Compliment
(noun)
Words of praise or admiration that might be true but could also be laced with a heavy dose of sarcasm, especially if your close ones are the source of the said “compliment”.
This post was written in response to today’s One-Liner Wednesday challenge from Linda G. Hill. The challenge, as the name implies is to come up with a one-liner. Please click on the link to know more about the rules of this challenge and/or to read the other entries by my fellow bloggers.
You know what I am talking about, right?
Do you have any similar stories (good and bad!) to share? The comments section is all yours.
Wherever you are, I hope you are safe and well. Take care.

Yes. We shouldn’t be gullible. The world and its people are not always kind.

Main reason why it’s so awkward to take in a compliment, you don’t know if it’s true or not. 😅
