Irrelevant Babble Thursday, January 28, 2021 @ 1:55 PM “There is no such thing as a stupid question.” Yeah, right. Ask anyone who has been a parent of a teenager if that’s true. Ask anyone who spends eight hours a day in customer service if that’s true. Bill Engvall has made a pretty penny demonstrating the fallacy of that statement (“Here’s your sign…”). I’m sure the aphorism came into being to signal that inquiry is a good thing not to be suppressed for fear of being ridiculed. Still, we’ve all heard questions that made us say to ourselves “Please tell me that wasn’t a serious question.”
