    Is my post pointless? What do you think?

Since you asked, pretty much yes. If your real life friend kept asking you the same question, you'd get pissed off.

You might say:

"Weren't you listening? You just asked me that!" or you might whine "You never listen to me."

On the other hand, if you and a bunch of friends were belly-up at the bar of reason and sanity, you'd probably just move on to another drink and another conversation at the other end of the bar.
