Its simple: Say What You Mean

So we all know those comments that are not outwardly rude, but when you think about it, they really are. Those little things people say that elude to what they really want to say, but they don't actually say it. Sarcastic comments and just annoying petty things that get on your nerves. The question today is, how do you deal with it? Do you confront it? Because that's your first instinct, to turn around and say, "And what is THAT supposed to mean?" Which sounds like a perfectly justified response. The only problem is, this really doesn't solve anything, because chances are the person you just confronted won't actually what they said into what they were trying to say in the first place. So your left upset at someone's cowardice, looking like you can't take a joke. Even though 99 percent of the time the subliminal isn't funny in any way.
So what do you do? Hurt your brain trying to untangle the puzzles that people tell you?
No way.
See what people don't realize is, life isn't Facebook. You shouldn't be talking as if you were reiterating one of your statuses you posted. It's simple really. Say what you mean and mean what you say. And if people like to throw subliminals at you and expect you to try to unfold the mystery they so "cleverly" wasted time on saying, don't.
If they really have something important to say, they can say it, not hint at it like this is some Shakespeare play or something, and your trying to say something without really saying it.
Truth is, I don't have time for it.
Who does?
