ReZourceman Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 Ah the famous words. We've all heard them....heck most of us have probably used them. Things like "I don't mean to be funny, but" and "No offence..." But whatever the next line is, you can guarentee that its a complete opposite to what they prepared you for. "I dont mean to be funny, but Im going to be really funny" Lozzles.
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I fucking HATE it when people say that. Normally it's women. Fucking fucks me off. "I don't mean to be funny but-" "STFU!"
Tellyn Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I love the forums so much this month, we've had Drunken Flinky, KOF appreciation, N-E awards, DIY mafia, can it get any better? YES, YES IT CAN!
Guest Stefkov Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 "I don't mean to be funny but...you have something on your head...yeah right there...oh wait. It's your face."
Coolness Bears Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 "i don't mean to be rascist but..." That's my favourite one i've heard someone use..... It is a really annoying! It's like a get out clause for someone to offend you!
Ellmeister Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I hope you don't take this the wrong way but.....I'm going to totally insult you and make you feel bad anyway..
Patch Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I hope you don't take this the wrong way but.....I'm going to totally insult you and make you feel bad anyway.. ...and then make out it's your fault for 'taking it the wrong way'. Oo-er.
Ellmeister Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 This may sound a little weird but... I want to give you anal... If its going to sound weird, even a warning won't stop me from thinking wtf.
weeyellowbloke Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 "I know you probably don't want to hear this but........." "You're right, I didn't want to hear that"
Paj! Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 "I don't mean to be funny.."? Who says that? It's "I'm not being funny, but.." Anyway. I don't mind it. Usually people use it just to make what they're trying to say or point out not sound as bad. Like if someone said "No offence, but i really don;t like your drawing", it's just them making it sound better, and that it's not you they dislike. It sounds better too.
Brian Mcoy Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 Mcoy dosen't want to talk in third person but...
Paj! Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 ..does anyway, even though it's one of the most annoying things possible?
darksnowman Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 Worst of all is "you're a great guy but..."
Cube Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 "i don't mean to be rascist but..." That's my favourite one i've heard someone use..... It is a really annoying! It's like a get out clause for someone to offend you! That one fits in some situations, though - sort of to mean "people usually say this but political correctness is currently stupid so I have no idea if this has suddenly become unacceptable for no reason." Worst of all is "you're a great guy but..." Agreed.
MoogleViper Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I don't mean to be funny, but this is a stupid thread.
EchoDesiato Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I don't mean to be funny, but this is a stupid thread. I don't mean to be rude, but don't worry, you're weren't.
AshMat Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I jsut went out for tea, one of the women said "and i'm not being funny rite". Fun coincidence.
The fish Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 Worst of all is "you're a great guy but..." Meh, why can't people just say that they don't like you?
BeerMonkey Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 that ""charlie" from this years big bro said "im not being funny" alot pissed me right off so annoying
Ellmeister Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 Meh, why can't people just say that they don't like you? Because thats outright harsh to. You try taking that... its not as easy as you think..
Slaggis Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I always say "No offence, but..." or something if I really want to say a joke but know it might offend someone.
The fish Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 Because thats outright harsh to. You try taking that... its not as easy as you think.. It may be harsh, but at least its both honest and doesn't piss me off.
MoogleViper Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 No offence fish but you're a dick. I don't mean to be gay, but I love you really.
EEVILMURRAY Posted December 5, 2007 Posted December 5, 2007 This may sound a little weird but... I want to give you anal... If its going to sound weird, even a warning won't stop me from thinking wtf. That's because it MAY sound weird, you might actually welcome the sensation of a cock up your ass.
