sarcasm
attitude: some people can think like this (see more)
It can be like this: Someone (e.g. Susan) says something about something to someone (e.g. Natalie). Susan doesn't think like this.
Susan doesn't want to say with words what she thinks.
Susan thinks like this: Natalie can know what I think about this something if I say something like this. Natalie can know what I feel.
After this, Susan can feel something good. Natalie can feel something good.
