Has anyone ever acted like they didn't know something(but you did)...?

Question

just to hear what someone else says?

Answer 1

Yep all the time. i can "play" dumb with the best of them. And it makes people up more around you because they think you are too dumb to know what they mean. you can find out a lot by playing dumb.

Answer 2

Yes. That's the best way to tell if someone is lying to you and catch them in the act of doing it.

Also, sometimes you just want to chill and don't want to be bothered so you pretend you don't know what they're talking about... Because if you do, you know they'll ask you to do something for them and that's the last thing you want to do for them. ;)

Answer 3

we used to tell this joke "2 ducks in a pond, one duck says to the other duck, 'hand me that toilet paper', and the other duck says back, 'what do you think I am, spaghetti?'" We would all laugh like it was really funny, but tell it to a person that didn't know it was just a meaningless joke, and wait and see if that person laughed at it, too.

That's kind of a similar thing...

Answer 4

I have many times. Just so I don't betray a confidence.I hate gossip, and the best way is to act like you don't know what is going on.
