This used to be an ongoing argument with my ex when he was alive. To him the computer questions people at his job asked him were so obvious. And I'd answer not everyone knows IT you fool. I mean sure are definitely not the brightest bulb but just answer them..I thought he talked down to people.

I don't think any question is stupid if the person asking doesn't know the answer.
You mean stupid like "So, you're sitting on the couch watching TV, huh?" or something similar. Yeah, those kinds of 'observation' type questions bring out the snarky bitch in me.

The only real stupid question is the question that is not asked. Some questions are rhetorical where they are only asked to make a point.

My husband asks what's for dinner at least 3 times. Once before I start cooking (understandable), once while standing in the kitchen watching me cook it (mildly annoying) and once right before he takes a bite. (F***ing infuriating) I know he does it just to annoy me and it works.

You should make a normal dinner but then at the table present him with something truly gross but easy to make. Like one of those seventies jello salads or something.bmw29 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 14, 2019 3:05 pm My husband asks what's for dinner at least 3 times.

Working in retail/food service will have people understanding that there is in fact, a such thing as a stupid question. Common sense isn’t common.
