hitting the nail too squarely on the head


expressing oneself too directly, too plainly, insensitively.
i once considered buying a birthday card for my dad that made fun of his age. my dad was in his late 60’s. it portrayed a man in a car looking in a rear-view mirror with a panicked expression, and seeing the grim reaper. the message printed on the mirror was, “objects shown in mirror may be closer than they appear.” i thought it was hilarious, but i thought it was “hitting the nail too squarely on the head.” it’s implication was too direct.
