Tubby Beaver 209 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I work in an Elementary school and the 1st graders ask the best questions, I posted this in another thread but what funny things have you heard kids say/ask? 1st graders ask the best questions..... "Why do you have hair on the side of your head but not the top?" "How do you wash your face in the morning with such a big nose?" "Are you married? Why not, my mum is younger than you and is married with 3 kids!" "Why do you have blue eyes?" Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I love the disarming simplicity of kids questions. Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 "Why do you smell?" (It was just a bit of aftershave, honest!) Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 From my Eldest Cub (now 16) when he was 3. After watching a black and white movie on daytime tv. "Were you alive when the world changed into color?" Upon closer questioning we discovered that he did not make the connection that the FILM was without color, and assumed the WORLD was without color.

zdlfskdladealijfsxdfk 0 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 There's a kid in our road who, every time he sees me, says "Gaijin chinchin dekai" (I might add he has not seen me naked). Link to post Share on other sites

Dean 0 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I have had why do you have such hairy arms? You look like a Gorrilla, and I am not that hairy. Just the Japanese have no hair at all. Link to post Share on other sites
HighlyTrainedNovaTeacher 2 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 How about "are gaijin chinchin dekai?"? And this was from a girl. Link to post Share on other sites
Amos in Utsunomia 0 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I don't have much interaction with kids now (well none actually) but I remember getting questions like "why are you not Japanese" and "do foreigners eat food" and things like that. Actually, adults ask some pretty dumb questions as well sometimes! Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Best question an adult ever asked me was in California... some fellow actually asked if we knew "Crocodile Dundee", "ahhh do you mean the Crocodile Dundee actor, Paul Hogan?" "Yeah yeah - that's him, do you know him?" "Ahh..no..but have kangaroo's in our backyard" "Wow really? That is so cool" Dufus! Link to post Share on other sites
Mantas 3 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 There was a news story on TV the other night about 3 armed men that robbed some place. My son sat there for a moment then said. "hmmm... a three armed man" Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 He'd be pretty good at holding the place up, he could take a hostage, cover him with a gun while robbing the till at the same time!!!! Talking about stupid adult statements, I questioned the Home Ec teacher today about why she had a plastic juice bottle with the bottom cut off packed full with red rope. Her reply astounded me: She said "it was to show the kids that Japanese people have shorter intestines than Gaijin"!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Mantas 3 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I wish I had written some of his questions down, some of them are crackers. He's constantly asking me all sorts of things from flamingos eggs to satellites. One that he used to ask repeatedly was "Is 42 the last number?" i don't think he quite believed my answer.

Mantas 3 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Mantas junior (aka the absent minded professor) has just delivered another gem. He came running into the house with some flowers just picked from the garden. "I need some glue for my project" he said. "What are the flowers for mate" I asked "Flower and water make glue dad !" Mrs Mantas and I nearly fell on the floor. Link to post Share on other sites
