What is interesting when you say something to someone you
don't mean it to be insulting, but it comes may
come across as insulting, like when someone says to you,
you've got such a pretty face, I'm.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Not looking at you. It was the tone because I
remember the infliction. I remember my own mother to say, oh, really, no,
she did not, she did not, she didn't mean that.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
No, she would say, oh, Moira, you've got such a
pretty face.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
And I'd be like this kill when.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
Girls used to come up and goes, Trev such a
good friend right in the heart. Oh thanks, I'm gonna
go step in front of this trade. What a great personality.

Speaker 2 (00:44):

hot friend?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
What about you? Look? Well? Oh that's really bad. It is,
isn't it?

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Because I remember there was this one guy who used
to always say to me, you look, you're looking well,
and I would take that as I'm looking round or
walk and well fed and out to pasture.

an insult.

My boys say that to you sometimes, but they really
want to get under my skin. Thanks Champ. Thanks, I
know we're you sleep.

Speaker 3 (01:52):

I used to call or miss missus. Oh sorry, I
used to get that a long wrong a lot.

you say that to your other half, Princess, yeah, you
need to calm down, Princess. Yeah, I think it was
the calm down.
