"Whoa, you have steampunk goggles? That's pretty cool."
Some guy at FYE said that to me when I was buying an Angry Birds plush.

One time someone told me that i was the brightest fuck in the sky.
I didnt really get it. At all.

I'm like, the worst player on the football team, but I was totally raging one day during practice and I was doing well. I was playing defensive end, and I nearly got to the quarterback on multiple plays. The quarterback said, to his left tackle, the one blocking me, "I'm getting pressure, from him, of all people!". Ye, he was pretty mad at his left tackle.

Not really a compliment, but I felt pretty good about it.

Some random chick in the street said "Nice Moustache."

Any compliment scores very highly in my book, due to my horridly low self-esteem. One of the best, though, was on the massive party after graduation, which got written in my student cap. "Shine with pride over a loyal friend!". I've always been rather awkward in social situations, so getting told that i had a loyal friend meant a whole lot to me. I already did consider everyone in that class as friends, but getting it told directly made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

"Others have been trying to pull off sometihng like that for months.. now you've spent 5 minutes on it, and it just.... Works!"

- Quote from a coworker

Some hot chick walked up to me in a club and was like "hi, I'm a modelling agent, heres my card, call me if your interested."
and i was confused and felt pretty cool.

and a 4th year at college walked up to me while i was eating lunch with some friends from my class was also like "hey bro, ever done modelling?" i was like "no"
and he was like "I think you should, heres my card"
and i was confused and my friends all thought i was cool.

then I was at dinner with friends and the editor of the SA branch of HEAT magazine was there and asked me if i had ever done modeling, and i said no, and she said i was stupid.
and i felt sheepish, but still cool.

your an asshole.

I take mean things as if they were complimenting me because i know i am better than them :P.

"Oooh, it's huge!" - said some random chick after I had shown her my stamp collection.

you've got what a perfect person needs
