A Reddit user asked for people to share the 'polite' ways to say 'screw' you.

The fact that the insult is veiled also gives you plausible deniability so that the issue doesn’t become an HR problem.

"I started using this after seeing Gene Wilder as Willie Wonka say it to Charlie ".

"Good afternoon !" was an insult in the 1800s , evidenced by Ebenezer Scrooge's use of it in Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol .

"I like what the late Queen would say in response if someone said something inappropriate." "I'll pray for you" is self-righteous and condescending, especially if that person is not Christian .".
