These statements must ALWAYS be uttered with the upturned pitch at the end of each line, so as to resemble an "excuse me for not being already totally onboard here" QUESTION, as is the wont of the linguistic style of millennials (which makes me want to puncture my eardrums with a rusty nail before I ever hear that linguistic tool EVER AGAIN!!!!).
