No offense but....
Don't take this the wrong way but...

I'm just saying...

(basically you suck, and I think this is a socially acceptable way to say it)....



My daughter uses those three phrases all the time (yes, I brought this up a year ago), and now it seems to have become an epidemic...:hi:

3. My daughter has learned from the Senate
"With all due respect" means basically, you're full of shit. She tried it on me once and it didn't fly.

She does want to be a senator. I guess it's time she learned the shorthand language they use. :evilgrin:

14. Yes, that one too
Edited on Thu Dec-01-05 09:25 AM by lizziegrace
Fortunately she hasn't tried that one on me. I'm not a colleague, I'm her mean old mother.

Seriously, she's a terrific college freshman and I haven't had any of the usual teenager angst with her. It's just the two of us and we're so in sync, we finish each other's sentences.

"With all due respect" is always said with a shitty grin.

edited for spelling.

25. My son's: "I'm not trying to hurt your feelings, but..."
He uses that line to his sister all the time.

I couldn't tell you how many times we've discussed with him that if he needs to start a comment with words like that, he should just keep his mouth shut.
