To paraphrase Chris Berman- Those no such thing as a dumb question, just dumb people who ask questions.

"So do I HAVE to come in at 9?"

"What do you mean we only get one day off for Christmas?"

Coffee seems scarce here, think I can start selling coffee beans?

Okay, I know it violates the "last week" rule, but what the Hell?

I remember people posting years back asking how they could make big money in Korea teaching in a very short time.


Is there a question in there?

Also, cheats, I call cheats.

My favourite one from the last few weeks has to be the address translation that looked like a combination of Korean and Hieroglyphics.

I saved that one on my HD for any time I need some lols.

Will pushing and shoving while sprinting to get to that one empty seat on the subway car make me seem like a classy person?

Do aliens play sports? Do they have ethnicities, religions and hobbies? Are there dumb aliens? Like we have our Einsteins as well as our Glenn Becks and Sarah Palins. Do they have fast food chains, political scandals, suicides and game shows? Do they have their climate deniers, evolution deniers and religious firebrands? I think it would be fascinating to get a look into not only how aliens (a particular group on a particular planet) evolved biologically, but how their societies, norms and religions evolved. Do you think they have family spats, argue over politics, watch porn and go for leisurely walks? Do they have military blocs and free trade zones and high fashion? Are their genres in literature, music and film the same as ours? Do they have cults, unemployed people and tea party 'keep your hands off my laser beam' types? Do they eat meat, wonder if we exist, have long weekends and eat junk food?

Dumb questions, maybe. But fun to wonder about. Very Happy

Can all employers be trusted?

(I still can't believe someone asked if all recruiters could be trusted.)

Almosthome wins the internet for the day! That one made me lol pretty hard.

Side note, this weeks questions seem to be dumber than last week.
