Dead-end questions (in Off-topic)


BadFish June 22 2006 10:47 AM EDT

You know those questions your girlfriend asks you that have no right answer? I have named these questions "Dead-end questions". No matter your answer, you get in trouble. For example: (G is girl, B is boy, for all you illiterates)

G:Honey, if I died tomorrow, which of my friends would you marry?
B:Um, I couldn't do that. I'd be all hurty inside. You know, with emotions and stuff.
G: I'd want you to be happy. Now choose.
B:I dont know... the one last night... in the red dress?
G:Mandy? God that is such like a man!
B:Wait, i didn't mean...
G:You'll fall for anything in a tight little dress, won't you? So i have to dress provocatively just to get your attention dont I?
B: what? no... i-
G:God! now i'm all tense, and I have to go to work in 5 minutes!
B: I'm sorry. Here, let me give you a backrub till you have to go.
G:No! get away from me! (runs to room, sobs, lights Aspen Meadow Candle)

Now, I have developed a way of dealing with these questions that, while doesn't help you get out of trouble, at least lets you have a good belly laugh.

G: honey, if i died tomorrow, which of my friends would you marry?
B:Rebecca. As if you needed to ask.
G:what do you mean?
B:well duh. She's got those long dancers legs and a butt like a ten year old boy. We'd be like weasels in heat.
G:*stunned silence*

Hilarity ensues.

What are your techniques for dealing with "Dead-end questions"? Post them and i'll tell you why mine is better ;)

Always tell them what they want to hear... it's the only way...

Name rank and number. That's all you need to give out. Remember loose lips sink ships.

You never ever find any of her friends attractive in any way. Never. There are no alternatives.

If you really have to, choose a dead movie star. Or Adult cinema actress. ;)

Or their best friend, GL. Because in my opinion if you are with a girl who can't stand the fact of you being with anyone else, you're sunk and you should get out of there quickly. and with my way, you can make your getaway in the shocked silence that follows your response. If you can find a girl who just laughs when you give her your answer to a "Dead-end question", you know you've hit gold. A sense of humor is the best defense :) then again, i'm not married and dont have a lot of success with girls. Maybe my way doesn't work. But i have fun :)

My own experience of the response you suggest would lead me to add very fast reflexes. My wife in particular has a very fast strong punch

First of all.. thats a stupid question to ask...
Second of all, if I should ask that question, I wouldn't care whatthe answer was, as long as it wasnt the............'person that sells favors
down the street....REMEMBER: I'd be dead!

Now..for other dead-end questions "Do I look fat in this" When I ask a similar question, I really want your opinion cause I dont want to go into public looking like a retard. But then again, my chicks-eye view prolly isnt a good one because I such of a tom-boy and could careless about that kinda stuff.

actually, one of my old girlfriends asked me that. "do these pants make me look fat?" and in accordance to my philosophy, i was like "no, its the shirt that makes you look totally heavy." and then she made me wear it for a day. and i'm not a thin person.

For men only:

G: Honey, if i died tomorrow, which of my friends would you marry?
B:Well, your mother, of course.
G: *stunned silence*
B: She's cute, thoughtful, knows all kinds of cleaning tricks, has the capability of raising perfect daughters... (and so on, and so on)
G: Awww, Inde, come on, you're such a tease!

Hilarity ensues. Good night ahead.



When asked a dead-end question, always avoid it by making the girl laugh and making her feel special and loved. Oh yeah, don't forget to put on your 'naughty smile'.

Just as a precaution measure: "Argh, this is such a mens topic!"
I know and am loving it.

G: Do I look fat in this?
B: Yes.

Plain and simple. Oh yeah, don't forget to put on your 'naughty smile'.
