People who have known me for awhile know that I can be brutally honest but if ask a specific question I always give them a warning of what's to come by using the term "well, in my opinion". Such as them: "Hey Mike, what do you think of the rims I just put on my ride"? Me: "Well in my opinion, they look like camel ass with diarrhea, but if you like them, what's it matter what I think"? Doesn't work well in making or keeping friendly relations but if you ask I will tell you! Would they prefer I lie to them and not tell them about the booger hanging from their nose? Probably! LOL One exception to that is when the Mrs. ask something such as Her: "Honey, which one of these dresses make my ass look slimmer"? Me: "Either one of them is fine because your ass looks great on it's own and doesn't need any help from a dress, besides when we get home from the party I'm going to rip it off you anyway"! I think that is called discretion.
