after seeing A Midsummer Night's Dream in Stratford, went into the gift shop and overheard a couple saying how they, 'couldn't believe that had really happened'.
As in the events in the play. In all seriousness. Donkey transformation and all.....
I was with my English teacher and we both had to get out of there!7 -
It's a highly technical thing, but it's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I had to share it.
I work in the semiconductor design business. I am a layout designer. The circuit designer creates the circuit, I create the physical drawing of the circuit. The circuit communicates to the rest of the world by wires which connect to the chip at special structures called 'bond pads', which are large targets for wires to hit. After the circuit designer does his work and after the layout designer does his work, the fab does its work and eventually the product engineer gets the task of supporting all the activities of mass producing the chip in its package with all its bond wires connected to all its bond pads. One day the product engineer called me to ask, "Is there a bond pad on this chip you don't really need me to connect?"
I performed marvelously in not laughing out loud. Instead, I said, "I'm just the layout designer, you need to ask that question to the circuit designer".
I waited a minute and then went to visit the circuit designer. We had a big laugh together.2 -
The American movies about events in some foreign country, e.g. 19th century Japan, and all native people speak English with fake Japanese accent. The dumbest thing ever4

"Do those stairs go up?"
I was working at a museum and people would ask where the bathroom was or certain galleries. One day a woman asked me if the stairs went up. Normal stairs.9 -

This makes me laugh, I work in a library there is a staircase to the lower level, people will stand right in front of the stairs and ask for directions to certain departments. When I say "Downstairs" they point and ask "This way?"1 -

I have severe social anxiety and I'm super neurotic, so dumb things come out of my mouth often. Ever hear the deer in a headlight expression? That's actually what happens a lot with severe anxiety; your brain shuts off and you go on auto pilot or freeze.
Not words, but I showed up for a discount dental exam at a university, grabbed a stub from a check-in machine to alert the student dentist I was there. This gorgeous mixed Indian girl comes out and says hello. She holds her hand out to me and for some reason I grab it!!! She laughs and tells me that she wants my ticket stub so she can throw it away. Obviously I knew my dentist wasn't going to escort me to my chair by holding hands, but I still say or do dumb things when my anxiety acts up.12 -
My co-worker's boyfriend is out of town. So, we were talking about his birthday next week. And she states," OMG his birthday is next week and he is going to miss it." Mind you, there is no party or special dinner planned... 4

So he says "Snappity snap snap, I'm a squirrel.....wait no" It took him nearly half a minute to remember that he was acting like a crab. He couldn't find the word. I promise you he's spoken English his whole life. I can not promise however that his brain is completely there, he got hit in the head a lot as a child. Mainly because he picked on me and I would hit him with a spoon really hard.
Another one was from my year younger brother. We live in the country, lots of fields, cows horses, etc. Well there's this dip in our front yard. In this dip, sits a squirrel. We had cows at the time and when I noticed it, all I could see was it's little ears, and occasionally it's head popped up for a split second. Well I looked at my dad and told him that I thought we had a groundhog in the field with the cows. It was something we were always watching for because cows step in the burrows and break there legs. Well my 15 yr old brother comes in the living room and tells my dad "there's some kind of wierd monkey in our yard" Now I really hadn't done much better at identifying the animal as what it was. But at least I thought it was an animal native to Kentucky.
My dad was present when both of these things were said, my dad's a strict man and rarely ever laughs when someone says something stupid/ridiculous. But when both of these things were said, my dad had an asthma attack laughing so hard. HE'S NEVER EVEN HAD ASTHMA BEFORE. But both those days, he ended up needing my inhaler.
I have relatives in Kentucky and have mistaken them for monkeys more than once.
Technically it's ok to mistake humans for monkeys. A: a lot of them act like they are monkeys. B: We are descended from monkey that decided to eat meat and the protein changed our brains. And for the record, the further west you go in Kentucky, the more monkey like people get. So you know, if you aren't fond of animal like people, I would avoid that area.5 -

I was griping to a co-worker about how my supervisor, thinks if your husband makes decent money, why a woman would even work, and how ridiculous I thought that statement was......
So after I vented about this to my coworker who appeared to agree with me, she then says "so why do you work, your husband makes good money?"

Not dumb-dumb, just ignorantly cute... when we were discussing the modern wonders of the world last year, my 3rd grader truly thought Chichen-Itza was called "Chicken Pizza". I suspect his parents played a cruel joke lol.4

@clh72569 This made me chuckle. I have a friend who is of Chinese descent, but a couple generations back as well. Born in Canada, her parents born in Canada. She's at my house, and my "I'm so worldly and travelled" niece goes "So, where are you from?" and this lady replies "Canada." My niece, not taking the hint, asks "Yes, but where are you REALLY from?" ... *crickets* from the whole room.

I work in a call center environment, I couldn't pick out the absolute dumbest thing if I wanted to because a majority of it is ridiculousness that spews from the mouths of the customers3
-
I haven't heard them "say" it but "they" keep asking:
Where is EVERYONE from?"
Drives me nuts.2 -
Sadly, I think it came out of my own mouth.
I was looking all over for my dog (Yorkie) for some reason and asked my husband if he had seen her. I was holding her.13 -
I'm eating a Whopper at BK and someone asks me where did you get that from?....4
