Southern Fluff
The extra conversational padding people add before saying what they really mean, typically used in the south. It’s a mix of politeness, hesitation, and beating around the bush that can soften a message, avoid conflict, or make something sound nicer than it actually is.
“She gave me so much Southern Fluff before telling me she couldn’t make it.”
“He told me he was giving me a ‘really competitive rate’ for 10 minutes before telling me the price. Classic Southern Fluff.”
