polite

Someone on AskReddit fired up a thread about people's favorite polite insults. Some of these might be familiar. They're the kind of insults that don't come out blatantly swinging, but more so go for the subtle sting. 

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the most effective, polite ways to shut down conversations with persistent chatterboxes. We've all been there, busy just trying to muddle through a day, maybe in a rush to get somewhere, and then you cross paths with the immovable, breathless, object that is a passionate chatterbox. It's as if they are so involved in venting to you or whatever ears are around, that they're incapable of seeing the clear sign that nobody wants to hear what they have to say. Consider trying out these polite conversation enders the next time you fall prey to a chatterbox in the wild. 

Twitter users are banding together to share the polite ways that one can tell another person to, "f off." You know, when you've reached your capacity for whatever kind of BS that someone else is throwing your way, but even then you want to keep the whole show light and polite? Well, these clever ways to politely tell someone, "f you", might come in handy. 

When met with the question "what's the nicest way to tell someone to F off" Redditors of all stripes threw their hats into the ring. From common sayings in other cultures, to random abuse they've gotten on the street, the world is bursting with semi-polite and professional ways to tell someone that you'd rather not have to ever see their face again.

When you're at work, you don't have the time or energy to get in a real fight, so people opt for more passive aggressive means of debasing each other. So here's all the things people have heard or told morons that amount to the sheer fury of the phrase "as per my last email." Work can be brutal.

Sometimes your passive aggressiveness or passionate unrest or mad confusion, boils over to such an extent that you need to yell at the world through a sign! You can just feel the rage coming through that person's stoic expression, as they broadcast on their sign, that they're so damn angry, they made a sign in the first place! 

We get so caught up with the red flags that we forget to notice that people can have good traits. Here are some green flags that show a person has some good in them.
