One of my favorite things about working in a public library is when people ask a question, but do it stupidly. I feel have no choice but to give them a stupid response. These are honest-to-God examples, and my honest-to-God responses.
Patron: "Where are dolphins?"
Me: "They live in the ocean."
Patron: "Excuse me, where are cars?"
Me: "In the parking lot."
Patron: "Can you tell me where Edgar Allan Poe is?"
Me: "He's dead and buried somewhere, ma'am."
Ah, gotta love the public.
