think I actually work for Nintendo Tech Support.

I'll agree with that. Asking redundant questions pisses me off so much, that I'm often tempted to completely ignore them. Another thing is when I was playing Mario Kart in my school's hall with one of my friends, and this ugly girl who likes me (who I don't know and don't plan to know) comes up and asks why I was not playing games with her. I calmly (and with a hint of that "I don't care, leave me alone" tone) reminded her that she doesn't have any games. Harsh? Yes. Do I regret it? No.

Well, that one's still understandable though.
My girlfriend bought some clothes from a huge store in the city, and her clothes just happened to kinda match their work uniforms.

Check-out Chick: "Hi. Just finish work?"
Jayde: "...No"
C-o C: "Oh! Well, would you like a bag?"
J: "Nah, it'll be alright"
C-o C: "You sure??"
J: "Yeah, it's fine"
C-o C: "Well, see you tomorrow! "

Women in line: "Are you mormon?"

Me standing in front of her: "No, why?"

Woman: "Because you're so clean and white."

WTF?!?

Was she talking about my skin or my clothes?

Sometimes people are tired and aren't really paying attention to what you're really saying. I find that waiters and waitresses are among the most tired people I meet. You shouldn't really blame them, they're trying to do their job.

Some lady: Wow! Is that an I-pod?
Me: Hehe... no it's an mp3 player but you were close!
Some lady: So is it the same?
Me: Not exactly but it works well for me.
Some lady: Does it play music?
Me: ...Yes?

A friend of mine from Texas once asked me "do y'all have the same moon over there?" (over there being Europe). I told him "no, our moon blew up. We had this accident while conducting this experiment and the whole thing went BOOM". He replied "wow, that must be weird, not having a moon to look at at night."...

I still can't get over that. I mean, the European unlucky moon experiment was all over the news. Surely he should have had heard of it?

One of my male coworkers asked me why I had a box of maxi pads in my office. I'm obviously female and obviously past puberty. I was stunned for a second and then I started going on about "You see, when girls become a certain age, things start happening to their body!" in a singsongy teacher voice.

After he left, my male office mate and I lawled about the incident for a good while. Seriously, how can you get to be twentysomething without knowing what pads are for, especially when you've been in long-term relationships with women?

Her: "Michael Myers... Is he the basketball player?"

Then I'd show the halloween case.

Her: "A Jason movie! Oh my god, I love those!"

Then I'd point to Michael Myers picture on the back.

Her: "Jason!"



Me: "That's Michael Myers. Blondes."

Her: "Hey!"

She hits me. Hard.

"Does the square root of 2 equal 2?"

"How do you spell stupid?" (I was so tempted to respond with "R-Y-A-N" which is his name)

"How big is the 30GB ipod?"

"Prove me right!"
"Why?"
"Because you can't!"

Yes, that was a beautiful conversation. Almost as nice as when somebody told me that Smash Bros. was better on the SNES, because back then, "it was a classic".

Friend: I need to go to the school bank, but it takes to long to get there.
Me: Why don't you run there?
Friend: But that's even farther!

A friend: Hey, What are you doing right now?

Mind you, this was at 4 in the morning, you can only guess what I was doing at that hour.

Stupidest thing someone said to me was "I love you"

Then not actually mean what they say.

Oh, and this one is a classic.

The "I'm going to tell you something but don't get mad"

What the hell. Just tell me instead of giving me that extra minute or two to worry and wonder what is so bad that needed to have a warning before being spoken.

Honestly.



Now that's just wrong!!

Still, it was pretty bad how in the UK, a certain news station put up subtitles for the Australian prime minister's speech.
His voice is just plain ugly and annoying anyway!
