    Have you ever been asked a rhetorical question?

    That moment's pretty obvious.
    Ten years ago, my mother would ask me a question that goes like, "Look, if you don't wanna go to school that badly, then don't go. Do you want to go or not?"
    But you know pretty well that the only answer is "U. GO NAO. OR I KILL U."

    Yes I have

    Sorry for being a pedant but I suppose technically speaking there wasn't a rhetorical question anywhere in that post. Can you imagine?
