showing question #123

question from I get it now

I got my answer to the last one and fully expect the number to reach 14 when I press the go button?

That’s not quite a question, I fear. Yes, it has the mark of a question at the end, something not all entrants seem entirely interested in, but it is more of a statement that’s unsure about its own validity. A statement in a job interview, perhaps, weighing up what the interviewer wants to hear, versus what it is really thinking.
