I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin' 

What you use when you are trying to insinuate something and they pick up on it. It's like a get out of free jail card for those moments.

Lucy: Are you trying to say I'm fat?

Ashley: I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.

I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin' 

Trying to let someone thing you're "not sayin'", when, in fact, you most certainly ARE "sayin'".

Trying to make it seem like you are not saying anything unkind or questionable, but then admitting that you are. It happens so fast, no one will be the wiser...
Beezus : Does this pair of jeggings make my ass look enormous ?
Ramona: Well, maybe a little.

Beezus : Dang - for reals ?
Ramona: Hey, I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'

I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin' 

Basically means "I'm not implying anything, I'm just making an observation". Which of course doesn't mean that the person *isn't* in fact saying, i.e. implying.
Mitt Romney sure made a 180 on national healthcare... I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.

I'm just sayin'

The irrefutable way to diffuse any situation. Saying "I'm just sayin'" is to be used immediately after a burn, or after a distasteful opinion is given. There is no response to "I'm just sayin'," that cant be followed up with another "I'm just sayin'"

with the proper use of this tool, it is possible to deliver a rude comment or burn and have it bounce off simply as an opinion disguised as an objective opinion, and who can argue with you over an opinion that you dont apparently support.
-" Hey man, Stacey didn't call me last night, I think she was with another guy."
- " Well remember the way she was in high school? she was a huge slut."
-"DUDE!!! Thats my fiancé!"
- " I know, I'm just sayin'"
- " Well ok, but she's not a slut anymore."
-" I'm just sayin.'"
