"Honestly, I don't even know what we're supposed to study."
"Let's be honest, when was the last time we hung out?"
What the fuck does honesty have to do with these situations? Why would you lie in these situations? Why are these 2 expressions being so abused without any real reason to be so? Consider the opposite:
"I know what I'm supposed to study, but I'm pretending I don't, even though we're here studying for this subject at 8 AM at the library."
"Let's be DISHONEST about the last time we hung out."
Do you all lie so fucking much these days you have to add honestly or let's be honest every time you tell the truth, cause holy shit.
