    Any message containing “a friendly” is not and never will be friendly. Just how “a polite” does not make it polite.

      Or how adding “no offense” doesn’t remove the deep offense you just bestowed onto the receiving party haha

        Any phrase that begins with “With all due respect” is about to be delivered with an absolute lack of all respect

          Au contraire. Anything that begins with “With all due respect” is delivered with all the respect the recipient is actually due.
