40 People Who Prove That The Saying "There Are No Stupid Questions" Is Wrong

Humanity is filled with curiosity. Ever since we came on this Earth, we have been asking questions like where did we come from, why are we here, why are things the way they are, what are the other things that exist in our world aside from us, and the like.

These questions are part of the how and why of our evolution and development as the most intelligent species on Earth. And it's how we've come as far as we have today.

That's why the phrase "There is no such thing as a stupid question" came to be. Everybody doesn't know everything and some people may not know things that others may know about so they should not be afraid to ask questions even if it may seem simple or even odd.

It's a way of educating ourselves after all or correcting mistakes. It's even a sign of humility.

Unfortunately, while the statement may be right, there are plenty of people proving it wrong. And people are revealing it on a thread on Reddit under the question "What is the dumbest question someone legitimately asked you?"

And we're not even shocked. We're more just disappointed at how humanity could have fallen so far as these people have.

Here are the best examples to show you why.

Some "dumb" questions are forgivable given that sometimes, people's brains take a little while before they're able to function pretty well, and sometimes, people lose a bit of their common sense. Still, there are people who manage to amaze many of us by conjuring some of the dumbest questions we can't even think of.

It's a talent, we tell you.
