    I work with an older lady who hits people with “you’re so pretty” when they do or ask something stupid and I love it.

    I saw one here the other day calling someone a soup fork. I’ve been using that for people who are completely useless.

    Big fan of a slow disapproving head shake and a thumbs down. Especially in road rage situations (or any time I see a Cybertruck).

      I only recently discovered the power of the thumbs down in the car. It is magical.

    I love how you don’t let facts influence your opinion.

    “Sorry, I already have a boyfriend/girlfriend.”

    Implying that everything they said or had done was to get your romantic attention.

    It was trending a few years ago but never caught on fully.

    Still good.

    Just respond to everything they say with “sorry, I’m not into Pokemon.”
