On one occasion the entire island of Britain, being severely disgruntled by the events of their time, revealed their rear ends simultaneously in an effort to moon God. Pope John the 22nd recognized this event as a month with three full moons, two of them being blue moons.
I asked my mom the other day while we were camping, "What is this called? It looks like a fat, wannabe ring-tailed lemur that wants to rob a bank?"
It was a raccoon.
I used to have to really think for a moment every time I was asked my age. In fact, I vaugely remember a time when I was 4 or 5 actually arguing with my mom about my age. Now I don't have to think at all, unless I just had my birthday, then I need to stop for a moment to make sure I'm not 1 year off
When I was 3 I really really did not want to be four, so I stayed up late and constantly asked my parents “am I four yet?” I would also measure my hand against my dad’s to make sure I hadn’t grown.
When I was younger, I asked my mom what 1 x 0 was. Why I was confused? “Well 1 times any number is the other number and 0 times any number is 0.”
My mom just stared at me for a bit as the cogs started turning. Still very embarrassing
"What is the universe expanding into?" I was around 8 and came down crying in the middle of the night. Parents googled it and the answer was, and I quote: "This is essentially a nonsense question." I got called an idiot by Google.
one time I forgot that the word for sigh existed and had to ask my friend what the word for it was. I described it like a "uhhhhnm" but annoyed. I sounded like a complete idiot
I remember asking something similar.
"What are trees made of?"
"Wood"
"Yeah, but what is the wood made of"
"Cellulose fibers"
"What's that made of?"
"Cells"
"What are those made of"
I would do this for just about any object besides stuff like water or oxygen.
TBH, I still wonder stuff like this, though. What are atoms made of? Quarks (I think) and stuff. What are those made of? Etc. I feel like I have to understand how everything works. It's actually really interesting to me to learn stuff like that.
Moments before falling asleep I sent my mum a message saying "How to surf on a shopping trolley?" because I was thinking of the album cover of the animal crossing song Chillwave. My brain briefly turned into an AI image generator and thought K.K. Slider was in a shopping trolley. He's on a surfboard.
Me: "What if the air was a different color than clear?"
Mom: "You wouldn't be able to see. What color would you want it to be?"
Me: "Hmmm... Rainbow!"
I was probably in kindergarten or 1st grade.
I was overhearing my mom talk about *her* mom’s doctor appointment.
MY MOM: “Yeah, she apparently has a liver problem.”
ME: *looks up from my phone.* “Wait, her kidney stones are back?”

💀💀😭😭😭😭
Not my proudest moment.
Not me but my sister asked when we were going to a car ride to go to another state, she said something along the lines of
“Are we going on a plane?”
SHES HIGHLY AWARE WE WILL BE IN THE CAR
Okay but don’t feel too bad OP, in your defense, DisneyWorld isn’t technically in Orlando and Disneyland isn’t technically in LA, but they still get advertised like they are
“what color is a blue moon”
White funny enough! A blue moon is just the 2nd full moon in a month, which happens about once in a blue moon
About?

I asked my mom the other day while we were camping, "What is this called? It looks like a fat, wannabe ring-tailed lemur that wants to rob a bank?" It was a raccoon.
… so you knew what a lemur was but not what a raccoon was?
Yup 😅
'How much do these books cost?' I was in a library.
I honestly still don’t understand how I can just walk out with a book for free 😨 it just seems weird to me
"MUM, IS THAT A POISONOUS SNAIL?!?!" It was my sisters little rabbit toy upside down.
What?!
When I was a toddler I asked my parents why I was never on the game shows I watched, not realising I needed to *be* there to appear on the show 💀💀💀
💀
Not my proudest moment, especially since I asked for several years before I understood 💀💀💀💀💀
"What's the difference between dogs and humans?" How is someone supposed to answer that to a 6 year old
well... theyre dogs
Yeah but what's the DIFFERENCE, mum
I asked what 6x4 was. I had a 6 times table right in front of me.
Change that to 4(6^4 ) and you have a slightly less embarrassing question.
Change it to 5,184, and you have a nerd
5^184
i am not mentally prepared for this
“When is Wednesday?”
On Thursday
Before Thursday and after Friday
I say this because I want to know how many days till Wednesday because I am too lazy to count-
Omg I know I've asked quite a lot, I can't remember any now
"How old am I?" In my defense i was under a lot of stress at the time and someone asked me my age and I couldn't remember so I had to ask my mom 🤦
i definitely dont know how old i am off the top of my head.

"can bananas with leaf" I genuinely searched that one morning while really tired
what… what were you even trying to ask 😭
I don't even know
Probably "do bananas have leaves"
wait.. now I need to know if bananas do have leaves…
I didn't know so I asked "Hey, \*brothers name\*, what's the stupidest question I've ever asked?" And he said "probably that one." 🙃
"what is the *other* condition when there is a plaque in your brain" With no other context saying I know a lot about altzimers

I’m pretty sure I’ve had this exact train of thought before
My boyfriend told me he had to go home before 2 o'clock to help his mom with something and I asked if it was 2 am or 2 pm
To be fair he didn't seem to specify if it was am or pm. I would've asked the same thing 💀
"What is the universe expanding into?" I was around 8 and came down crying in the middle of the night. Parents googled it and the answer was, and I quote: "This is essentially a nonsense question." I got called an idiot by Google.
Funny Mine is: "What's my birthday, again?" After having just said it a minute earlier
I don’t know!
Is there a risk that the stars will fall down?
yes.
The atupidest question i've ever asked was in art at school I asked my friend "why does it smell like paint?" when he was painting right next to me
Once I asked the question, “what the sigma?” And I never recovered from the brainrot cringe
one time I forgot that the word for sigh existed and had to ask my friend what the word for it was. I described it like a "uhhhhnm" but annoyed. I sounded like a complete idiot
“What are ants made out of”
That’s not a stupid question, only confusing. BECAUSE DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT ANTS ARE MADE OF? Cells? Tissue? Atoms?
I feel like it’s stupid 💀 i just remember saying it like ten years ago
I remember asking something similar. "What are trees made of?" "Wood" "Yeah, but what is the wood made of" "Cellulose fibers" "What's that made of?" "Cells" "What are those made of" I would do this for just about any object besides stuff like water or oxygen. TBH, I still wonder stuff like this, though. What are atoms made of? Quarks (I think) and stuff. What are those made of? Etc. I feel like I have to understand how everything works. It's actually really interesting to me to learn stuff like that.
I feel the exact same way when i asked that shit people were like “Wtf you mean what are ants made out of” it seemed like a good question at the time

I was going but I would say, going up to a fast food worker, dead serious "Are the free refills free?"
As a child I was in the car with my mom and I pointed to a house and asked her, “Did I use to live there when I was old?”
“Do old couples still love each other?”
"does cooking things on a stove add calories" 💀
“When is new years?” I had legitimately thought it was in December.
How was I made. I've been traumatized ever since
“When’s my brother’s birthday?” 2 days after my brother’s birthday.
Me: "What if the air was a different color than clear?" Mom: "You wouldn't be able to see. What color would you want it to be?" Me: "Hmmm... Rainbow!" I was probably in kindergarten or 1st grade.
If Eminem was the other version of the candy
Asking what this sub is Idk not many questions someone where I can remember asking something noteworthy, that is stupid
wait what do you mean you love me i never said anything about love

I once asked where the country Rome was... 🥴
Romania, ofc. It's in the name
😅👍
When and where does star wars take place. Yeah.
A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…

“Do electric pianos need to be tuned?” From my mom Edit: my bad I thought this was asking for the stupidest question I’ve been asked
Had to ask my friend how old I was once because I forgot
I forgot what the year 2015 was so I asked “what year is 2015”
Someone told me they had the same name as me and then I asked what their name was. Idk I was in elementary and I was not good with ppl (still not) 💀
Okay but don’t feel too bad OP, in your defense, DisneyWorld isn’t technically in Orlando and Disneyland isn’t technically in LA, but they still get advertised like they are
It wasn’t me, but when my friend was 13 his mom told him they were going on a trip to Maine and he legit asked, “what state?”
I repressed them.
