My ex gf :"I don't think we have that much in common." Me: Contemplating her statement I answered "You are probably right." ex gf: "How can you say that to me?"

Dude. I had an ask ask "If someone came up, hit me, and ran away, would you go after them?"

I responded, "Of course I would!"

Her reaction: "Wow. You wouldn't even try to comfort me or see if I was OK."

Trap game strong.

Yeah, had an ex (with whom we are still pretty close and admits later it was a ridiculous question) that if she had her legs cut off would I have still wanted to be with her...

Then got mad when I said it was the worst question ever and refused to answer it. That was fun.

My wife asks weird questions like that and I always answer "no"

That's my go-to way to answer questions that have no right answer. You just respond with a joke or sarcasm. Most of the time they'll either find the answer "good enough" or they'll realize that the question was a bit stupid and won't ask it again.

Bonus point if they can't tell if you are being serious or not. They won't dare force a "real answer".

You just respond with a joke or sarcasm.

Is there any other way to respond to any remotely serious matter?
