Example One
Me: “I think I’m a rather sloppy dresser, especially on weekends.”
X: “Well, you said it yourself, not me.”
Example Two
Me: “When I saw Stanley going out with Chloé, I felt a little jealous.”
X: “Yeah? I was wondering when that would come up.”
Example Three
Me: “I think my dad can be a dirty old man.”
X: “I thought of it too, but I didn’t want to say it.”
Example Four
Me: “I’m phoning to remind you of our appointment.”
X: “I was about to phone you to remind you of the same thing.”
Verdict: X is a poor conversationalist, a bigtime bullshitter, a devious bastard, and a most boring person.
I hope you don’t talk like X.
