People Share 40 Stupid Questions They Got Asked For Real That Made Them Facepalm

“They say "There's no such thing as a stupid question." The phrase implies that the quest for knowledge includes failure and the fact that you know less than others must not prevent you from learning.
But whether or not you think it's true, I think we can agree that sometimes people present their questions in such a funny way, you don't know if you should just laugh or answer them seriously.”

Waited on a woman who asked me what kind of meat was in our beef taco salad.
Lady: what kind of meat is in your beef taco salad?
Me : Beef
L: what kind of beef?
Me: Beef, ground beef seasoned with taco seasoning.
L: No, I mean is it pork or chicken?
Me: Ma’am, it’s beef, it’s from a cow. It’s beef.

A woman asked me if gorilla glue was made from real gorillas. I laughed at first, but she was serious.
She told me she was vegan and wouldn't use the product if it was made with real gorillas.

One of my co-workers asked our black boss that one day. He had bought some sun-screen and she asked why he would need it.

He got a whimsical look on his face and smiled and said "yes, we get sunburns too" Very kind he was.
