Some unsual questions you've been asked

WoollyRedHat

I wasn't asked this, but my cousin was in a cinema with her friends and this cultchie/scanger asked them " Have you ever done it in a wheelbarrow?"

Obviously some fetish some people must have!

This is my fav.

A guy I know was waiting for the Dart at Blackrock, (FYI right beside the sea.) Anyway this old lady leaned over the wall and started calling down to a swan:

Old lady: "What are you doing? Where's the other one? You know swans are ment to mate for life? Why did you kill it? What's wrong with you."

She then turns to my friend and askes him if his name is Bridget.

I want to meet that woman. Epic.

EDIT: Or "ledge" as they would say in those parts... :rolleyes:

Not technically an unusual question though. Lock this thread.

A friend of mine asked me one day "Do you go through the gate or over the wall?" Confused I asked him what he was going on about. Turns out he was referring to underwear and was asking if I use the exit provided ("through the gate") - I don't.

About 20 years ago in England a guy asked me if I minded the British Army tanks driving around the streets of Dublin. It appeared that he hadn't got a full grasp of the situation as it was then.

I said 'hello' to someone once and they said 'what part of America are you from?'
I was registering for my degree in NUIG at the time.... I was like 'huh?...eh Ireland...this one...'

Riddle101

Was sitting on a bus wearing my (RDF) Unifrom and this blond women walks up to me and say 'why are you wearing that uniform, are you in the army or something'

I told her. Nah i'm actually in the gardai, this is just my away kit.

Not funny but i was thinking of soccer at the time and it was the only thing that came to my head

Mate of mine was eating in a local chinese back in Donegal and upon finishing his meal the owner gave them a couple of courtesy beers. Anyway he then proceeds to produce e3,000 cash in an envelope and beckons my mate to sign a form saying that he will "sponsor" a chinese guy to get a visa in Ireland and that's the last of it as far as he would be concerned, the guy will work in Dublin for an "associate."

Naturally he refused and handed back the beers, left it at that.....

A guy from California asked me a few months ago if we spoke English in Ireland?

Idiot.

I was asked by an American if it was weird seeing women with only two boobs...

Apparently someone had convinced him that the girl with the superfluous knocker from Total Recall was Irish and that all Irish women have three boobs.
:eek:

I couldn't bring myself to tell him. I said something about it being different but I'm getting used to it. I have never laughed so hard in my life.

I got asked that in California too. How come you guys speak such good English? Did you learn it in school? We were with a bunch of Americans and they all started laughing at this girl too, so I guess it was just her. Apparently she was considered really smart and was doing some high-powered degree. It's more ignorance than stupidity I suppose but, come on!

"Do you dye your hair?"

I have been asked this more times than I should! Because my hair is so naturally jet black like Hitler's heart I get the odd few who question me about it. Should take it as a compliment I suppose..............or some sort of trick question to find out if I'm a metrosexual :mad:

"If you weren't related to your sister, would you do her?"

Heard this years ago from some idiot who was drunk and obviously fancied the other guy's sister

"Is Athlone a county?"

I've been asked this by SO many women in my life, where the hell do they get that idea from, the back of fake tan boxes!?!

Fizman

I was in Wildwood, New Jersey on a J1 a few years back. While strolling along the street trying to find somewhere to get my hair cut, i noticed a heavy guy walking towards me (sweating profusely). He stopped and asked if I knew the area. I said not really as im just over on a summer long trip (assuming he was looking for directions or something).

He then started looking me up n down, and asked if he could take a picture of my feet!!! "You have real nice feet" he said!! "I'll give you $10 if I can take a picture of your feet"!.

Normally i'm pretty fast with responses but this guy caught me completely off guard lol! (By the way.....he didn't have a camera on him so God only knows what he wanted to do/where he wanted to go). I said thanks but no thanks, but there is a beach about 100 metres that way and there are lots of real nice feet down there, you'll find some to snap there surely. He said ok and turned away with a look of huge disappointment

!

Being a poor student at the time I should have said he can take a picture of both feet for $30 or something

Only in america! :rolleyes:

My dad was asked by an American on another forum where they could eat on a Sunday in Ireland because all the restaurants and pubs are closed on Sunday.

Honestly, I don't know where they get these ideas.

DubArk

A few years ago I got a round the world ticket and a mate asked me was it one way or return???

Whilst living and working in New York this guy called John Kennedy (Plastic Paddy) asked me where I was from I told him Ireland/Dublin and he asked did I get the subway home? Bless!!

I was explaining to my cousin how she could put photos on a memory card and hand it in to get them developed,
It was a 2gb mem card and I had mentioned that she could fit a load of photos on it but didnt need to have it full to hand it in to get them developed,
and she wanted to know if she would be charged for all the "blank photos" on the memory card if she didnt fill it with her photos. :rolleyes:

Just been stopped 20 minutes ago on Shop St. in Galway by two overweight American tourists.

"Excuse me, honey! Does the bus to Salthill come down this street?" (This on a street which is thronged with pedestrians, with not a vehicle in sight.)

"I'm afraid not, it's a pedestrian zone. You can get the bus at Eyre Square or at Spanish Arch" (basically the two ends of the zone, for those not familiar with Galway).

"Oh! (confused pause) ... So it doesn't come down here then?"

"Em ... no. But it's only about 100 yards either way!"

This was my attempt to be cheerful and encouraging. The look of horror which appeared on both their faces, you would think I had just told them they would have to walk home to America!! At this stage I had to mutter an excuse and go, or I would have burst out laughing in their faces.

As I walked away, I could hear one wail loudly to the other: "You would think the bus would go down the main street!!"

A workmate came out with this gem:

"Adam, did you ever just, like, forget to stop walking?"

I misread that the first time and it was so much funnier ...

Also funny that Shop St. is the 'main street'! (Because it's sh!te!)

Overheard someone asking his mate for a tip in the bookies last week. He was told to put his shirt on Clothesline to which the guy began to scan the screens looking for a price

Asked on here a couple of weeks ago do I shave my pubes. I won't name names but you know who you are.

mise_me_fein

This is not really a funny question but I hate getting asked it by Brits.

Where are you from?

Ireland.

Oh, north or south?

Why the fcuk does it matter. I just tell them, there´s no difference. I´m never going to say I´m from Southern Ireland.
