Actually, yes 

A moment in time where another person says something that sounds like complete bullshit to you, and then you realize it's true after starting to call them out for it.

Usually followed up by a laugh from the other person, knowing you were trying to contradict their truth.

Well yes, but actually no 

A phrase often used to point out instances of technicality, ambiguity, or hypocrisy.

1. A technicality. The meaning of the phrase in this context is "well yes, technically you are correct about superficial elements, but actually no, you are wrong about the substance in some way that invalidates the premise."

2. Ambiguity. The meaning of the phrase in this context is "well yes, some elements of this that have merit, but actually no, there are further details that must be considered."

3. Hypocrisy. The meaning of the phrase in this context is "well yes, I will say something to you to temporarily satisfy you, but actually no, my true actions will go against what I've said."
