Stupid Questions

Me: “Hey, Gauge. How are you this morning?”
Gauge: “Good.”
Me: “Did you have breakfast yet?”
Gauge: “I had some cereal.”
Me: “Okay, so are you good, or are you still hungry?”
Gauge [looking at me like I’m asking the stupidest question ever]: “Of course I’m still hungry.”
Me [laughing]: “Okay, let’s find you something else to eat.”

It reminded me of Porthos from the 1993 version of a Three Musketeers.

Cardinal’s Guard: “Are you coming peacefully, or do you intend to resist?”
Porthos: “Don’t be so stupid! Of course we intend to resist, just give us a moment!”
