I was asked if I knew what planet I was on seriously asked this question. I wanted to be funny. But it came out as aggressive.

I’m not sure , but I’m hoping you didn’t misinterpreted my statement. I just meant being asked by the hospital staff..

Your question was not ridiculous. The person asking you that type of question was ridiculous

I would o told the person , I was from planet Youranusa

My mom got asked a stupid question one time when I was in the hospital getting an EEG. I started to have a seizure so my mom pressed the button to alert the nurses/doctors. When they came they asked my mom “How do you know he’s having a seizure?” My mom was like “I’ve been watching him have seizures for over 15 years.”
