Whichever it is:
“The lady doth protest too much, methinks”
or “Me thinks thou doth protest too much”
Do you come across occasions when you want to say it to someone? Do you remember your parents, or whoever else saying that to you?

Every time I am talking to a woman. “You are such a jerk, blah blah”.
“Why have you been talking to me all night?”
@Imadethisupwithnoforethought actually, just most times.
It is proportional, the more a woman seems to like me, the more likely she is to hang around for a really long time, ignore everyone else, and say disparaging things she suspects about my character for me to refute.
@flo Are you protesting that you never have done this? :)
Lately, when the president tries his increasingly tiresome strategy of blaming somebody else for his shortcomings.
I say it. I can’t remember the last time I said it, but I definitely use the expression. Probably comes up only 2 or 3 times a year, but it isn’t odd to me to use or hear the saying.
In a Facebook discussion about giving and taking offense earlier today. This person repeatedly argued that Muslims and Nazis were the same and claimed that people who don’t like to give offense are hypocrites. Something about us picking and choosing which groups we don’t want to offend, based on which group(s) we liked. I told her it seemed an awful lot more like it was about which groups she liked. I later found out she’s a white supremacist…
When I watch Cop shows where the thugs always say repeatidly that they are innocent.
Prison is full of them. ( granted in rare cases some are innocent).
Interview a Cop and they will tell you that too much protesting their innocence signals otherwise.
Never, I despise bible speak & those who talk like that i’d like to crush a melon on their heads.
I said it on fb last june. It means someone is being disingenuous which this person was, then she blocked me. yay.
I have a colleague that is always “off sick”. She goes to great lengths to prove she is genuinely ill recently going as far as posting a picture of her thermometer reading on Facebook. Firstly, if you’re feeling like shit you don’t give a crap about Facebook and secondly, we all know you dipped that thermometer in your tea love!!!
