You say this. You mean that!

 Do you avoid conflicts by saying just the right thing? They call it “condemning with faint praise.”  Here is what you are supposed to say, followed by what you really think:

May I suggest a salad for you at this restaurant?

Man, you are fat as a house!

-0-

What cute kids!

The way you raised them, they’ll probably become drug addicts or prostitutes.

-0-

Maybe we have had enough beer.

Stop! You’re drunk as a skunk!

-0-

Interesting! That is quite a song.

You sound like a screeching owl!

-0-

I’ve never had a chicken casserole like that before.

This food is awful. While you’re not looking, I will dump it in the garbage.

-0-

Thank you for participating today.

I am not going to comment on your song, which totally stunk!

-0-

I’ll bet you get compliments on your new house.

What an eyesore!  You should take a match to it!

-0-

I can understand why you don’t know the answer.

You haven’t the brains of a housefly.

-0-

That’s some photo of you, I’m surprised it’s not hanging on a wall some place.

You look like one of the 10 most wanted. Even AI couldn’t fix that picture.

-0-

That is an interesting perfume.

That smells like your last perfume that gave my cat asthma.

-0-

Oh, you cut your hair short. Interesting.

The lice on your head must be starving now.

-0-

Ooh, we are getting there faster than I expected.

I hope the cops come and take your driver’s  license away!

-0-

What a dress! You are such a snappy dresser.

I can’t believe it! The health department should burn that thing!
