What is the dumbest thing you've ever heard someone say?

I guess in that context I can see where you're coming from. Maybe you had to be there to actually hear it, because in this case it was very clearly said in a dumb blonde way as opposed to a wondering aloud way.

If she had to think about it for longer than 10 seconds and couldn't figure it out, then, yes, I suppose it was pretty dumb... lol

I'm just saying, I've had plenty of situations when I've looked to other people for simple math. I was scoring a Penn State hockey game a week and a half ago. I had never done a men's game, so I was a little stressed and wanted to make sure I got everything right. When you score a game in hockey and need to write the time that something occured (goal, penalty, etc.), you always use the time that has elapsed in the period, not what the clock shows... sort of like soccer. A couple of the times I just asked the other people in the scorers box to do the subtraction for me. I knew they could do it quicker, and I'd just get flustered if I tried to do it, knowing that I had a billion other things to worry about.

Golden Globes are nothing more than a popularity contest.

I've got two for you, both from my mom.

#1 - Me, my cousin, and my mom were at O'Charley's, and it was my mom's first time there. The server comes and takes our order and gets to my mom. She orders her entree and the server asks her, "Would you like soup or salad with that?" Mom replies to him, "Yeah, that sounds good."

A few minutes go by and our salads/soups come out, and my mom looks at me and my cousin with a strange expression. After the server walked away, she said, "This doesn't look super to me."

It's been 8 years and we talk about it every time we visit each other. It really never gets old.

#2 - Mom again. We were sitting around drinking coffee a few months ago, and I can't remember what we were talking about, but mom threw in the best one liner I've ever heard - "I didn't think about it until I thought about it." My wife and I fell out, but mom did to. It's a good thing she has a sense of humor.

From my mother's resume when she was looking for a job she claimed to have excellent intra-personal skills that would be a huge asset to any company. It took a solid hour to convince her that if she turned in that resume people would think she had multiple personalities.

That first story is literally gold.
