"Bless your heart" is now overused...
Aug 24, 2021, 8:44 AM
|
|
It's become a phrase people think is a slick southern insult which they crowbar into conversation when they don't agree with something you said. It can be used when you do or say something dumb, but in actuality it is mostly used by maternal figures to express condolences when something disappointing or sad happens to you.
And when did men start saying it? Please stop.
Go Tigers.

And so condesending. Cant stand to hear…

people judge others like that, especially when they simply say “bless” with that “Im better than you” attitude.

Would Grandmother say, "Bless their (pea-picking) heart!"?***

BTW, that TD Fairy has been flitting about recently. Apparently, if your post involves an opposing view to vaccinations, it TDs your post ... Bless its heart.

Interesting! I never hear the phrase

I'm usually clear, succinct, and right in my conversations. I do hear other phrases from time to time, almost always petty mischaracterizations though.

The phrase has multiple meanings.
Aug 24, 2021, 9:51 AM
|
|
It may be used to express sympathy as you pointed out, or as an insulting way of saying "someone is an idiot".

I'd bet, like, at least a million bucks that Lowcntry_Tiger® has his initials in monogram sticker form on the back glass of his car.

Time to stop saying RIP. It's to late to pray for someone after they die and it is umbilical.
