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.

L: what kind of beef?
Me: Beef, ground beef seasoned with taco seasoning.
L: No, I mean is it pork or chicken?
Me: Maam, its beef, its from a cow. Its beef.

She told me she was vegan and wouldn't use the product if it was made with real gorillas.

(62,406 posts)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.
