"I guess it's somebody's time of the month?"
It's statements like this that make me wonder how women's prisons aren't overflowing. If somebody said something this dismissive to me I would be surely tempted to strangle them.
"I'm not rude, I'm just honest."
Or maybe I'm just autistic and therefore can't understand social etiquette perfectly, so don't even know what I said was offensive.

People who say they are just 'brutally honest' are more interested in being brutal than honest. it is entirely possible to be honest without being hurtful.
As a corollary, it seems like the "What? I'm just being honest" crowd are also people who are very sensitive to any perceived criticism.

There’s honesty and tactlessness. People have forgotten how to be tactful (or they don’t care anymore).
And now you know why you don't have any friends. Hey, just being honest.
"I speak what is on my mind", like that is a good quality. They think that makes them look smart. What looks smart is being able to say something in the perfect way as not to be offensive to others.
A statement like this could be open for debate. I guess it would depend on the situation.
This is equivalent to "I'm not mean, you are just a Whiny Cry Baby!" In the school yard
Prefer to be told the truth than lied to. Not sure why this is an issue?
Because this is not about lying. This is using the excuse of 'saying the truth' for stating rude opinions no one asked for. Example: what do you think about this jacket? Truth: I don't think it's flattering on you and it looks a bit tight. Maybe try a bigger size? Rude: you're too fat to wear that. You should accept that you're just not pretty. The last one is not an objective truth because everyone sees that different. One person's fat is another person's curvy. That makes it and opinion that was not what was asked for. It's just an excuse to make rude comments and put others down. And even worse when blurting out opinions without even asked to do so.

I AM sarcastic & rude. I make no excuses & admit it. I had a s****y life being nice & polite and got walked all over. If someone takes offense at what I say, it's most likely they're mad I pointed something out about themselves that they didn't like to admit or acknowledge. At my job, I'm professional & courteous as required, of course. But that's it.
Ok, you’re not rude. Just tactless. Oh, isn’t that another word for rude?
You are only being honest if somebody asks for your opinion. Otherwise, you are being rude.
Look them right in the eye, smile and say “of course you’re only being honest. It just proves we’re meant to be friends.”
"Other people have it worse than you."
My grandmother used to say "there are starving children in Africa". I loved her, but we lived in Brazil. There were starving children in our building.
"Make sure to hit that like button and subscribe!"
"If you can't handle me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best."
"Have you tried [insert some unproven alternative medicine method]? It really helped my mom's cousin's son-in-law!"
"Everything happens for a reason."
Yep, cause and effect. For instance, the reason I hit you with that brick, is because you said "everything happens for a reason"
"It was just a joke."
"Live, Laugh, Love."
After asking a teacher if you can go to bathroom:
"I don't know, can you?"
LIKE LINDA THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO BE GOING ON ABOUT GRAMMAR I GOTTA PEE HERE
"There is so much happiness in the world, so don't be depressed!"
"So? Everyone goes through it."
"Are you on your period?"
"Deal with it."
Not crazy about this comment either. If someone is asking for advice ... this comment is so dismissive.
"Just love yourself."
Yeah right, loving myself is so easy especially when everyone point out my shortness, my dumbness and how stupid I am. Who would’nt love themself if every flaw was pointed out? /s

"With all due respect" 99% of the time usually means the next thing out of their mouth is going to be something totally disrespectful.
OOOHHH! I KNOW ONE! Where was it.. ah, yes,, "I am making 100 US dollars an hour working from home. I never imagined that it was honest to goodness yet my closest companion is earning $16,000 a month by working on a laptop, that was truly astounding for me, she prescribed for me to attempt it simply. Everybody must try this job now by just using this website.. Www.Payathome7.Com"
"It is what it is" freaking infuriates me. It's like a meaningless tautology.
Yes, Eris, yes! It's hard enough to hear that after routine griping. [Me] "I wanted that job, thought I had a shot, and they didn't even do that courtesy call to say they hired someone else." [Audience of none] "It is what it is." It's even harsher when said after one bares one's soul hoping for, dunno, a suggestion? An objective-ISH opinion? Maybe even -- Why not? -- sympathy? [Me, in a rare display of vulnerability] "I'm more discouraged / angry / sad / depressed than I've ever been..." OR "I don't see a way out of this..." OR "Am I crazy?" [Audience of none] "It is what it is." People who spout that faux-philosophical observation must not realize how dismissive it sounds. So dismissive it borders on cruelty.

"Just don't be anxious, there's nothing to panic about." Gee, thanks Sharon I'll just flip the switch in my brain and turn my mental illnesses off.
"I know, right?" The most obnoxious phase ever uttered. 1) I don't care that you know 2) why are you asking me if you're right if you know something?!
Oh man, you would probably hate conversing with me. That's sad.
