Any statement that begins with the phrase "in all honesty" or "to tell you the truth" or "honestly" merits doubt.

Any statement that begins with the phrase, "with all due respect" probably means that a disrespectful comment is on the way.

Any statement that begins with the phrase "don't be mad" most certainly means that for this second you can have ESP and assume some annoying information is about to grace your presence.
