people always say "no offense" before saying something obnoxious, which is literally the opposite of what they're

no offense but ppl also think "imo" means their opinion can't be argued lol

don't you think that's because they're already prepared for the criticism and want to disarm us with a cheap apology?

not always, some people are genuinely sorry and do try not to be obnoxious, get a grip

so true, and it's like they think those two words are a magic shield that makes their comment okay
