Using "annoying that" at the start of a sentence

A: By the way, annoying that I even have to ask, but you are down with fascist dystopias, right?


B: YYYYYes.


A: That "yes" was pretty...Liberal with the letter "Y."


Hi. I saw this dialogue in a tv-series. That use of "annoying" kind of confused me. Is "it is" omitted there? as in:


It is annoying that I even have to ask...
