I know parents like to ask you about your day and they 'enjoy' hearing what you did at school, but don't you ever feel so damn taciturn that every single thing they ask irks you so much that you feel like strangling them? Or when you're in class and the teacher's teaching the day's lesson. Teacher: "Sponges belong in Phylum Porifera" and some idiot kid asks 10 minutes later, interrupting the teacher, Kid: "Wait, what? What phylum are sponges in?" He's all trying to be funny but it's so retarded it's just idiotic. That's not what really pisses me off though. Today was the first day of summer school (for Physical Education...) and my mom came and picked me up. She was just asking all these retarded questions like, "What do you have on your schedule?" (What the hell? You paid for one class. What else would I have on my schedule.) Or, "What's your second period?" (Goddammit wtf? YOU PAID FOR ONE CLASS, I DON'T HAVE A SECOND PERIOD). And then, I hate people who ask useless questions. Questions that have no point or just questions that are non sequitur. Like for instance, "Was your teacher male or female?" (What the hell does that have to do with anything?) or, "Was your teacher black or white?" (That is totally irrelevant. Are you suggesting that ethnicity makes a difference?) Or for instance questions about routine. Like, I've been going to school for a freaking 11 years. There is a routine to how school's do things and it is the same each year. My mom always asks me the same questions every single year. Asking, "What'd you do on the first day?" Blah blah, (Yes, I picked up my schedule..like every year...) OR, I hate when my I give my mom some sort of school form that she has to read and after she's done "reading" it, she'll hand it back to me and ask what it is. -.-; That is so annoying. You just read it, is your memory so poor that you cannot remember what you read 2 minutes ago? Or do you just enjoy pissing me off? I know there are certain questions asked that are idiot questions....but if the person doesn't know before hand, it's not a stupid question. Asking about things you know is stupid and retarded ::shakes fist angrily:: Just, idiot questions that make me waste my breath on something useless pisses me off. I'm a really quiet person and I don't like talking a whole lot, but honestly...People say there are no stupid questions, but jeez....

Wheather you like it or not, nobody is perfect and nobody is going to act the way you want them to act so just accept them because it's not wrong that they don't know the answer to a question just discussed. Maybe they have a learning disability or something. Who cares. I suggest that you just chill out because this stress about other people is only going to bring you down. Stress pretty damaging both mentally and physically so just take a breather when you feel the stress coming on. Life is too short to worry about all the little things.

Stress pretty damaging both mentally and physically so just take a breather when you feel the stress coming on. Life is too short to worry about all the little things. Did I say anything at all about those with learning disabilities? No I didn't. I did not say anything about questions among those with disabilities. How did you infer that? No where in my post did I say anything about the way people act. I said nothing about people's personalities or the way they act. Even if I did say something about that, I wouldn't want them to change just for me, because I'm not that big of an idiot. I wouldn't even bother talking about it. So, how did you infer that (2)? Where, anywhere, did I say this was stressful for me? Nowhere! I don't know where you're getting your information, but you're posting in the wrong topic. And again, how did you infer that I was stressed (3)? And by the way, if you were referring the "learning disabilities" part to my little story about the kid asking the biology question, something you might want to know: this kid is one of the smartest kids I know with nothing to hinder his 'ability to learn'. He did it to be an idiot. Don't say anything if you don't know what you're about. So again, I never mentioned anything about learning disabilities. Oh, and another thing. This is the Vent topic. If you're going to spew that crap at me, you might as well do it in every single topic in this forum.

I dunno, maybe it's cos the way you're coming across through your writing style. Have to say, I got a picture of somebody wound quite tight while reading your posts. But then it is very easy to misinterpret tone from what someone has written on a message board. As for the topic of your vent, with regards to 'stupid questions' from your parents, here's a news flash from someone who's a bit older than you: as you get older, the harder it is to keep a track of everything going on in your life. So while you think somebody must be stupid for not remembering something you told them yesterday or the previous year or whenever, I can relate to that mindset cos I know how thinking about mortgage repayments, or paying your rates, or sorting out your tax return, or getting your super changed over, or having to fix a leaking tap, or having to deal with whatever crap your boss might be throwing at you this week, or having to take your dog to the vet, or trying to book a holiday, all at the same time (and I don't even have kids) can sometimes mean that other things slip your mind. I think I'm a pretty well organised person and like to think I don't ask too many 'stupid questions', but I know for a fact that I don't have as good a memory for everything as I did when I was at school/uni. So I guess what I'm trying to say is, before you flame somebody for something they've done that upsets you, you should always try and see things from their point of view.

Maybe the people who are asking these stupid questions are trying to make a conversation. Maybe you should try and continue it.

My mother does the same thing also. She asks about what I did in school and I'm expected to give a thorough reply. Asking me questions I guess is all right but I hate it when she fusses and asks more questions about my answers. Sometimes it works if I go home and dash to the bathroom that way she won't bother me.

This isn't about feelings or anything and I wasn't flaming anyone. This was a rant. I was complaining about something. There's nothing else to it.

QUOTE(wariorpk @ Jun 17 2005, 01:47 PM) I happen to agree with this phrase there is no such thing as a stupid question. In my opinion every question was asked to find out an answer. When you ask a question and you know the answer or just want to be dumb that is a statement you said because you want attention. Thats just my two cents. I really like this reply, right on. If we ask a question with the clear intent of finding the answer and seeking truth it can't be stupid since the very seeking of truth is in itself a worthy cause, and a wise one. I think this is essentially something warrior is getting at. Even if someone with a low IQ asks a question obvious to others it would be debatable whether it is actually a stupid question since it is asked with a wise spirit of knowing truth. Essentially saying something or someone is "stupid" is subjective and the one clear guideline of determining a question's stupidity lies in the spirit with which it is asked. To ask something knowing the answer is stupid or foolish and asking something to genuinely truth is wise. The question lies in how we know whether the asker of the question knew the answer already or was really seeking truth. I think I essentially just expounded a bit on what Warrior said and made it a bit more wordy

^ haha, well that was purposely. Everyone does that. I mean, what else are you going to say? If it's a boring day, there are very few interesting topics. It's the people who ask questions repeatedly, on purpose that really...grrr...

I admit that I'm guilty. Whenever I've been hanging out with someone for a few hours and there's suddenly a big awkward pause, i usually end up saying "so.... how are you?" and then i kick myself because I KNOW that i've been hanging out with them for the past 3 hours. yes, venting about myself...

I'll have to defend Milk here. Dudes, don't get so worked up over a little rant like this. Milk just has a beef with stupid questions that people know the answer to. There's nothing wrong with that. I have a problem with them too sometimes. Of course we all utter out a stupid question once in a while, but once a person starts asking questions that they know the answers to redundantly, it starts to get under your skin if you know what I mean. But, if there's a kid in my class that asks the teacher a stupid question, I'll laugh at it. Well, that's my take. Take it for what it's worth.

Milk, I agree with you, this topic has become way too emotional, I must now back out of my emotion and resume my normal emotional status. Another thing I agree with you about...please posters write more than a couple words when posting, please contribute to the forums better.
