Minty

A Minty is quite simply a statement made by an individual, often an offer of goods or services that is almost immediately retracted.

The origin is unknown as is the benefit to the individual doing the Minty. The backlash is often negative but like the boy who cried wolf, the inevitable is the Minty won't be taken serious

Mr X - Guys and gals, I am nipping out at lunch to buy some fizzy pop and an egg and onion sandwich. Would anyone like something from the coffee shop when I am out.

Office Colleagues - Awesome, flat whites all round.

Mr X - Off that, I am not getting you anything

Office Colleagues - You twat. He has only gone and got us with a Minty
