when i cooked for thanksgiving my dad told my food tasted just like his mother's cooking. i never met her she died when he was only twelve. i almost cried

The one I get the most is usually- Wow- you turned out pretty normal for being an only child with shitty parents...

One of my friends said I was the biggest influence on his life.


When I met him, he was a straight edge, homophobic, frat boy. When I got done with him, he was practically my bitch-a real prodigy child.


Oh, also, when my friend Donny told me that I am good at making folks happy.

thats really beautiful

Imago said:

He's no longer straight-edge? You led him into a world of drug addiction?

CinisterCee said:

pretty much

My 3 year old daughter walks around saying to me:
"you are the best mommy!", "hi, best mommy", "I love you best mommy!"
Melts my heart!

Awww...

I can't wait to hear something like that.

LittleSmedley said:

Although I would disagree, my mother said that I play guitar like Jimi.

I'm very flattered by this because, let's face it, there will never be another guitarist like Hendrix.

JustErin said:

yeah, and I didn't even coach her!

JustErin said:

You can't wait for your kid to say PaisleyPark5083 is the best mommy?

One of my favorite compliments was one that I overheard someone say.

I was walking by the office of my college jazz choir director, and heard him talking to a colleague on the phone. I wasn't trying to eavesdrop, but I heard him say, "You've met Rani? Oh yes, she's a real sweetheart."

People have told me that to my face, but it meant a lot more to hear someone say it to a colleague, without knowing I was there.

mine was:

You have a huge cook head

I didn't know you could cook too

Like JD says...this and that.

And like Anx says, I have the crappest memory too. And I'm not very good at taking compliments - so even if it is was a humdinger of a comment, I still wouldn't remember it.

I don't believe compliments, but I believe insults

I just found something for my co-worker in a about 3 minutes that she had been searching for about 3 weeks. She said she does not know what this office is going to do without me and I am THE WOMAN!!!

JustErin said:

I'm always complimenting you on your great hair. I can't believe you didn't pick one of mine. Actually, I can believe it, I just wanted to talk about your hair.

"Your kisses always make me feel like _I_ should go home and practice"

Fauxie said:

You're so sweet.

'You deserve better. A man who loves you. I do NOT love you.'

SureThing said:

Dude, I haven't even had a guy respect me enough to say that to me.

JustErin said:

Trust me. This dude doesn't respect me either.

He was jsut trying to shut me up.

"you're so sweet"






And all the terrifying stuff Imago says to me in orgnotes would probably be very sweet if it was in any way appropriate or actually wanted.
