Does this dress make me look fat? I hate questions like that because there is NO correct answer.
If you say NO the response is."you are lying. The result is you have to eat your dinner out of a bowl on the back porch for a week.
If you say YES, you have to wear a hard hat to bed and sleep with one eye open. Not very restful I might add. Did I mention I hate loaded questions that have NO CORRECT ANSWER?
Kristen: At least I am not alone.
Rosemarie; Tell him to get writing I'm sure it will be a seller maybe even a movie deal!
Rob - I have a real problem answering loaded questions because I really don't know what the right answer is. I guess I need to speak with Rosemarie Heindel's husband for some assistance.

Troy: Hopefully Rosemaries husband can write a book that goes to a movie deal!
I said to my husband once "don't let me go out looking like that" (referring to someone we saw) and he looked me in the eye and said "uh, you can't make me responsible for that". So no loaded questions and no crazy demands.

Tammy: Maybe your husband could get in on the book/movie deal we are talking about here in some of the comments. LOL
Ha - there's no winning on that one. You're right, it's best to plead deafness. You make me laugh. Happy Tuesday to you Rob.

Sometime the best way to answer the question is with a question ie...How does it make you feel?
Hello Rob D. Shepherd
Loaded questions should be banned...thanks for the cute post, made me smile!
I am still laughing, I have always taken the politically incorrect approach and have paid for it dearly:)) Here is the Loaded answer "Now do you want me to lie or do you want me to tell the truth?" generally that is followed by "you know the old saying if you have to ask you know the answer?":)))Endre

Maybe best to answer a loaded question with a question, then change the subject!
Exactly why i turned down a request to run for city Alderman, I would be wrong half the time no matter what i chose. Therefore i do not need half the people calling to yell at me.

You look at life a lot like I do Rob D. Shepherd! I guess that is why I've decided to follow you and your wisdom 
Rob - I agree. I hate those loaded questions. How about answering with "What do you thin?" Answering a question with a question is always easier.
Tell all husbands, it's a trap!! I think my husband would have answered, "I love you. You complete me". Which is what he says when he's in trouble. (Thank you Jerry McGuire the movie...)
Can't wait to hear about your Prospect Hotel experience!
This is very funny. I love to see the look on my husband's face when I ask a questions like that. His face says Is this a Trick Question?
Always say "No'':) Just to be on a safe side.
I think, it is not a lie. It is called ''survival skills''. Happy wife: happy life! Right? ( will work for any woman in your environment).
