I Know What You Mean (TM)

[ljplicease]

Don't you hate it when somebody (possibly even yourself) says something, and then somebody else (usually not yourself) says "I know what you mean" and then proceed with some banality which proves rather conclusively that they have no idea what you are talking about. Sometimes this is because the first somebody hasn't expressed themselves well, but just as often it is because the somebody else is a dolt.

P.S. I would love it if everyone would comment on this entry starting with "I know what you mean..." :)

it's because they're waiting to talk, not listening.

The only thing worse than people who aren’t listening because they are waiting to talk are people who don’t even – HEY QUIT INTERRUPTING ME!
