questions that piss you off

[nissangirl74]

Also, while I'm talking to some random stranger that claims to be a car person:
"So..who did the work on your car?"
"Um...I did"
"How?!"
"I'm a car person, I like working on cars."
*silence*

This is even more epic when it's me. I've gotten the "You've got to be kidding me" look more than once.

[Razi]

Also mixed with "This woman is awesome" look.

[Red coupe]

I dislike the "are you sure?"

Usually when people offer you something, and you turn it down.

And they relentlessly check that you are sure, like you are just too timid to accept. If I wanted it I would have taken it the first time... and if by the second I still don't accept you can damn well know I am sure.

When people get into my car

"You know how to drive manual???"

"Nah, just bought a car with m/t for s*** n giggles."

Oh yeah man. It's hilarious. Although now-a-days I can't do as much because of the lack of garage and a scary sloped driveway/street.

Have you found jesus?

[Razi]

Have you found jesus?

[PapaSmurf2k3]

Have you found jesus?

I get that and "What church do you go to" a lot down here... nobody knows what to do when I either laugh, or say that I do not attend church. Usually its something like "Oh so do you have to work on Sundays or something?"

"where are you from?"

Not so much that, but their follow up response when I tell them I'm from Rhode Island. 100% of the time its "DANG BOY! You a long way from home!!!" Every f*** time!!! After that, there is a 50% chance that they will ask something about New York... like "So did you see the towers fall?", or "That's in New York, right?", or "Dang, I hear its crowded in New York". I then have to give a 5 minute geography lesson that doesn't sink in... sometimes I even draw pictures.

[PapaSmurf2k3]

"How much is your car payment?" I get that one a lot... its like the idea of owning a car outright is completely foreign to most Americans now a days.

Another one of the "response" things that pisses me off... if I call and ask someone what their address is, I want to know what the address is, not that there is a diner within 3 miles of them that I have to turn left at... Even after saying "I just need the address... I have GPS", they insist on giving me 3 pages worth of directions... like I'm going to write all that down with my imaginary pen and paper.

questions that piss me off, after poeple see my real name (dionysios) "Do you believe in Zeus?"
"Omg are you smoking?" Yes there is a goddamn Newport in my mouth.
"do you know where I can find this item" Look at the damn aisle sign.
But last but no least "Can I ask you something/a question?" No you may not.

[JimmyMethod]

When I tell people I have a degree in film: "What's your favorite movie."

[Razi]

"Is this an Integra?"

There are people out there that actually think Rhode Island is in New York?

[zer0c123]

Speak english? That was when I was working in a grocery store. I'm asian american, so the english question tends to piss me off.

I guess another would be when someone sees my 240, they ask if I have an SR in there. Just because I drive a 240 does not mean I have an SR20 in there (I wish).

[nissangirl74]

Yep. Apparently geography isn't a big priority in schools anymore. It doesn't bother me so much that my kids don't have to learn the names of every country in Europe, the capitals, their major rivers, and primary mountain ranges like I did. It does, however, piss me off, that teachers don't make the kids learn the names of the fifty states, their capitals, and to be able to point them out on a map.

[4cefed]

You can always teach them that stuff at home.

"Oh Vermont... what state is that in?"

[nissangirl74]

"Atlanta and Italy are states too, right?"

[PapaSmurf2k3]

There are people out there that actually think Rhode Island is in New York?

Yes... I'd go so far as to say that the majority of people in Mississippi have no idea what/where RI is, or really anything between New York and Maine for that matter. It'd be interesting to see them attempt to draw a map of the US... New York would share a border with Maine, which would probably contain the north pole.

[Legion76]

What?! Santa lives in Maine!

[4cefed]

Tito, you've never worked a cash register have you?

you ask that to avoid people telling you that they handed you a twenty when you give them change back for the ten they gave you.

[Bubba1]

Nala asking what should he do with a girl?

[93coupe]

Q: Can you fight?
A: ...punches them in face...

Doubt it.

Q: Do you want any sauce?
A: Um, yeah. Who the f*** eats dry chicken nuggets?

Oh yeah, asking a question to get you what you need is absurd! I'm sure they just know what kind of sauce you want, dumbass.

[Mr1der]

well... people get lost all the damn time just telling them about my truck....

does it have an SR? no

so it has a KA? no

oh... so it must be an L series!? ............. no

to be fair, who the hell wants to remember the Z series?

[chompsticks]

So I am Canadian Asian.... And these are the questions that people always ask in this order....

"Where are you from?'
Umm... Kennesaw, Ga

"Oh I mean where were you born?"
Thunderbay Ontario

"What is your Nationality?"
Canadian...

"What is your Ethnicity?"
Thai... (Generally the answer they want)



Oh... and "Is that a Scion?"

[Mr1der]

[93coupe]

In their defense, many auto parts stores hire people that are completely oblivious to anything mechanical/electrical... although Advanced seems to be much better (from what I've noticed anyway).
