I just heard what you said - now why are you saying having said that ?! Annoying !
If someone is making a point and now they're going to say the opposite better to say "conversely ..." It sounds better and is clear they are aware of intentionally saying the opposite. Although I've heard people say "having said that ..." when they're not making an opposite statement !
as in, "I reached out to her and we discussed....."
For goodness sake! Did you call her, visit her, text her, e-mail her.......or "reach out" and grab her by the neck?

I was taught from a very young age to speak clear, concise English using full words and sentences.
Anything else was not acceptable.
I just saw another word that irks me quickly.
The word is *government* not *gubment*, in my opinion if you want your opinion to be taken seriously then present yourself as such.
