What do you dislike?

Mine is when you explain something to someone and they say, "so what you're saying is -"

I often end up trying to correct something I didn't even say. I have a work colleague who is good at this. 🐄
Don't get me wrong, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but this phrase is sometimes used to slightly twist your argument and misrepresents your point. It's like a conversational speed bump that can feel patronising because they seem to be watering down what you say.

I also dislike pineapple.

My niece was trying to explain the color of hair, one of her friend has. She kept trying to describe it and not well. After a minute or two my husband just asked her. Are you trying to say that the drapes don't match the carpet? She was so embarrassed. 😂
