Super User Sam Posted July 7, 2012 Super User Posted July 7, 2012 Yesterday I went to the bank to deposit some client checks into the business account and gave the checks and deposit slip to the teller. The teller asked me if I wanted to deposit the checks? OK, being a nice guy I bit my lip and said, politely, "yes." But did that teller open the door for a comeback or what? I thought of other times when it is easily apparant to others as to what you are doing but they ask anyway. Like the time I went to the BP station to fill up the boat and SUV to go fishing. Rods and reels on the deck. I am dressed for fishing. And a lady asks me "are you going fishing?" Now I could have come back with a smart aleck reply, but all I said was "yes mam." So have you had any people ask you a question when the answer is staring them in the face? And you had to be polite but wished you could come back with a stinger? Just wondering. Quote

Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted July 7, 2012 Super User Posted July 7, 2012 Yup. Happens all the time. 9 times out of 10 they get a snarky response. I've found if your not mean with the snarkiness, generally they laugh and smile. Often times it leads to some nice conversation. Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted July 7, 2012 Super User Posted July 7, 2012 kinda like the Jeff Foxworthy heres your sign stuff. Iv had a few well here ill be walking to the gym gloves and drink in hand and get asked "going to the gym?" or ill be in the gym doing curls "arms day?" walking up the ramp to the chow hall "going to chow?" Signing out with the harbor master fishing poles in hand he asks it every time "going fishing today George?" the one time i answered him back " no just felt like walking the 3 miles with all this **** in 110* weather to sign your clipboard I might be famous some day you could sell my signature" he just laughed and agreed it was hot out. the fishing ones always the greatest or hunting it almost never fails your walking with fishing poles and some one always asks "going fishing?" or pull into the gas station for coffee on the way to the woods dressed in camo and a truck full of other guys in camo "You guys going hunting" feel like saying no were redneck ninja's with shot guns.

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted July 8, 2012 Global Moderator Posted July 8, 2012 I don't know how many times I'll be at the gas station putting gas in the boat and truck and someone will ask "going fishing?" Now if I was pulling a fish and ski or pontoon I could give them the benefit of the doubt but when I'm pulling a 16' aluminum with 2 depthfinders on it and rods sticking out everywhere, a bow mount foot control trolling motor and a bunch of tackle? Come on man. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted July 8, 2012 Super User Posted July 8, 2012 I was getting gas in the boat just the other day, when the guy the next pump over, probably just being nice, ask's " Heading to the lake?" me, being the DB I am, said " No, I tow this around all the time just in-case I drive into a flood ." He cuckled, and probably realized what an a-hole I am and drove off. 1 Quote

That stuff is like liquid crack. 1 Quote
Fat-G Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Lmao. That's awesome. Somebody asking me if I want Cuban coffee. I mean really?! HELL YES I WANT SOME! What a stupid question! That stuff is like liquid crack. Agreed, that's gold ww2! Cuban coffee is incredible. I hate stupid people. I hate stupid questions. A lady at work yesterday asked if I worked there, when I was clearly sitting at a desk with a shirt that said "Pool Monitor", a clipboard, first-aid kit, throw bouy, and back brace. I just replied "I hope so mamn, I would hate to sit here and not get payed." I actually get pretty peeved when people ask really stupid questions, heck, even stupid people tick me off. I overheard a conversation the other day about the TV show "The First 48", the lady was saying how she was watching the show and had the realization that stuff like that ACTUALLY happens. NO ****!

They are. Tell them to focus in on your head. Lights, camera, action. Is it hot outside in Texas? 1 Quote
Super User Lund Explorer Posted July 8, 2012 Super User Posted July 8, 2012 My all time favorite is when someone knows I've been hunting and they ask me "Did you catch anything?" I normally answer that everything was running soooooo fast, I just decided to shoot them! Quote

Captain Obvious Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 kinda like the Jeff Foxworthy heres your sign stuff. Just a heads up Jeff Foxworthy is "You might be a redneck...." Bill Engvall is "Here's your sign..." For example "You might be a redneck if you know the difference between a Jeff Foxworthy and Bill Engvall joke" 1 Quote

Nice_Bass Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 "Feel like getting a beer?" of course I do, but you should ask me: can you get away from work, family and everything else to go out and get a beer? I am coming up on 30 pretty quick, and starting to feel it. Quote
Super User Lund Explorer Posted July 10, 2012 Super User Posted July 10, 2012 Have you ever wondered why street signs come in different shapes and colors? Years ago the Secretary of State had an office right across the hall in our building. So here I'm sitting on MLK Day and watch this guy walk in, rattle the glass door to their office, peer into the completely darkened room, stand back and read the sign "We're closed for MLK Day". He rattles the door a second time, and then peers through the glass door again. As he is about to give up, he sees me and opens my office door. "The Secretary of State closed today?" he asked. "Yes." I replied, "Someone will be here on Tuesday to read the test to you!" 1 Quote
