I keep my reaction to myself and nod like a robot. I'm not paid to be the charm and comedy coach for my boss.
This question makes me deliriously happy that I retired early, by the way.

I just nod and say okay... then laugh behind their back, and talk about it with my co-workers!
**It has gotten back to the person I was making fun of at my old job, so I'm more careful now! Plus my boss is actually pretty good and doesn't say too many stupid things!

It depends on what mood the boss is. If he's willing to talk about the problem and open to suggestions then I say what I think about the problem. If he's not and the matter is not of vital importance I let it go.
However I say my opinion, rolling eyes will not solve anything.

Nod, then when he leaves I roll my eyes. Not to mention the few profanities I let escape my mouth!

Definitely go ahead and roll your eyes right there in front of him...make sure to say "Oh, yeah, THAT's a good idea," really sarcastically too, he'll appreciate the feedback...

If you like the job, then you nod and smile.... if not, then roll your eyes and say something....

Actually, I just make a snarky comment. Of course, he just laughs and shoots a smart-a$$ comment right back...
I've got a cool boss.

My boss never says anything stupid. She's a genius.

Sometimes I have an Ally McBeal moment where I have images in my head of me hitting him on the head with my morning cup of coffee and sometimes as he turns away I stick my tongue out when he's not looking!! LOL!!

well, my boss is always saying silly things... like the other day for example, he said that something smelt like mouse poo, and i was like wtf mark, how the hell do u know what mouse poo smells like?... he was suitably embarrassed enough to move on to the next subject!
