parapractic 

Noun--a person who uses a joking tone, but really means what they say. They will never admit the truth, but you just know...

Billy is always saying, "I hate you! Just kidding!" But it makes me wonder.... He's such a parapractic.

petty paraphrasing

to state something written or spoken in different words, especially in a shorter and simpler form to make the meaning clearer but with emotions moreso than logic

Person One: How would you paraphrase the book, “Old Yeller?”
Person Two: kid murks his dog because it had rabies and the kid didn’t even try to take the dog to a veterinary clinic!
Person One: There’s more to the book than that!
Person Two: You said paraphrase, you didn’t say anything about petty paraphrasing!
