You are cutting him off afterward so why bother with tact? Just say it and move on.

I don't think responding to bs with passive aggression makes you any any better.
Most of the PPs above are suggesting you be passive aggressive. To thebonebpp, don't teach your teen to be that way.
The best way to deal with someone who is or seems full of shit is to be honest without snark. If you can't do that because the person is your boss and you no know there'd be negative consequences, then you just ignore and move on.

Are you saying it about them, or to them?
If about them: say Larla is just not reliable.
To them: say Really? With eyebrow raised

I was coming to say this one! It may not be considered polite but it conveys the point in a non serious way.Anonymous wrote:Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining.

If I am trying to be gentle, I’ll say something like “Hmm. I don’t think that’s accurate.” Then, I move on because bullshit doesn’t need to be acknowledged to the point of debate. You both know it’s not true, so move on.
When I’m feeling less gentle: If they’re relating an unbelievable story, I ask if they’ve checked the batteries in their bullshit detector. If they’re feeding me a line, I tell them my bullshit detector is going off. It’s kind of funny and disarming. It’s a little more socially acceptable than “you’re completely full of shit.”

A slightly sing-song "if you say so" is gratingly annoying.

"Well, there's a lot to be said for that." (Said very flatly.)

If you're about to cut him off just say what you like.
I disagree. If you're trying to work on yourself use this as an opportunity to do so.

A pause, then "how interesting."
