Stupid questions asked about twins

[homewithtwins]

People ask the stupidest questions when you are out with twins. Like, are they identical? Stupid question, one is blond one brunette. Or they say, how can they be twins they don't look exactly alike?

When they were around three months old, I got tired of the "are they twins" questions. How could they not be? So, I started answering with, "No, they have different mothers." Some people thought it was funny and others would look at you like "oh god, I wish I hadn't asked." the slow witted and old were most caught off guard.

My wife hated it and made me stop doing it when she was with me. Still use it on the most annoying wierdos I meet at Wal-Mart.

Tell them they have different dads, but the same mom. Watch them puzzle that one out. :D

"Twins? You drunk, there's only one baby there!"

A very good friend of mine is an identical twin, and unlike the popular myths about them, she can't stand all that twin stuff. No, she doesn't sense it when her sister gets a paper cut. No, they didn't have a secret language. No, they never ever dressed alike. If you want to get them riled, just say something like "wow, I can't tell you apart!".

As a father of twins I share your grief, especially at walmart, good lord the idiots that you run into!

My wife laughs at all the stories i have from grocery day

the last time i think i heard the Are they twins question, i finally blew my top, i looked at the lady and her friend and said no!! I am a true core Morman and we believe that a large family is vital to the country's survival, I have two wives and each belong to one of them, together we have 10 kids

the ladies quickly walked off blushing and looking back

needless to say I have no tolerance for idiots

Funny, my wifes sister had a baby a month after ours and the look enough alike that when I take them out together, I always get asked if they are twins.... I try to say Cousins, but the girls just say yes and hug each other lol...
