I suppose it made sense to ask 150,000 people that!
the most stupid question I have ever asked was when I took my car for an MOT (my first not the car's) and the mechanic had a very strong Irish accent. He told me I needed two new ??????s I thought I had better double check what he had said so that I could tell my husband, and asked what they did, he looked at me as though I was stupid and explained that they were the black round things .....it turned out he had said two new front TYRES!
I will always remember the history teacher when she said "Artful (tho' that wasn't my name at school!), would you like to spell 'Acropolis'?" Naturally I replied "No thanyou" to hear the teacher's tone change radically "My dear, I wasn't asking you to, I was telling you to!"
A question that is not a ?, well it narks me as how are we to know it's only politeness telling us to jump off the windowledge for example!!!
When I was at school ( 35yrs ago ), in a maths lesson I wasn't giving much attention to the teacher as I didn't like maths, anyway I was jolted out of my day dream by the teacher asking me what was 15 shillings, I promptly replied " MONEY ", It was the time when decimal currency was being introduced, and the teacher wanted me to covert 15 shillings into decimal! needless to say everyone laughed including the teacher!!....... :-)
