- foobarbecue 7y agoDo you think that a complaint in the form of a question is necessarily rhetorical? Couldn't it, in fact, be Socratic?
- hinkley 7y agoI see what you did there.
- foobarbecue 7y agoWho do you think you are, saying I did stuff?
- eecc 7y agoThe way I read or hear it every time there a “you stupid twat”, “haven’t you thought about that eh! Dimwit” closing line. I can’t help it...
- hinkley 7y agoRhetorical questions don't require an answer. Questions like, "How can we have an audit trail for this solution, in case we have to diagnose problems?" demand an answer. "This is a stupid idea and let me tell you why." invites a rebuttal, not a compromise or a re-think.
