Can I ask you a question? :marseyburger:

Is the downright r-slurred phrase "Can I ask you a question" rather than just asking your question a !burgers moment?

I have never seen fellow !britbongs do this , asking permission to ask a question is a complete waste of everyone's time.

I only really dislike it over text when they don't immediately follow it up with the question. I would be twice as interested in answering if I was just sent the question right away and didn't feel like I now have to check my phone every few minutes after saying yes. But in real life? It's only a few seconds so I cannot care.

well I or most other brits wouldn't actually take offense openly or say anything other than "sure, what's up" but I'd think less of your intelligence.
