The Return of Captain Obvious...

If the answer is obvious, does the question really need to be asked? Am I the only one that gets a little annoyed when the waiter or waitress at a restaurant asks a question that the answer seems to be obvious?

Your glass is empty, and your food has not even arrived. The server asks "can I get you another Diet Coke?" Uh, yes. A good server just brings a refill without asking.

My little family was sitting at a table in Logan's Roadhouse tonight for dinner. Everyone knows their bread is great. EVERYONE likes their bread. Light, fluffy goodness dripping in butter, served piping hot. They normally just bring out a basket and set them on the table while you are waiting for your food - much the same as tortilla chips at a Mexican Restaurant. The waitress comes to the table after bringing our drinks and taking our order and asks "Would you like for me to bring you some bread?"

Does a bear shit in the woods? Of course we want some bread. Oh, and yes, I would like another Diet Coke when you come back...
