sir – Has anyone else noticed that “No” in many cases now means “Yes”?

Lately, people being interviewe­d on television, when asked, “Do you like it?” will answer, “No, it is splendid!”

“Is this to your taste?” – “No, it is spot on!”

“What do you think of this situation?” – “No, it is fine!” Tore Fauske
