fair and balanced

The slogan for FOX news. Often means "not one sided or biased" But Fox new is primarly a conservative asshole network, so i guess it doesnt really apply here.

Hey Jon, let's see how many times this douche bag Bill O'reilly says "Fair and Balanced" in a five minute period.

Savoir faire

Literally - Know how to do

Usually used, as most French terms - je ne sais pas, ennui, to describe that certain something that is beyond normal language.
Nowdays it is often referred to (incorrectly) as X-factor
However Savior faire suggests a certain style, accomplishment and refinement. A person who has Savoir faire is naturally suave and classy, or has the innate abiilty to do or say the right thing at the right time.

The great Irish wit, Oscar Wilde, has considered to have Savoir faire, although he probably would have said that he was more Laisser faire (i.e. lazy, disinterested or libertine)

or in a more modern context;
The actor George Clooney can be said to have Savoir faire

fair enough

OK, I agree.

OR

That's reasonable, even though I'm not sure I agree completely.

"When you graded my test, you added my score incorrectly.

I see, you're right. Fair enough."

OR

"I think think Stephen King's prose is quite a bit less effective than you think!

OK. Fair enough."
