writer’s defense when using factual information from research that was not clearly cited from its original source.
This essay about Einstein is amazing but what part of the paragraph was his knowledge and what part was from the book? I’m sure he'll say "I swear I did some research," but I need to see which information comes from the book.

something you say to somebody when you don't really give a shit about their story. this is a phrase usually used when somebody else won't shut the fuck up about something you don't give a fuck about. you usually let them talk for a little while but when they get to the point of being annoying, that's when you tell them, "Say I swear to God." In short, it's just another way to let somebody else know you don't care. When you tell them to say "I swear to God," they usually get the message right away after saying "I swear to God," and shortly afterwards realizing that it means you don't care.

Me: No way! Say I swear to God! (in a cocky ass, sarcastic manner)

Melissa: I swear to God! (realizing you don't care)
