Living is about savoring the fleeting moments that are found along the journey. Put another way, the journey is of greater importance than the final destination.

While perusing Reddit, I came onto a post with a provoking topic. 'What is one of the dumbest things that a person has said to you?' is the question posed in the piece. Out of thousands of comments, I was drawn to a couple in particular and felt compelled to share them with all of you. That being said, if you're looking for some lighthearted entertainment, have some free time between afternoon meetings, and would just love to immerse yourself in some of the funniest comments you'll probably see today, take a peek at the screenshots below! In addition, once you've browsed through all of the comments and perhaps even added a few of your own, don't forget to check out these 30 funny memes that will make you giggle uncontrollably!

    Sfswine Couple I knew were engaged. He was a great guy, but had a horrible nose. I asked him when the wedding was, and he told me his fiancé informed him the wedding would happen after his nose job, because she DIDN'T WANT THEIR KIDS TO INHERIT HIS NOSE. I kid you not.

    -SOTHAThappened- I was 12 when I got braces put on my teeth. During a moment of down time, I asked the orthodontist if my children would still get my ugly teeth. He chuckled and said "probably." That moment is part of the highlight reel that keeps me up at night. I'm 45.

    Morrigoon I asked for double tomatoes on my Subway sandwich. Kid working there lays down the usual 4 slices, looks at it for a moment, then squeezes one more on the end before reaching for the top bread. I said, “I actually wanted double tomatoes please." To which the kid responded, "There's no more room."

    I was so stunned I couldn't respond, so I accepted my sandwich as-is and I've laughed about it ever since.

    NOUMENON1 When I said that Americans usually have Spanish as their second language, my friend 24M said "what, why? Wouldn't it make more sense for it to be Mexican since Mexico is closest to it?" Me and the rest of my friends couldn't believe it. I'm still stunlocked to this day.

    prideorvanity My friend, who I adore, once ordered wings and didn't specify boneless and was shocked and upset when they came bone-in because he "didn't think chickens had bones". We still joke about wanting our wings boneless, "the way god intended".

    Traditional-Common-8 Moved from Ireland to the uk. Fella asked if I drove over. Had to explain the two countries were separate islands and not connected. He was in disbelief until I showed a map. This was an English person.

    Edit: To mitigate any confusion happening in the comments, this individual believed the two islands were connected by land. He was not referring to the ferry.

    opkc My Brother-in-law told me he turned down a raise because it would bump him up to the next tax bracket. He said he did the math and calculated that he would take home less if he accepted the raise. He was so proud of himself that I didn't have the heart to explain how tax brackets actually work.
