I was just saying - 10/30/06 11:00 PM
Lately I note this expr used in mitigating response to an unwarranted umbrage, eg
John: What a colorful tie
Bill: So you think it's too bright? That I'm trying to draw attention? You think I'm a showoff?
John: I was just sayin'
I am wondering if you also have picked up on this usage, would you agree with my observation, or given my somewhat inadequate vocabulary, how could I have better described the phenom--thanks all
