The statement posing as a question that nincompoops pose in Q&A segments of live talks.
Expanded: In the event of a public talk or interview with a person of note, the moderator throws it open to the floor for the inevitable Q&A section, where various nincompoops try to show off to the crowd about how big a fan they are of the person's work, or just want to tell them something about themselves by dressing up statements as questions.
"We'll throw it open to questions from the audience now, and please, no Questatements -we only have 15 minutes."
