Yes, you got it. It's a metaphor.

A little girl exasperated with a bot who keeps asking the same question but doesn't acknowledge the answer.

A metaphor for your logging on and logging off, over and over again, to indulge your peculiar fixation on the same couple of posters?

Well if it not a metaphor for a question and answer and it’s not about a real question and answer, then what does the metaphor represent?
