Comedian Hilariously Proves That, Yes, Stupid Questions Do Exist

A comedian hilariously proves that, yes, stupid questions do exist. The comedian Chad Thornsberry shares some experiences from his teaching days, which has only confirmed to him that dumb and stupid questions most certainly exist despite what anyone may say. Watch the short but hilarious clip in which Chad mentions some of the strange things he has encountered as an educator.

Teaching is one of the most important professions. Educators touch and mold the lives and minds of the next generation. What those teachers say and do in the classroom will significantly impact society for years to come.

However, teaching and learning require two parties. A teacher standing before a group of students sharing facts and knowledge is not enough for learning to occur. Students must be focused, willing to listen and concentrate on the material. In other words, students have to be teachable.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Chad explains that his experience with students was not always good. Additionally, when they would ask questions, he would get some rather odd, what he hilariously called stupid questions from students.

“Let me tell you something: When you teach, not only are there stupid questions, those are generally the only kind you get,” he said.

He mentions a time in October when his class was reading the classic “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” One student in Chad’s class raised their hand and offered a scary but impossible scenario.

“I’ve got a kid in the back of the room, raises his hand and says, ‘Mr. Thornsberry, wouldn’t that be really weird if Halloween and Friday the 13th happened on the same day?’”

Later in the clip, Chad said he once had a youngster tell him that school was not for them and that they planned to drop out. Of course, Chad asked what the student intended to do without a high school diploma. That student’s response was shocking, to say the least.

“He said, ‘Don’t worry about it. I’m going to get my EGD.’”

Most teachers likely have similar and possibly even worse stories they could share about their time in the classroom.

Proverbs 18:15 “The heart of the man of good sense gets knowledge; the ear of the wise is searching for knowledge.”
