I need to tell someone something important

Because I anticipate this announcement will not go over well, I've been procrastinating. Any suggestions on how to delicately break the news?
Honestly is there ever a right moment to say what needs to be said? Trying to spare those it might hurt or feel uneasy when you speak those words is admirable. But for the sake of your sanity it's probably better just say whatever is on your mind.

Don't approach it like it's a "joke". That might seem obvious to you but many people circle around towards a bit of humor ....It also sounds as if you don't really want feed back from your announcement. So a very simple direct approach probably works best...

I always find a letter works best... Preferably posted from a different country

So far the only solution I've found for procrastination is putting yourself to work

Don't think about it too much, just spit it out.

wow that is a tough one.. it is all really dependent on the news and who you have to tell. everyone takes news differently. you know the person better than we do

@theowl: I know you're right. I'm just not in the mood to deal with someone's effed up attitude and sense of entitlement.
SW-User
oh.. yeah those are kind of a headache to deal with.

Depends what the something is and who the someone is.

Telling a neighbour that their Budgie died while they were away on vacation is one thing.
Telling your brother that his daughter came to see you and is considering a sex change is something else !!!

Somewhere quiet and just say it

First assess if you even need to tell them. If you do, tear off gve bandaid and let her rip!

Say it honestly and directly. Easier in the long run.
