    Ah, you seem to have some issues with literary devices. The question was what is called “rhetorical” and was not meant to be answered or taken literally.

      Rhetorical questions are supposed to make a point, and I’m asking you what that point was.

      Now my question is semi-rhetorical because while you could answer, it’s pretty clear that your question was just a phrase you saw somewhere that you’re trying to use as an insult even if it doesn’t quite fit the context.

        Ok, why are you like this? Non rhetorical this time, as this is not even grammar nazi at this point but a complete lack of understanding of the even the possibility of nuance in the written word. Why do you seem to feel the need to ruin any non literal use of descriptive words? What broke in you to make you such a way?
