I am concerned that "thank you for your concern" is being revived on DU.

Can we at least develop a new phrase for discounting someone? Please.

23. Sorry, but your sources are unacceptable to REAL liberals here at DU
Why do you hate Kucinich so much? This is JUST like Vietnam and it's all Reagan's/Clinton's fault.

Somewhere a bridge is missing it's resident, <--(please tell me you realize that is part of our game;) )

6. I think "thank you for your concern" is a lot better than 'bite me.'
Since I tend to use 'bite me' maybe I should consider, 'thank you for your concern.'

11. How about...
"Your post makes me unconformable."

"I find your post dis-concerning, but I don't know how to articulate my feelings."

"I don't want to talk about that right now, and I don't want you to talk about that right now either."

"Check out these nude pictures of attractive people."

"I will send $25 dollars to your paypal account if you don't mention that again."

51. It's Right Up There With This One
It is right up there with "Your call is very important to us".

Whenever I am on hold and here THAT, I think, "No. My call is NOT very important to you. If it were, you would not have me sitting here on hold. You would have hired more staff."

53. When posters use that, they are really saying, "I think you're a troll."
That is against the rules, so they have to 'code' it.
