"I'm not an expert or anything, but..."
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Which is always followed by a statement that confirms that that intro was unnecessary. Big Grin

In Spanish we have "No es por nada, pero..." which means, "Not for nothing, but..."

What the hell does that even mean?

We also have, "Con todo respeto, pero..." which means, "With all due respect, but..."

It seems the word "but" gives you license to be an ass.
