I must give credit to this idea to a site I've found invaluable through my whole D-Day/OW/STBX/Divorce process: Chump Lady. Look it up if you want to read empowering (and funny) advice from someone who'd been there.
Here are a few submissions I've either made there or heard my STBX actually say in the last two months:
"I thought the marriage was already over." (Would have been nice of you to tell me that.)
"You should have seen this coming." (Yes, I was just waiting around for you to shatter my trust in you.)
"You would like her. She's really a very nice person." (You're right! Silly me! Let's just all be friends!)
"This has been very difficult for her, too, you know." (Cry me a river.)
"Don't worry about how she'll treat our son/daughter. The children come first with her." (No, I'm fairly certain she does.)

Anyone else want to play?
