And “ANYONE KNOW THE FUNCTION OF THE ANUS?” is one of the stupidest answers. :)

I think I remember one “Is our moon actually a star” and there was little to no details. I didn’t respond that I can remember, but I was thinking “really?, he must be kidding”

A call I recieved

caller- it’s white
me- ok, I see you have insur..
caller-wait it’s turning red
me-what happened?!?
caller-I licked it to find out what it tasted like

me-the i560 isn’t a camera phone yo…
customer-YES IT IS IT HAS A DISPLAY SCREEN SO IT TAKES PICTURES!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU F#*%$ING STUPID????

‘Is the moon a star’ ranks pretty high up there in the questions I’ve seen.

@ damien. are you kidding?

that’s what I hate. Like, you could easily google it. Only ask fluther good questions that are hard to find (or opinions).

@90’s: Half the fun is reading all the responses. You can google pretty much anything.

@ judochop

I use fluther more for opinionated questions and questions that are really hard to answer. But that is just me.

well the all-time great is of course “are you sleeping?” heard in millions of beds around the world every single night, preferably when the spouse has just managed to doze off after a long and tiring day.
