      Are you asking me or just deliberately being a dick about a spelling mistake? Don’t answer that. It’s a rhetorical question.

        Neither of the above. The question mark indicates a rising tone (common in informal speech), as a way to reduce intensity and specifically not be a dick about it. It’s a polite and friendly way of letting you know you made a fairly easy-to-understand mistake (it’s basically a mondegreen), and what the correct phrase is.
