GMAT practice question

if x = writer of this blog, then does x = what the !?@#* appropriately express the emotions being felt?

1) an e-mail was sent out by x's workplace that the calendar that details which 22 days will be furloughed over the next 11 months will not be released
2) x was informed earlier this week of the 2 furlough days for this month - the first furlough day = aug 10th (only one week's official notice)

please choose from one of the following answers:
a) Statement 1 alone is SUFFICIENT to determine whether x = what the !?@#*
b) Statement 2 alone is SUFFICIENT to determine whether x = what the !?@#*
c) Statement 1 and 2 together are SUFFICIENT to determine whether x = what the !?@#*
d) Either Statement 1 or 2 are SUFFICIENT to determine whether x = what the !?@#*
e) Statement 1 and 2 are INSUFFICIENT to determine whether x = what the !?@#*

Answer: D - Either Statement 1 or 2 is enough to determine that x is in fact thinking "what the bleep are you people thinking?!?!"
it's not bad enough that we will have furlough days, oh no, they can't even tell us until a week before when that day is going to be. lovely, bleepin' lovely.
