"i think you have the sharpest wit out of anyone i know"

this came from a friend of mine who has a LOT of friends, so the wit must be pretty SHARP.

"You are passionately religious when you are drunk" (paraphrased)

That spot's clearing up nicely

"Not everyone could get away with those glasses"

Could be a compliment, could be optician-speak for "Jesus! What an uggo! Quickly, give her really striking glasses to take the focus off her face!"

"I thought you always talked complete gibberish, until one day I understood one thing you said, and realised it was profound. And after that, I understood everything you said. I think I'm going insane!"

"I could tell when you'd arrived because the music got better"

That made me feel warm inside.

I got an email through one of the dating sites my account has been sitting on, untouched, for ages, reading something like "Did it hurt when you fell from Heaven?" My first reaction was to assume it was a sarcastic insult, suggesting I was arrogant, then it occurred to me it was probably in fact my first receipt of one of the classic cheesy chat-up lines.

"you did a REALLY good job cleaning the refrigerator."

"I like your white trousers!"

(that was this morning - I am not wearing white trousers, they're cream, okay?)

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 23 December 2004 13:13 (twenty years ago)

Not everyone can pull off white trousers.

If she's cute, I don't usually put up much of a struggle.

― Michael White (Hereward), Thursday, 23 December 2004 20:52 (twenty years ago)

Thank you! We're here all week.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Thursday, 23 December 2004 22:24 (twenty years ago)

Oh man. I shouldn't be laughing at such a groaner, but I am. Applause to Mr. White and additional applause to the Accented Monkey One, who punched that baby up a bit.

My compliment came while I was overhearing a phone conversation my mother was having with one of my aunts. Mom told this aunt of mine that she didn't know what she would do without me. (The exact quote was, "I don't know what I would do without mija." Mija = my daughter, for the Spanish-challenged.) Um, wow?

"Well hey, Pimpin'! I didn't recognize you!"

That was actually from Sunday.

"I could tell when you'd arrived because the music got better"

that rules!

two years pass...

so i'm walking down fifth avenue in Park Slope singing Janet's "Control", when this lady edges up to me. I thought she was gonna be all like, ooh i love that album - my boyfriend thought she was gonna be the crazy talking to herself and you woman. turns out neither! she goes "you should get a recording contract - you have a beautiful voice!"

i was like "thank you that is so sweet! i was just trying to imitate janet"

=) made my day

i got great feedback on a "critical summary" presentation i gave today. ISN'T IT IRONIC how sometimes the assignments you give the least thought/effort turn out to be the most well-received (and vice versa)?
