A childish way of saying "obviously". Often prefaced with an emphatic, "Duh!"

For example:

Sherlock refers to "Sherlock Holmes."
Duh! No shit, Sherlock.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit	When you kill people they die	Men get turned on by lesbians much more than women get turned on by gay men	Too many people say "I love you" when they mean "I like you"
canonical	The USA is not a democracy	This is our ool. Notice there is no P in it. Please keep it that way.	keep it on the client side
Your people oppressed my people	How to get your cell phone replaced free of charge	Children's Television As Propaganda	Descartes was wrong
cryptographic primitives	Duh	Sherlock Holmes	Retort
So you've decided to start smoking	That plastic duck just keeps STARING at me!	Sherlock	Buzz, buzz
The difference between being "naked" and being "nekkid"	Turnabout is fair play	The biggest dose of LSD ever	Saddam Hussein is Rational
