well duh
Already knew that
Well duh is a response indicating that something is blindingly obvious—so obvious it barely needed saying.
The phrase combines the affirmative *well* with the interjection *duh*, which mimics slow-witted speech.
It's dismissive, suggesting the speaker has stated something everyone already knows: Well duh, of course water is wet.
Often used playfully among friends, though it can come across as condescending.
