My husband has three little words that he says to me every single day . The second word begins with the letter L . Those words r.......just leave it . He's so romantic 🙄 .
I have a nasty little trick that I do a lot to people who I think r trying to get a reaction out of me . U know , when someone tells u something in order to provoke a specific response from u ? Something shocking or dramatic , something they r saying because they want to provoke u ? I put on my poker face , take a deep breath and......never react how I think they want me to 🥴 . I hate to feel that someone is trying to manipulate my emotions so if I suspect for one second that they r , I don't let them , they r usually up to no good 🤨 . I have to confess that I take some pleasure in deflating them by staying cool and calm and trotting out some unprovocative glib response 😒 I think I might b evil 😞 .

Oh I dunno... I wouldn't call it evil.
See I do the same thing. I like to give people something they are not expecting. I'll say a cheerful "Good morning!" at 5pm, just to make people double-take.
One time I came home from w*rk and my father was standing in the kitchen. Dad lives up in Kentucky. So quickly does the human brain work that by the time I had walked into the kitchen I had already noted the following facts and made the following surmise:
- Dad has come to visit
- He parked his truck somewhere else because it was not in the driveway
- He did not tell me he was coming
- He wanted to surprise me
- Doggone if I'm going to act surprised
So I acted like it was the most commonplace thing to see him there, and said "Hey dad" in a distracted manner.
I have found a good face to put on it though. You can use this excuse if you want. See, experts say that if you use your brain more then (if you get it) Alzheimer's syndrome will take longer to affect you. Those experts also say that the brain automates the familiar whenever it can, in an effort to streamline life. So if I give people something they don't expect, I am actively counteracting the Alzheimer's they might get when they are old.
Yup. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. I'm an anti-Alzheimer's agent.

interesting. yes, lot's of people say "what" out of habit. i say it because i'm busy & didn't quite concentrate on what i was doing & listening to him or her. sometimes when some is far away, i say it repeatedly as a joke! but this 1, i like the best; if someone can't speak with proper diction & clearity, i'll say what reputedly. makes them mad sometimes. i knew a guy so messed up on drugs that a speech therapist couldn't understand him!
