Why do humans like to state the obvious?

We have an odd tendency to say things that are obvious to everyone present, like, "It's cold outside," or, "It's raining." or "I Win" If we are as intelligent and logical as we say we are, why don't we tell others strictly important information that is less apparent. Why not just give information when we are asked for it? Wouldn't that be more efficient?
