you don't even know me

The default response used by someone who is confronted with a truth about themselves that they would rather not face.

This phrase is commonly used by addicts, those with low self esteem and just about anyone else whose biggest fear is that someone else will notice their problem and offer to help.

Using this phrase successfully pushes away anyone wanting to help, and the user ironically ensures that indeed, nobody will ever know them.

In another ironic twist, if someone you know well says this phrase to you, then it means either:

1) they've been lying to you about who they really are (in which case it's their own fault that you don't know them), or

2) they have suddenly and fundamentally changed in the few seconds prior to telling you that you don't know them (in which case they also don't know themselves).

However, the case is usually that they're unobservant, self-absorbed, don't like that you were so easily able to identify their issues and resent the fact that they are unable to pay attention to anything long enough to 'know' it. They assume that everyone else is like this too, which is why they seem so shocked when uttering this phrase.

"I think you've been ignoring your family and you should spend more time with them."
"You don't even know me!"

"I think your drinking is negatively affecting your performance at work."
"You don't even know me!"

"I think you should take a shower because you stink."
"You don't even know me!"

I Want to Know What Love Is

Famous power ballad by Foreigner. If you only ever listen to one power ballad in your lifetime, listen to "Wind Of Change" by The Scorpions. But if you listen to two, check this one out.

I gotta take a little time,
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines,
In case I need it when I'm older
Now this mountain I must climb,
Feels like the world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds I see love shine,
It keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life
There's been heartache and pain
I don't know
If I can face it again
Can't stop now,
I've travelled so far,
To change this lonely life
I want to know what love is,
I want you to show me
I want to feel what love is,
I know you can show me
I'm gonna take a little time,
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide,
It looks like love
Has finally found me
In my life
There's been heartache and pain
I don't know
If I can face it again
Can't stop now,
I've travelled so far,
To change this lonely life
I want to know what love is,
I want you to show me
I want to feel what love is,
I know you can show me
I want to know what love is,
I want you to show me
(And I wanna feel)
I want to feel what love is
(And I know)
I know you can show me

I've covered wars, ya' know

The single most bad-ass'D quote of the century.
Orignated from Xbox360s game, Dead Rising, afterwards it soon meant eveything that is cool, to an amazing pick-up line.

Jessie: Do you know how to use it?
Frank West: Kinda'.
Frank West: I've covered wars, ya' know.

Scott: Hey Josh, I've covered wars, ya' know.
Josh: Let's make out!
Scott: Score.

I Know There’s Something Going On

I can see that it won't be long
You grow cold when you keep holding on
You know you've changed and your words, they lie
That's something you can't deny
I call, you're not at home
You're home, but you're not alone
If you wanna leave then why don't you say it
Your love has gone anyway
I know there's something going on
I know there's something going on
I know it won't be long
Won't be long before you're gone
There's something going on
There's something going on

I know a good thing must come to an end
But it's hard to take losing a friend
I know what you think and what's in your mind
So darling, look, why pretend?
I know there's something going on
I know there's something going on
I know it won't be long
It won't be long before you're gone
There's something going on
There's something going on
There's something going on
There's something going on
I know there's something going on
I know there's something going on
I know it won't be long
It won't be long before you're gone
There's something going on
There's something going on
There's something going on
There's something going on
I know there's something
I know there's something
I know there's something
I know there's something
I know there's something
I know there's something
I know there's something

Yeah, yeah... I know

To begrudgingly affirm your understanding of another person's criticism.

Hym "Yeah, yeah... I know... Always with the 'doing things' with you conscientious types."

Iam "Sorry, we had a rough night... I was not being taken seriously enough in a situation that was potentially life threatening and I needed to vent my frustrations."

Hym "That's the problem with people. They don't take things seriously until it's too late. Maybe if I would ever get some recognition people would take the things I say was a greater degree of seriousness."

Iam "Who are we to..."

Hym "Who is anyone!? There a plenty of people are taken seriously who shouldn't be. Who the fuck are they? What have they done? Why not us?"

Iam "Telling the difference isn't all that easy. We tried our best to relay the information that we thought would be most beneficial."

Hym "And we were largely ignored. At their own detriment"

Iam "Well, we did all we could do. Hopefully everyone is fine."

Hym "We wouldn't have to hope if people would just listen to us. They just don't listen..."
