Questions & Answers about Cet homme égocentrique a monopolisé la conversation, sans compter qu'il ne m'a posé aucune question.
Does sans compter que require the indicative, or should I use the subjunctive?
It requires the indicative, as used here with the passé composé (il ne m'a posé). You use it to introduce a concrete, undeniable fact that acts as the final blow in your argument. Since you are stating a reality rather than expressing doubt or subjective emotion, the subjunctive is not triggered.
Why does the sentence use posé for "asked"? Can I say il ne m'a demandé aucune question?
Why is there no pas in the phrase il ne m'a posé aucune question?
