Sometimes stating the obvious is all too obvious. How many times have you thought someone asked you a stupid question and you just wanted to respond with a stupid answer? (Societal conditioning or the Holy Spirit usually cause you to refrain unless it's a full moon; which happens to be the case today!!) For Instance:
You make a statement of any sort, true usually. The person listening to you says, "Really?!" You answer: "No...I'm lying to you!"
Or how about the typical American greeting: "Hi, how are you?" "Fine, how are you?" "Fine." The key is that this is taking place as you pass each other without giving a rat's right hiney cheek about the truth of the situation. I've stopped people in their tracks by saying, as Person #2: "Good looking, intelligent, and witty as ever!" Sounds arrogant, but they're all subjective terms, so a slug could be those things to another slug. Plus..."as ever" is the copout...it might indicate you were the most ugly, stupid, & boring person in the world and your status hasn't changed.
Then there's "what's the weather going to be?" (Like anybody other than God REALLY knows!) My reply: "They're calling for a 100% chance of some kind of weather...or the end of the world."
How about: "How dumb can you be?!!" "Gimme a number to shoot for...I strive for excellence in everything I do!"
Got anything ya wanna know?
