Who do you think it the absolute dumbest person you've ever had to deal with in your life?
A family member? A co-worker? A total stranger?
I can't recall mine exactly, so I'll steal one from a good friend of mine. He was playing a game with his girlfriend and the question was, "If you could time travel to any moment in history, what would you pick?"
Her answer: "The moon."
THE MOON.
Wow...for some reason that one always stuck with me...
Let's get to these funny stories from AskReddit users.
"My brother and in used to work as grocery baggers. One day, were working adjacent checkouts.
A customer saw us and asked if we were twins.
I answered yes and her follow up question was mind blowing.
"Are you brothers?""
"I got a concussion a while back. A friend of mine told me not to come close because it might be contagious.
They weren't kidding."
"I had a co-worker who could never figure out what time her 15 minute break was over.
We were both bank tellers."
"Ex flatmate cancelled the gas and electricity contract because it was too expensive.
Wondered why we had no more electricity nor gas. She thought we paid 90€ a month to get a hotline 24/7 in case of problem."
"I met a guy who got hit by a train.
Not that bad, but a year later he went to show his daughter where and how he got hit by the train and he got hit again."
"At the beginning of the pandemic, a friend freaked out to hear that there was a covid case an hour away (meaning someone an hour's drive away had been diagnosed).
She thought she should get in her car and drive the other direction to keep ahead of it because she thought covid, the disease, was approaching like a wave of zombies and was an hour from reaching her."
"My sister asked if the Eiffel Tower was in Paris or France and couldn't understand how it could be in both..."
"A girl I knew was complaining about her car making a weird noise. She kept bringing it to the repair shop and they kept finding that nothing was wrong with it.
So she sells her car, gets another one. She complains about the same thing. Then one day she's in the car with a friend of mine, who's driving. He veers out of the lane just a little bit and hits the rumble strip.
"That's it! That's the noise my car makes!" She says.
"What, this?" He purposely drives onto the rumble strip this time.
"Yes!" She says.
Guys, she SOLD HER CAR because the "weird noise" it was making couldn't be fixed. Her nickname was rumble strip after that."
"I was asking my friend, J, when he learned about 9/11. He started telling me this specific story of how he walked outside and saw smoke everywhere and how he asked his mom about it, he claimed she said planes hit the towers.
I stared at him, just silently taking in the story.
We live in the Midwest, there was no way he saw the debris from the towers.
Also we were born in 2003."
"In 8th grade art class we were taking about famous painter and someone brought up Michelangelo. A girl in the back said (paraphrasing) "Michelangelo isn't real, he's a turtle".
The entire class collectively face-palmed."
