IGPTA

I graciously pretend to agree. A playful way to acknowledge someone with whom one disagrees (especially a member of the opposite sex).

Usage Note: "I graciously pretend to agree" differs from the similar "Let's agree to disagree" in that IGPTA grants decision-making authority on the matter to the opposing party; whereas LATD leaves the decision unsettled.

Mary: "I think the new artwork would look so much better on the north wall." John: "IGPTA."
