quick question


a question that usually requires a long answer. a close relative of stupid question and rhetorical question.
joan: i have a quick question for you. how do you solve for “x” in this complex differential equation?

bob: uhhhhhh…
the plea occasionally comes from a pain in the -ss office worker who is clueless and wants help desperately. he does not have a quick question. he usually requires a quick answer that is not easily given. he gives the appearance of knowing what he is talking about but needs a tutorial on how to load a stapler. this guy (sorry men: this stupid question normally does not come from a woman) is not long for the company if he asks this kind of sh-t all the time. the worst offenders will use “air quotes” when asking a “quick question.”
hey dude, can i ask you a “quick question” about the sales meeting this afternoon?
a very decieving word that actually means the question itself will be a lengthy diatribe of mundane subject matter …not even requiring an answer but more of an editorial.
