Corrected Condolences

Recently I was offered “sincere condolences.”

Which brought up the question: Are there “insincere condolences?”

Condolences aren’t condolences if they aren’t sincere.

They are probably platitudes.

Perhaps you could offer “sincere platitudes.”

“Simon I like to offer you “sincere platitudes” on the death of the chipmunk.

Sounds good.
