How to know a British person is about to upset you:
“I’m not being funny…”
“No offence…”
“With all due respect…”
“Please don’t take this the wrong way…”
“I don’t mean to be rude…”
“It’s nothing personal…”
“Don’t get me wrong…”
“I love you to bits, but…”
“No disrespect…”
“If I’m being completely honest…”
“Promise me you won’t get mad…”
“I don’t want to come across as mean…”
“This might sound awful…”
“I don’t want to upset you, but…”
