Frustrating Questions

I have to ask! What is one of the dumbest questions that you have been asked about working out?

I work in an industry with a lot of drivers. Local sort but long hours, 12 - 16 hours days. Very sedentary jobs. All of them that know me, know that I work out. In the last three weeks I have had 6 guys come to me and ask," Why can't I see my abs, I work them 3 days a week". Now this might not be a completely stupid question, but just as a estimate, I would say that not a single one of the guys that have come to me have been less than 30% bodyfat. To me that makes this a very dumb question.

Hah :D Good question,
Specifically, it comes from lack of knowledge.

Someone who starts will not be as experienced as you, I believe that there are no stupid questions, you need to explain to everyone, and good will come back

I remember myself at the beginning when I was a kid and started wondering why I didn't have a visible six pack since if I was skinny and I was doing abs day after day.

However, if I had to say, the stupidest question I've ever gotten was how much to take to look good and have a six pack. As if that had any connection. If 1000mg of Testosterone made eating McDonald's in excess every day make me cut :D
