Rhetorical has a different meaning, and one without a connotation of 
ridicule. A sarcastic question and a rhetorical question are two entirely 
different things.  It's not a question of whether I'm "happy" or not.

Given how often miscommunication seems to happen and upset people, and given 
how often you complain that people aren't taking things the way you meant, 
I'm trying to offer assistance with communicating clearly. My apologies if 
this offended you.
