Is there such a thing as a stupid question?

Actually, somewhat off topic, I know many people who refuse to drop these days. Not so much of not wanting to provide pleasure for their girlfriend, but for the fact, for them, it seems to go unappreciated. What I mean by that, they've told that they receive no direction, confirmation of pleasure, damning of pleasure, or what not. For them, it's become a hassle. As such, they've adopted the philosophy of not asking them to drop, but don't expect him to drop. Interesting idea, IMHO, though not sure how fair it is.

The threads going way off topic now, but as to this it's another example of lack of communication. You can train people you know. When to speak and on what subjects and such. It's helpful.

[QUOTE=Skuld]Well it's a simple question to which I have my opinionated answer, but I'm curious as to what you all thing. Is there such a thing as a stupid question?[/QUOTE]

Yes. This is an example of one.

Actually, though, I would say that there are such things as stupid questions, like when you're at a business meeting, and then someone asks a question about a subject you spent the last half-hour explaining, and in the process SPECIFICALLY addressed the issue they questioned you on...

Indeed I've been in many meetings like that, a stupid question is one asked by someone who hasn't been paying attention to what they've been told for the last however long. Ignaorance and asking a question is different to lacking knowledge and asking a question to better understand something.
