'She wanted to pay cash over the phone': 20+ Senseless souls who left the people around them speechless

Even the smartest person in the room occasionally has a memory lapse. It happens to all of us at some point. However, there are people who seem chronically out of the loop, catastrophically dim, or unreasonably unprepared for daily life. We love these people all the same, but their off-the-wall remarks still stick with us.

One Redditor who goes by u/_FrankAbagnale asked for people to share the "dumbest question someone legitimately asked you," and more than 31k people replied. Some people were in for a startling awakening, like the woman who wondered what meat was in her turkey sandwich. We hate to break it to you, but…

Another person made the mistake of trying to pay for something over the phone using cash. Well… cash doesn't quite work that way, but thanks for calling! And of course, the cashiers of the world have fielded many an odd question. Shoppers have all sorts of intriguing questions about their groceries or other products. Cashiers have to have mountains of patience to deal with inane questions day in and day out.

Speaking of people who aren't the brightest bulbs, this customer insisted she needed camping equipment… but she kept trying to buy it at a store that wasn't yet open for business.
