2. if others share your delusion

then you feel better about clinging to it.

3. Or help find somebody to blame for it. nt

4. And that's why people get so defensive

whenever someone remarks however mildly that they don't share it.

6. Have a blessed day.

10. I always want to respond to that with snark delivered in a super-cheerful voice, but

never know what to say.

11. A woman said that to me a week ago....after we had both helped each other with something...

and it didn't bother me at all, because when she said it, she meant "thank you",
and I think it was the nicest way she could think of to say it.

I don't like it when someone leaves a message on the phone that ends with
"have a blessed day", especially when they don't know me.

If it is said to everyone, as in a check-out line, I don't like it either.

But I have to admit, I AM selective as to when it bothers me.

7. Good one!

It's along the lines of my answer if someone tries to talk religion (in the "save me" sort of way): "I think religious belief is such a personal topic, don't you?"

Most take the hint from that, once in a while that is not quite enough but that is rare.

8. Sounds like a good way to take the air out of their balloon.

Although I still run into too many of those "rare" ones. Maybe not so rare in this part of the country. But I am going to use this one next time, and the next time, and the next time....
