Weird Questions

[Misty]

What's the weirdest question a customer has ever asked you? A question that causes your brain to grind to a halt as if someone threw a monkey wrench into the gears, and you just stand there and blink in confusion?

The other day a woman ordered some frozen yogurt to take home to her son. Once I swirled the yogurt, I asked her what toppings she wanted. She replied with this question:

"What toppings are good for a boy?"

That really had me because I never really thought of yogurt toppings as being gender specific. After a moment, I decided to fight weird with weird.

Me: How old is your son?

Customer: He's fourteen.

Me: Oh, in that case I would recommend crushed Oreos. Boys his age love Oreos. I've also noticed that our chocolate covered pretzels are quite popular."

Customer: Okay, I'll have both, please.

On a side note, I have noticed that young children (under 10) really love adding chocolate to chocolate; they'll top chocolate yogurt with three or four different chocolate toppings, and then cover the whole thing in chocolate sauce. Other than that, I can't say I've noticed any other pattern.

Gender specific..toppings?

What's the weirdest question a customer has ever asked you?

Cust: (holds up T-shirt) "do you have this in a size between "Small" and "Medium"?
Me: I.....don't think so (thinks "smedium T-shirt"?)

P*S

ME: On Phone Hello, [Street name] books.
CALLER: What is the name of your store?
ME: [Street name] books.
CALLER: What street are you on?
ME: [Street name]
CALLER: Do you sell wigs?

I don't remember what happened after that because that last question gave me an aneurysm or embolism or some kind of bad vascular head thing.

When I was a certain age, I only liked the plain brown sprinkles rather than the rainbow sprinkles because I found the brown sprinkles more "manly."

As for weirdest questions, I guess the weirdest was when I was at CVS and I was asked where the deli counter was. He was shocked that our drugstore didn't have a deli.

Every day I have weird questions.

I remember one person called, asking if "pissed" was in the Bible. Another person asks things like "Remember "Castle Grey Skull? Was He-Man half human?" or "when people land on Mars, who will own Mars?" or "what are phasers made out of?" or"Was the (some thing) on Stargate infront of the ship of behind the ship."

Today's weird question was "If a piece of a rib is missing, will that piece grow back?" Luckily it did not become a religious question.

Oh, two people called on different occasions, (might have been the same woman) wanting us to diagnois a problem. "Something is coming out of my butt. Should I go to the doctor? Can you tell me what it could be?"

A cw had a caller ask, "how do you make a woman come?" Cw misunderstood what the asshole was saying and responded, "did you call her name?"

You need Extra-Medium™ (XM™), for sizes both between Small & Medium and between Medium & Large. Good luck keeping the piles seperated...

Lol, I have a good one, but I am pretty sure only those familiar with Dungeons and Dragons will get it. This question came from a couple who were regulars at the steakhouse I worked at. They were expecting a baby.

Father: Hey rainman, what do you think of the name Drizzt Do'Urden?

Rainman: Like the dark elf from DnD? Its a good name I guess, why?

Mother: Father and I were thinking of naming our baby Drizzt, cool huh?

Rainman: . . . . um. . . . well . . . . hey its your baby guys. . .

A few months later, I got to meet little Drizzt, yep, they went through with it

I gair-roan-tee: Not by whistling at her.
