Is that even a compliment...?

[Rusman]

Any guy who gets mistaken for a girl needs to grow a moustache. Although that leads to another odd compliment.

"You remind me of the 70s". Great...

Doesn't work, I have a moustache and a beard .

This was said to me by a friend of a friend who I only really talked to on facebook.

"Oh hi, You really didn't seem like the person to go out" - Thanks for that...

 

[Gerazzi]

"you're cute"
I mean, c'mon.
that's pretty much saying:
"you're androgynous"

 

[Mezzarine]

Right...

Heeeeey, what the... Jenny whats that about? Weird, yes but Creepy? Is this because I talked about Tea on one of your threads in one post... just once.

No, it's what's known as a joke. Although you are very strange and it does concern me.

"I don't care what anyone else says, I think you're ok."

That ALWAYS works on people. Just plant the seed and say no more. It'll fester.

I told a girl she had torpedoes big enough to sink the bismarck as a compliment (I thought it was nice to tell a girl she had a nice chest.). She knocked the glasses clear off my face. I don't really understand why she took it as an insult.

If genuinely don't understand why that is unbelievably rude, then you deserved deserve a smack on purely Darwinian grounds.

I genuinely don't understand. If you know the reason then please explain because I thought I was being nice.

Making comments about a woman's breasts, especially about their size, is generally considered rude, offensive behavior, and this ain't some new-fangled feminist idea. If you'd tried it 100 years ago, you would have been smacked too. The fact that you claim to be unaware of this means that you are either a troll, or that I would have to spend far to much time backfilling the astonishing gaps in your social education. Either way, I would rather sleep and play WoW than attempt to extricate your head.

I take it some women just doesn't like some idiot sleazeball, that they don't know, to comment/compliment on their chest.

How does this surprise you?

I've been told: "Wow. If I was a boy, I'd go gay for you."

I was quite flattered.

There is one question, though: Did the female that proposed you with such a compliment, actually want to date you? "If I was a boy I'd date you, but I am currently a girl, and I find it hard for girl/boy relationships. You know, the social structure, the heterophobia and the anti-hetero campaigns in the urban environments."

Honestly we've known each other for at least four years. I don't know much about social interaction to the point that I admit I'm socially retarded (caused at least in part by me being autistic). I'm trying to get better but there are still some things that lose me.

I think the most backward compliment is when someone says "oh youre pretty" followed by "in your own way".

Need I say more?

 

[hannarr]

I got told I have sexy collar bones.
That was a "lolwut" moment.

 

[ICantBelieveItGoesBoom]

I once got told that "I'd make a pretty girl". I had no idea how to react, I just made a puzzled face.

 

[Yoshemo]

Someone called me "stupid dipped in awesome sauce" x.x

 

[Neonbob]

...FUCK!
I am tired. That's what I'm blaming the typo on.
When he's sober? He's fine. But when he's not? He wants to play quite hazardous games with the knives while he's inebriated and not well coordinated.
That means it's time to leave the room.

Coward.

If that's what keeping my appendages and torso knife-free is seen as, then I suppose so.
*shrugs*
I can live with that.

 

[Lopunny]

oh goody, a chance to show off ^^ might I remind you i'm a STRAIGHT guy

"you have REALLY shiny fingernails!"
"wow! you have so much leg hair!"
"you're suprisingly buff for a guy into reading"
"awww, you'd be cute if you shaved" (from a gay guy)
"you remind me of Seth Groban"
"you remind me of this wierd chemistry teacher i used to have!"

and my favourite, from an ex of mine

"you're like a cute, fluffy, innocent wee bunny rabbit!"

 

[bodyklok]

"I usually kill people for money, but your my friend, I'll kill you for nothing."

No, no ones tried to kill me, thats just something awesome I heard from a pop up somewhere on the interwub.

 

[Novacain4862]

"Hey you finally shaved!"
"You are so dumb but so smart!" I love the compliment/insult lines.

 

[Soxafloppin]

I girl once told me i had nice shoulders....Yup.

 

[theSovietConnection]

I've had a friend tell me she'd like to have sex with me. She also said she was fantasizing about me all during this party. That was a little odd, til I found out the party was for her boyfriend's birthday.

 

[Ham Blitz]

Once, someone I know told me I was "Almost a little good" at something.
Yea, basically bad.

 

[Super Six One]

Being told i had nice manly hands by a girl i quite fancied.....that was quite weird.....made worse by the fact i made a sexual innuendo about what i could do with them after she said it..........she didn't really speak to me after that...

 

[notyouraveragejoe]

I once got "Sensitivity can be hot" after I was told I was sensitive. Also a while back I was called "Cute" frequently but in the "Cute as a bug so I'm not going to date you" way. They're both bizarre compliments to me. But hey I take them as I can get them.

 

[Mackinator]

"Aren't you a handsome devil" said Mackinator to the lady.
"Your clothes are amazing and with those shoes!" said the Lady to Mackinator
Confused much?
Well they both are compliments just weird style.
