“I can’t.”
Translation: “I can. I just refuse to.”

My favorite. "Can't" = physically incapable, as in "I can't hover off the ground without some kind of hovering device." "Won't/don't wanna/etc." = "I refuse to."

My favorites are a tie between this:

“I tell it how it is.”
Translation: “I am being vicious and mean-spirited, in the name of ‘brutal honesty.’”

And this:

“J/k”
Translation: “I was being serious, but your negative reaction prompted me to change my tune.”

I favor the latter because there's a girl at work who totally fits that to a T.

I also like "God told me to." O RLY?

God told me something about you, but I'm not going to tell you what it is, because he told me you can't handle it.

Remember that one?
