I have no idea, ' he said, and that's another thing I'll put in my arsonist's guide: be wary of a man who says, 'I have no idea, ' when asked why his wife doesn't like something he's done, which of course is just another way of saying be wary of men in general. Brock Clarke
About This Quote

"I have no idea" is a phrase that some people use to avoid answering questions they don't want to answer. Rather than just come out and say "I don't know", they'll say, "I have no idea". For example, the question asked could be, "Why do your wife not like this?" or "Why is this so important?" They will then say "I have no idea" rather than answering the question. This can also be used as a way of avoiding responsibility for a mistake.

When you first make a mistake it's always best to admit it and learn from it. However, if someone says "I have no idea" then you should watch out for that person. This phrase can also be used by people who are trying to hide something from you.

If someone says "I have no idea" when asked about something, then you should watch out for that person because there might be a reason why he/she doesn't know about it.
