I was answering some questions online, and one of the questions was:
"Does this computer have access to the Internet?"

Uh, Duh! How do you think I was answering your online questionnaire?

I wonder who comes up with redundant questions like that? I hope you answered :Uh, Duh! How do you think I was answering your online questionnaire?

Boy, I'll tell you! How do some people get away with such stupid questions?

Got a good chuckle. Thanks.

I've seen that before. I had one about a week ago that went through the same questions FIVE TIMES and added a new one each round only to throw me out and tell me I did not qualify. Sheesh!

Hmm... How could you know? From a logical standpoint, the question refers to the machine used to create the form that you were filling out. Most likely, that's not your computer. After it was created, the form could have been transferred to another location for uploading to the Internet.

From a practical point of view, however, this interpretation makes no sense. Without knowing the context within which it was presented, there's really no way of determining the full extent of the "duhhhh!" factor.

That's so silly!
