50 funny questions to ask anyone

50 questions · Updated 10 Nov 2026

Funny questions are the cheat code for any conversation that's gone quiet. Nobody has a prepared answer to “if you were a kitchen appliance, which one?”, so everybody's answer is a little bit ridiculous — and that's the point.

These 50 work in a group chat, on a first date or on your story with an anonymous link, where people will happily share embarrassing stories they'd never post themselves. Posting to Instagram specifically? These funny Instagram story questions are built for it.

Tips

Commit to the bit

Ask with a straight face. A funny question asked seriously gets funnier answers than one asked with a laugh, because people play along.

Follow up with “why?”

“A toaster.” “Why?” is where the story starts. One follow-up turns a single word into the best part of the conversation.

Collect the best answers

On your story, share a few of the most absurd replies each day. People love seeing their own joke land, and they'll send more.
