Translations

Sometimes I hear people talking in words without meaning. You know how there are certain frequently used combinations of words, or "phrases", which slip off the tongues easily? Well, these are popular as space-fillers in conversation, but rarely mean what they say.

"I hear what you're saying" = "I don't like what you're saying"
"The fact is" = "My opinion is"
"Let's be honest" = "Let's be superlative"
"It takes all kinds" = "I have nothing to respond to your statement with"
"Whatever you say" = "Fuck you"
"I guess so" = "I give up"
