Stupid things asked of reenactors

HMS Acasta has an article about seven stupid things asked of historical reenactors:

7.) How did you get all the flags to fly in the same direction?
This is one of those questions I've never been asked personally, but I've heard stories of other reenactors being asked it. Maybe it's a reenactor 'urban legend', but I like to hope that people aren't stupid enough to really ask this sort of thing.
6.) Are you North or South? (asked of any non-Civil War reenactor)
There is always at least one of these couples wandering around any historical event of any era at any given time. They wander up to your camp, see you cleaning your 1770s-style Brown Bess flintlock musket while wearing your tricorn hat and buckle shoes to ask this one. They seem to be of the opinion that all reenactments must be of the Civil War variety.
5.) Is that a real baby?
When I first got started in reenacting, my daughters were still quite young. One day I laid my youngest one down in a cabin at the site so she could get a nap in and not be crabby later. A mom and her son marched into the cabin, stomped over to the cradle and practically shouted: "Hey look! Is that a real baby?" No nap that day.
4.) Do you really sleep here?
You've crammed your tiny vehicle full of your clothes, canvas, tent poles, coolers, camp furniture, gear, cots, and enough blankets to smother an army. You get to the site early because you need several hours, and potentially a few friends to set it all up. Then, not only does the public ask this question of your tented weekend home, they generally wander on in without asking. Hey public, don't do that!
3.) Ain't you hot in that costume?
I'm wearing a wool coat in Kentucky in July, and it's 98° in the shade,  yeah, I'm a little toasty.  Aren't you a little hot in your costume? Also, while we're here, what I'm wearing isn't a 'costume', this is clothing. I only wear a costume on Halloween. If you think of your historical clothing merely as a costume, you're doing it wrong.
2.) Are you really gonna eat that?
It never fails that you slave all day over a firepit at an event, just to have a group approach and ask this one. This question is usually accompanied by a look of horror or disgust from the asker.  Are the people of the twenty-first century so far removed form their food preparation that they don't know it when they see it?
1.) Is that a real fire?
It never ceases to blow my mind that human beings in this modern age cannot identify real fire when they see or smell or feel it. The same people that ask this sort of question when confronted with a real fire are the same people who are allowed to operate heavy machinery, take care of children, and vote! To add insult to injury, their vote counts as much as yours does!

Rico says that, as a reenactor with, worse yet, an eyepatch, he gets lots of stupid (if well-meaning) questions...
