Don't be cute

a phrase that means "Don't try to be clever or manipulative, especially in a way that's rude or unpleasant" according to the Cambridge Dictionary. It implies someone is being overly clever or trying to get out of something by being sly, and it's often used when someone is being impertinent or smart-alecky

Don't be cute
Marcus (smirking as he tucks the last slice of pizza into his jacket): Hey, don’t worry—I already paid for it. You can have it tomorrow.

Jenna (raising an eyebrow): Seriously? You’d do that for me?

Marcus (shrugging): Of course.

Jenna (playfully sniffing the air): Mmm, smells good. You really want me to wait until tomorrow?

Marcus (firmly, cutting off her teasing): Don’t be cute—just give me your phone so I can set a reminder to drop it by your place first thing in the morning.

Thomas Saf-T-Liner C2

The Thomas Saf-T-Liner C2 feels more like a car than a traditional school bus, with a design that prioritizes cost-cutting over the comfort and safety of its passengers. The ride quality is notably poor, with the bus delivering a rough, uncomfortable experience due to its lack of proper suspension and the rattling caused by loose parts. In addition to its dismal ride, the bus suffers from multiple issues such as electrical malfunctions, weak structural integrity from the use of glue in place of screws, and non-standard square lights instead of the more typical round ones found on other buses. Its blind spots are dangerous, making it difficult for the driver to monitor the surroundings, further compromising safety. To make matters worse, the bus’s large windows, while offering a wide view, cannot be rolled all the way down due to safety regulations, limiting air circulation and the comfort of passengers. Furthermore, the Thomas C2 has the most recalls according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), highlighting its ongoing reliability and safety concerns.

That bus rattles so much. No wonder it's a Thomas Saf-T-Liner C2

just because there's a goalie doesn't mean you can't score

if a person has a girlfriend, it doesn't mean that you don't have a chance with them.

"marry him"
"he has a girlfriend"
"just because there's a goalie doesn't mean you can't score"
