The Perfect Compliment
Kind of an odd article, the writer spends the first part of it trying to come up with compliments, which usually fail.<p>Instead of manufacturing a compliment, just pay attention and realize what you think looks nice, what you like, or what you think is cool. Instead of holding back and not saying anything, which I think is what a lot of us do, tell them.<p>If the person has a funny shirt on and it brightens your day, say 'I really like your shirt.'<p>Instead of trying to compliment somebody, just try to appreciate them, and then relax enough to tell them what you appreciate.<p>A compliment you manufacture for the sake of giving a compliment will probably come across as stilted and fake.
