Disagree to Agree 

What you say when you are in the middle of an argument and realize you are both saying the same thing in different ways.
Bobby: Richard Bachman has to be the greatest writer ever.

Ricky: Sorry bro, but I have to say that Stephen King is much better.

Bobby: Ummm, those are the same auth... nevermind. Let's just disagree to agree on that one.

Disagree to disagree to agree 

Disagreeing with the phrase “disagree to agree”. This phrase makes no logical sense!
Jenny, the coiner of the statement “disagree to agree,” disagrees to disagree to disagree to agree. I hope you are confused.

I graciously pretend to agree. 

Abbreviation: IGPTA. A polite and playful way to acknowledge someone with whom one disagrees (especially a member of the opposite sex)
Mary: "I think this artwork would look so much better on THIS wall." John: "I graciously pretend to agree."

Disagree to agree 

The original expression for the term “agree to disagree”. Derived in the UK and most commonly used by the royal family.
“Excuse me sir, but we are just going to have to disagree to agree”

I have read and agree to the terms of use 

Pretty much the biggest lie on the planet. People usually see this message when trying to sign up for something or the other. People are supposed to actually read through the terms of use, but no one does. Useless waste of paper or pixels.
People who say they have never lied in their lives are probably lying right there. I guarantee that none of them have ever checked the "I have read and agree to the terms of use" box after actually reading the terms of use.

Agree to disagree 

What someone says when they want to end an argument, essentially concluding that both parties think they are right and that they will get nowhere in arguing.
Guy: It doesn't matter what a judge's background or opinion is when he/she is making a decision.
Girl: But what they believe has a huge effect on the verdict; nothing is objective!
Guy: But to be a judge you must be impartial.
Girl: Aaaah, you just don't get it.
Guy: Can't we just agree to disagree? This argument is really petty. We both seem to be set in our argument.
