I have heard even “better” questions than the shoe laces and table cloth questions.
Does the boy/girls family have ketchup on their shabbos table with their coldcuts?
Where does the mother place her candels/leichter on the shabbos table or on a seperate table?
What color is the girls kitchen?
What size is the girl? If somebody asks me that question again I will ask the person what size pants is the boy.The boys relative dosent want a “fat” girl.Well guess what I dont want my cousin/friend/neighbor to marry a “fat boy”.
I get more crazy questions coming from the boys relatives than from the girls
