…on the THING for the Week of

10/21/2007 & 10/28/2007

:




Is there such a thing as a stupid question? Give an example or explain why not.



message: yes,if someone says they’re going somewhere and someone else says “Where do they think they’re going?” that is a stupid question,is it not?
name: anonymous

message: no question is stupid because the person asking might have no knowledge about what is asked and might want to know. it might sound stupid to the person asked though, but it might be an innocent question from an innocent mind. for instance, a four year old may ask, “daddy,are you a boy or a girl?”.

message: The only stupid question is the one asked without
checking for the answer in the mind of the questioner first.
Stupidy and laziness may be more intertwined than I realised
before writing this sentence.

message: Yes there is and one would be that say after a teacher or
someone introduces themselves by stating their name: then you
could ask them whta their name was and that would be a stupid
question.

message: there is no such thing as stupid questions because if
you don’t no the answer that’s why you ask so you can find out
the answer.

message: Totally! There is such a thing as a stupid question. But
it depends on age and level of education. If a twenty five year
old says “What’s 2+1?” and are serious, it’s a dumb question and
makes them completely unintelligent. Not that i’m brainy, but
come on people!!
Or, my friend Tuesday has these little clips that have horns,
like devil horns, and when she wears them her long brown hair
covers the clip part of it. BUT, when she wears them people ask
her, and honestly want to know, if the horns are connected to her
head… Just stop and think for a second… She didnt have them
yesterday, so… did they grow over night? or are you just a
moron? Sorry, but I think there are some realy idiotic questions
out there, and the people who say them are even more dumb.

message: yes!!! there totally is the world has tons of stupid
questions like for the past week I have had a ton of blonde
moments actually I have had them my whole life because I am a
blonde but this week I have had more like, Today we were studying
for an exam and we were playing a review game then I asked could
we use our notes everyone started laughing and today I also asked
someone if they had fun at the bowling ring Then as soon as I
asked I was like duhhh its not a bowling ring its a bowling alley
and then I wish I wouldn’t of asked so…. yea theres a bunch of
stupid questions

message: No, because some people just might not know something.
For example maybe someone hasn’t learned something yet and the
rest of the students have. It wouldn’t be stupid to ask the
teacher “How do you do that” or “I don’t know how to do
that.Could you explain that to me?” JUst some people are a little
behind than others.
