stacomaster: In a Restaurant..

Welcome sir .. Will you guys need a table sir??

NO we came to eat on the floor ..carpet for Five please..

That is not a dumb question. The guy think say all of una na Aboki. They no they use table eat now.

Some of these "stúpid questions" are direct translations from our native languages.

The literal translation for "welcome" in my language is: "You have arrived". Another one is "You have returned".

There are a lot of "confirmation" features in Nigerian conversation, that are clearly rhetorical, as the answer is obvious.

Another example: When you are receiving a lecture, and the person scolding you asks you if you have heard (my language has an exact equivalent of that one too).


That's just the result of expressing mother tongue sentiments with a foreign language. *shrug*

Back to the matter, a guy called me and I told him wanted to sleep. When I woke up and I called him, his first question was 'Are you awake?'.

For my mind, I was like 'No, I am calling you from my dream' :|

I was at the ATM to withdraw money and a frnd called....

Dumbest question I was asked in 2012.... Woke up very early and got set for work... With my folder and wore a suit and my flat mate saw me comingg out from my crib and he asked... " Are you going to work this morning"

Ferdinandu: That is not a dumb question. The guy think say all of una na Aboki. They no they use table eat now.

olagamalin: How can someone "draw a blank"?

It is an expression, 'I came to your house and drew a blank', means that I came to your house and met your absence. Just an expression.

Good to know that you know the meaning. But what you lacked was the sarcasm to drive home your humor. You sounded serious, like something spewed out of ignorance. Peace.

You are waiting for a train in a train station and someone comes and ask, hasn't the train arrived yet? If it has arrived, would I still be standing here?

Sitting all alone and my girlfriend comes in and asked, babe, what are you thinking?... Reply: If I wanted you to know I would be talking.

While I won't bother to criticize the inchoate explanation you provided for that term. It is necessary to fully state how much of a cretin that you are.
I'd like to leave you with one thought, but I'm not sure you
have anywhere to put it!

happiness wherever they go; while some like you, bring happiness whenever you go. (Do have a good day)

If you had even half a brain, you would be more creative in throwing invectives and not to recycle all insults that you've seen on NL. It just shows how much of a slow poke you are who has nothing but used tissue paper up in your skull for Grey matter. Pussilanimous weasel.

wow ... This dude is looking for some attention. I know i told you to have a good day, buh on 2nd thought... I actually don't care. I have a busy day ahead & as much I would like to trade invectives ... you aint worth it. On a lighter note ... U shud consider suing your brains for non-support (Classic example of wasted youth) .ODABO!!!

my rumie entered into d rum saw me watching tele and asked me is there light... wat should i tell him.
Dis guy is gud at asking DUMB questions.

Some dudes and copy and paste. Posters should stop repeating stuff that has already been posted by others. It is elongating the thread unnecessarily.

Unless he knows you don't have a gen or an inverter, his question is valid and not dumb!
