You used to be more honest. Back when you instructed me to Kiss your A$$ [’KMA’, was how you put it], you didn’t jitterbug and dodge all over the place. You had the integrity to admit you said what you said - and meant it.
Now you’re claiming you said it but didn’t say it, or something to that effect. Honesty is always the better policy. Say what you mean and then either stand by it or apologize. But to say the words don’t mean what they mean, and then refuse to reveal what exactly they DO mean...that’s just silly.
