[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]This is a pretty standard cliché but I really loathe when someone says to me “that’s not a bad idea“. It’s so condescending. You mean, “that’s a good idea, you ass?” Is what I feel like responding.[/quote] I say this often. It's not condescending. Sometimes an idea just isn't good. It may not be awful, or bad, but it doesn't rise to a good idea we should pursue. I often follow up with, that's not a bad idea, but we need to consider X, Y and Z.[/quote] I'll go one better. I sometimes say it to myself, not anyone else. It means possibly I hadn't even fully considered the option before, but on further reflection, it does have some merits, but not entirely enough, yet, to fully commit to it. Final resolution TBD.[/quote]
