I’m not saying I’m just saying you know what I’m saying

The ability to successfully suggest an unpopular point of view without revealing a position of your own.
Mike didn’t like Donald’s plan so he hedged by telling his friends, “I’m not saying I’m just saying you know what I’m saying.”

I just thought you should know...

Did the teacher forget to assign homework?

Was your neighbor complaining about overgrown hedges?

I just thought you should know(IJTYSK) will ALWAYS be there to relay these messages!

IJTYSK is typically used as a preceding comment, meant to soften the blow of inevitable bad news.

Usage of IJTYSK as a trailing comment is not uncommon, thought more in line with southern classic "Bless your heart"
"Class dismissed!"

"I just thought you should know...you didn't assign weekend homework"

"I just finished my first 5k!"

"I just thought you should know...over 5 million people run a 5k at least once a month."

"This restaurant is great, the owner is so friendly."

"I just thought you should know...he doesn't pay his taxes and cheats on his wife."

"I just made an entry in to the Urban Dictionary!"

"I just thought you should know...anybody can add anything to Urban Dictionary, it's not an accomplishment. It's like bragging that you got accepted to Facebook."

One of the greatest insults of all time. Originally said by Johnathan Andrew Wicker, Junior on June, 18, 2019
Johnathan said this to Edan, "Okay, goodbye, Edan. I just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed the good times we've had. However, I truly hate you--like, I absolutely hate your fucking guts," Edan killed himself shortly after

Gambler—-“fuck yeah bro, this shit is real!”
