A special breed of passive-aggressive behavior that feels nice on the surface but is completely fake, emotionally empty, and served with a side of sarcasm. It’s the art of acting supportive, polite, or complimentary — but you know deep down they don’t mean a single word of it.
Think: Smiling shade. Pretty words, petty intentions. The emotional equivalent of a cardboard hug.
Examples:
“Oh wow, you wore that? So brave of you.”
“Thank you for your opinion. It's definitely... something.”
“Of course I’ll help. I love picking up other people’s slack!”

“Her compliment about my promotion was so hollow passive-aggressive, I almost thanked her before realizing it was pure shade.”

Get the Attracted to slight Aggressionmug. Doing everything to say fuck you to somebody without saying fuck you, or doing everything to indicate that somebody wants to pick a fight with somebody without actually starting one. Indirect agression isn't entirely passive, so it's not passive aggressive. The person is actively looking for trouble, they are just doing so in an indirect way.
