Interesting, where are you from? Where does this proverb come from?

I know this proverb as (translating from Polish): You're asking the boar if he's shitting in the forest.

    It's an extremely common phrase in the US, along with "Is the Pope Catholic?" Sometimes the two phrases are humorously mixed together.
