SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE....

Does this phrase ever annoy you? Why do people bother saying it when in reality...nobody really believes them? And if some of your best friends are (fill in blank) do you really have to say it? Shouldn't it be obvious? I thought it was a dead phrase/saying but apparently it still gets a lot of play. hmmm


Most commonly used as:



some of my best friends are gay

some of my best friends are black

some of my best friends are atheists

some of my best friends are liberals


And here is a new one I've recently heard

some of my best friends have had abortions. confuse say what?

the people that continually voice things like this must be very aware of the impression of them that others have, but instead of changing their attitude they try to get away with words.

It's worse when they say:

"I'm not a homophobe, some of my best friends are atheists"
or
"I'm not racist, some of my best friends have had abortions"

I wanna slap those people who even say that.

"Well some of my best friends are black, women, Jewish, Mexican and gay" and yet you diss all those sects you claim you have friends in. The fuck is that?

I always assumed that he was Jewish himself and that his behavior was a manifestation of self loathing & denial.

It depends on the context.

I've said, "Some of my best friends are British" to a British guy before just in passing.

But when someone says it to somehow make their hateful views seem less hateful. Like "I don't approve of gay marriage" but "some of my best friends are gay", I just think bitch please . lol
