What is with people using the phrase “just sayin”? “Your car is ugly, just sayin…” So you form an opinion of something and then voice this opinion and at the end of your sentence you add…”just sayin.” Is this suppose to absolve you from any implication that may arise form your opinion being voiced? For fuck sakes. It’s like the phrase “with all due respect” by saying this before a sentence, you are telling me that you are about to either, 1. say something disrespectful, or 2. say something very, very stupid, and you think this will get you out of any sort of trouble you may be in after saying what you have to say.
For the love of God, if you have to add “just sayin” at the end of what it is you are saying, please, just do the rest of us a favour and DON’T FUCKING SAY IT!!!!!!!! —Don’t Just Say

It’s like, well you know, like I don’t know, like it’s like a new like saying like you know what I mean.
I will agree it’s much more annoying at the end of a sentence…
when starting with it, it can make a little more sense.
I prefer “no offense..”
What you’re describing is a subsection of the population who face life with passive-aggression. One of the hallmarks of passive-aggressive people is that they honestly think they fool the rest of us.
Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, man.
At least they aren’t using the word “like” between every sentence and breath, just saying.
I think OP needs to relax… just sayin.
Just sayin is way better than “no offense”
“No offense” usually is an announcement that something offensive is about to or has spewed from someone’s entitled gob before their little brain is in gear. It is exactly in the same category as “just sayin’ “. Some opinions should be kept behind zipped lips, usually those uttered by people who should just mind their own business. Just sayin’…

People grow out of that. It is kid talk. Nobody over 20 says that crap.
Love the links sista:)
“I’m just saying… if you play with matches, you’re gonna get burned”
or
“if you play with matches, you’re gonna get burned… just sayin’ “
I definitely prefer the former.
The latter sounds stupid and more like….. ‘you’re an idiot’ than an ‘explanation’.
No offense is more passive aggressive to me
It comes from the Afro-centric dictionary, in the same vein as “ferr real, ferr, real” or “you feel me?”
y’nowhamsayn?
“Just sayin” comes from black people? Really? Pretty sure they are English words.. but thanks for outing yourself
It’s annoying and just plain stupid. For some reason people think it’s witty or somehow drives a point home … when there is no point.
Look at sebastian for example. Fer real.
yes when i hear “no offense” i dig my heels in and hunker down for a tongue lashing… just saying..
Like, *literally*?

Jesus, I need a gf. That turned me on.
Just sayin’!
Lol
it’s a eupherism, just saying, so that you will know that, i’m just sayin’.
Didn’t we have a bitch about this some time ago where we came up with our fave quotes and added ‘just sayin”? I LMFAO at that one: “I have a dream… just sayin'”, “To be, or not to be… just sayin'”, “she turned me into a newt! Just sayin'”… >sigh<... that was fun... y'know, like... just sayin'
Some people I know transmute the phrase into “just saiyan”, which I’m sure only a handful of people on here will get.
Made me google it, O-man. Domo arigato. I say “Just Saipan” , but only after I’ve had to storm a Pacific Island occupied by fanatical troops of the Emperor determined to fight to the death.
How was Randi? or has he not yet been.
Brend,
I figured you more for a battlestar guy and the
“just cylon”
to be or not to be … just sayin’
Rosie, that rings of the adolescent game of adding ‘…in bed’ to whatever the chinese fortune cookie says.
“In the long run, keeping a steady course will pay off….. in bed”
“A penny saved is a penny earned… in bed”
Randi was absolutely amazing. I actually got to shake his hand (which I *have* since washed :P).
my favorite is “I mean this in the nicest possible way, but….”
I have annoying friends that say that all too often…and they are well over 20. I need new friends.
