I may need to say something that is (seemingly) nice about someone, but I’d prefer it be very subtly backhanded or nearly believable hyperbole.
Edit: I realized that I was imagining something like how the Colbert Report was done where it’s easy to believe I’m agreeing when really I’m spoofing.
Which always reminds me of a saying: When you’re trying to comprehend human behavior you need to remember how dumb the average human is… Then remember that half of humans are dumber than that.
