Funny Yes or No Questions for Friends

Yes or no — no answer to any question on the face of the planet can be more succinct than this. But asking yes or no questions can easily be one of the most entertaining, hilarious, interesting and, at times, eye-opening activities as it allows you to know quickly just where your friends fall on the issue.

There’s always room, of course, for a discussion for clarification purposes after each one.

Because there are only two possible responses, yes or no questions are some of the easiest to ask. But they can also be some of the most challenging to answer, in some instances, as there are no in-between answers.

It’s no wonder why these questions tend to elicit some of the biggest laughs, the most intriguing stares and probably the biggest revelations, too. And that is why everyone should be warned: yes or no questions should be used with utmost caution as it’s possible for them to turn everybody’s world upside down!

One of the nicest things about these questions is that they’re some of the most versatile.

Perhaps you just want to break the ice or make small talk. Or maybe you simply want a fast-paced game where there’s some sort of winner and prize at the end. Or you just probably want to get to know as many things as you can about someone who’s relatively new to the circle without any delay.

In any case, one thing remains true: yes or no questions can get the job done. It’s no wonder why these are the kinds of questions asked during a polygraph examination.

And speaking of which, you know what can make a game of yes or no questions really fun? The presence of a lie detector test kit around that’s meant to make parties even more fun and exciting! Nothing can be more electrifying than having someone answer a question with a yes or no and learn, too, whether he or she is telling the truth.

Funny yes or no questions, needless to say, are some of those that need to be asked if the goal is to give everyone a dose of joy and entertainment. It’s like hitting two birds with one stone — you get to know the individual more and make the spectators giggle, guffaw or shriek, depending on the question and/or answer.

Below, you will come across some of the most hilarious questions answerable with either a yes or no.

I divided them into different groups — questions for old friends, questions for new friends, questions for friends in the workplace, etc. — so that you can easily get your hands on some of the most appropriate but nonetheless fun questions to ask someone no matter where you are — at a party or on a plane or while video chatting.

For Long-Time Friends

Refrain from assuming that there’s nothing more to know about a person just because you have been friends with him or her for like a thousand years now. Sometimes, all it takes is a quick game of yes or no questions for you to realize for yourself that there are some things about your pal you don’t know yet.

Whether it’s been a while since the two of you last met and that’s why there’s a lot of catching up to do or it was just a couple of hours ago when you ran into each other at the supermarket, plenty of room for new info is available.

The following are some fun and sometimes enlightening yes or no questions to ask:

Have you ever farted in public and blamed it on someone else?
Have you ever dated someone who turned out to be a relative?
Have you ever been caught by your parents watching porn?
Have you ever faked your parent’s signature?
Have you ever had a crush on a relative of mine?
Have you ever pretended you liked someone?
Have you ever tried sunbathing in the nude in a public place?

For New Friends

It’s always nice to have new friends. Unfortunately, there’s not a lot of things to talk about since you are yet to make memories together, which you can talk about for the rest of your lives.

Spending more time with one another can help encourage the newfound relationship to grow, deepen and strengthen. And asking more questions can help the two of you get to know each other better. In many instances, asking yes or no questions is the fastest and enjoyable way to learn about each other.

Let’s check out some amusing questions your new friends can answer with either a yes or no:

Have you ever been suspended from school?
Have you ever cheated on a test?

For Soon-to-be Friends

There’s no need for strangers to stay as unknown people — you can turn them into friends. After all, some of your closest friends today started out as complete strangers. And that’s why someone you just met at a bar, in a foreign city or through a volunteer group could be one of the most dependable and fearful friends of yours one day in the future!

Sometimes, some of the most meaningful and impactful conversations start out as small talks. And you could miss the chance of having a wonderful friend just because you failed to engage with a nice stranger.

And that is why you should arm yourself with any of these yes or no questions the next time you head out:

It’s virtually impossible to run out of questions that are answerable with a yes or no to ask — there are simply lots and lots of them waiting to come out of your mouth and to be answered by someone.

However, it can also be challenging to think of as many of them as you possibly can in the right place and at the right moment such as when more and more guests at a party are getting bored or when you can no longer stand the awkward silence at the cafeteria table you are sharing with an officemate during your lunch break.

Above, you just came across 150 of the funniest yes or no questions.

Feel free to print them or save the ones that you like the most the next time you will be spending time with friends and you are known in your circle as a certified boredom buster.
