Stop Asking. Stop Asking. Stop Asking. STOP ASKING.

People ask some stupid questions. And I mean really stupid ones. There's that whole, "Are you okay??" thing that I'm not even going to go into [coz it's so stupid], and theres people who ask if the current topic of conversation is awkward when it clearly is.

One of the most annoying to me is when people ask a question repeatedly, as if you're just going to change your mind. And I'm not talking about big questions like "will you go out with me??", which often do require a little thought beforehand. [It's hard to blow people off nicely.] I'm talking about questions like "Have you had enough to eat??"

And not just as you finish a meal, no, that wouls make too much sense. They'll ask you then, and then maybe two minutes later they'll ask you again. And then another two minutes later. And then another two minutes later. Ad infinitum. [Not really, but it seems like it.] They just keep asking. Like that whole meal will be digested in the space of five minutes.

It can be applied in a whole bunch of situations, and usually people either don't do it or are repeat offenders. Often they are grandmothers. Think about that. If you do this, odds are that YOU ARE A GRANDMOTHER!!!
