I'm sure you have heard a few howlers in your time. The most ignorant questions fielded to celebs, politicians or musicians etc. Do you recall any that have stuck in your mind? Added, can also be stupid questions asked to you in everyday life.

One I recall was a British Children's presenter interviewing Abba in the 70's..

Q: How long did it take you to record the "Abba's Greatest Hits" Album?

    When I lived alone I ate out quite often....I was often the ONLY person waiting to be seated...but the hostess would always say "How many in your party".


    I would look left, right, behind me and say "one?"


    I always wanted to say '10' so I could have a big table all to myself. But I figured if I said '10' - the hostess would say 'you are expecting nine more' and then i'd have to say 'no' and it would go downhill from there.

    When I was 19 and in college, I applied for a part-time job at a restaurant, waiter. The guy interviewing asked me where I saw myself in five years?


    I thought it was stoopid as hell... I'm in college, applying for a part-time for a year or so for a particular field (which he already knew, having looked at my resume). I thought it would be obvious I'd be hoping to be in something related to my major, which had nothing to do with restaurants.



    I told him, I'd be his boss, for sure. He did not like that at all.

      I also noticed that sometimes people just don't read your resume, but you should make a big effort to create it in a proper way.
