Only one I've got is someone called me a stupid dumb@ss the other day. I think that falls into the double negative category, didn't make much sense to me.

This is a little geographical. When I was in college I worked on the Alabama Gulf Coast beach as a life guard. On one very clear day a tourist walked up to my stand and asked me, "On a clear day like this can you see where Florida curves around?". Another one was a lady asked me "Can you really eat Jellyfish?". I loved tourist, well at least their teenage daughters.

I manage a 911 center and believe it or not... yes this question was asked, had a lady call in on our administrative line and asked what the number was to 911!

I told her 9-1-1 and she asked me how to program that in to her phone on speed dial.

Several years back, I was at the parts counter at a local dealership. The service manager came up and was killing himself laughing. He" said a nice looking lady came in and asked him this "check my rearend, because my husband stuck his finger in it and said it was low on grease"

Oh I got a good one, the mother in-law was in the hospital for a routine operation. After work I picked up my oldest daughter (17) and we went up to visit. After a fw minutes we got rather hungry and since niether of us had ate yet we went down to the cafeteria in the BASEMENT of the hospital. We got our food and headed for the elevators to return to her room. We get to the elevators (that were in the BASEMENT) and I had my hands full of food and paused so whe could hit the call button for the elevator (only 1 button with an arrow pointed up), my daughter looked at it and then looked at me with a rather confused look and said "Are we going up?????"
