don't take it personally

A phrase people use as a disclaimer to make an excuse to say or do something rude or mean to you to prevent you from having a poor self-image or so there won't be repercussions and make you feel they still like you even though they probably don't.

The words Urban Dictionary Editors in Emails tell you when your definition doesn’t make it to the publish section, due to lack of information on the word. They say this but most still take it personally, Even though it is our fault it wasn’t published, this is why most definitions about sex may not get in, it’s also their way of saying sorry

The email check of shame. When you realize that all hopes and dreams of publishing that one definition on Urban Dictionary that made you die of laughter to yourself while stuck in quarantine are gone, gone, gone.
Phone: *makes email notification sound*
Me: *drops everything and opens email faster than the speed of light*
Email: A few volunteer editors read your definition and decided to not publish it. Don't take it personally!
Me: Well that's just great.
