    Was called behind after Maths today;

    Teacher: Your attitude is disgusting Tom; you never do the work
    Me: I finished all the work today miss
    Teacher: But you were talking
    Me: Yeah, after I finished the work, the person I was talkin to had aswell
    Teacher: So if someone was sedated, I could kill them?


    WTF?!!
    That was 6 hours ago, I still don't get it

    "What time is it there?"

    I always reply by telling them the time an then asking "Why? What time is it there?"



    I don't know about idiotic questions other people ask though.

    People who call you on your landline and then ask 'Where are you?'.

    Where the f*** do you think I am?

    When you tell someone something shocking and they go:

    "What?"

    You then say "Did you not hear me?"

    and they say: "Obviously, thats a stupid question."

    The above is the definition of hypocritical.

    I have a confession to make. I secretly love these kinds of idiotic questions. Especially if its first thing in the morning, kinda sets me up for the day. If you get one of these little nuggets, make sure the sarcastic tone is slow so venomous it singes off all their body hair.

    No it was Micheal Crawford.

    A friend had wanted to order a dvd boxed set of Some Mothers Do Ave Em after hearing that *your man that sang Phantom of the Opera was in it.( Fathers day coming up and all that.
    She couldn't remember Crawfords name from Phantom but could remember her dad saying he loved him in Some Mothers.
    Go figure how I was supposed to get that.:confused:

    Hobbling out of A&E on crutches which has the usual gathering of village idiots.
    Village idiot: Ahhh is your leg sore? (like she was asking a three year old)
    Me: What makes you ask that?
    Village idiot: Sure you're on crutches.
    Me: Am I? Jaysus our health system is really gone to the dogs, I came in with a broken arm.

    What makes it worse is that she looked at my arm. Back to the village, idiot.

    The most idiotic question I've ever encountered is the one on the US Immigration Form.

    Q. Is it your intention to overthrow the Government
    of the United States by force?

    I agree. You can either choose yes or no. But the above is very much a "maybe" scenario; one of those "if I get thrown out of vegas for excessive use of hookers and drugs, then I might" decisions.

    I'll take the gravy on the meat & parsley sauce on the veg, thanks.

    By the way is that organic chicken you use? Is the chicken steamed? Are the veg steamed?
    I can't have any fat on the chicken or veg & they both have to be steamed, but I will accept the gravy & parsley sauce, thank you.
