The question is does any question actually question what the original question was for?

The trouble with a thread like this is - doesn't it encourage people to ask more questions ....... even if they are rhetorical?

The thread that asks a question. You think we should have one of these?

I need to ask a question. Is this the thread where I do that, or were you just asking if we need a thread for this purpose and then one can be opened?

How about those teenage girls that end every statement with a question mark? Like, I was talking to him? And you know what he said? He was, like, you know? Like, have you ever met anyone like that? Like in the mall?

So, uh, why do we say "Thanks very much" instead of "Thanks very many"?

Are growing problems a rhetorical QUestion? Sure they are. Do I give a flying fuck? Not very. Is this going to make me look like a Spawoid? Probably. Do I care? Your guess is as good as mine; I forgot the question.
