The “Absolutely!” Virus

I don’t know exactly when this virus began to infect and propagate profusely in certain segments of human intercourse, but it is clearly getting out of control. It seems like the answer to an amazingly large number interviewer questions in the media these days begins with “absolutely!”. Perhaps this phenomenon stems from the fact that interviewers keep lobbing these softball questions to interviewees.

Will there be a vaccine (e.g., more hardball non-obvious questions?) that has everyone answering “relatively speaking…”?

Will we beat this affliction? Absolutely!
