Weirdest compliments you've ever received?

[FightThePower]

I was practicing for a presentation to give to the lecture hall as part of a module I took in December, and I was gesturing to an imaginary board when one of my group members told me I would make a good weatherman. I guess that's a good thing...right?

I've also been told be two random girls standing behind me that my hair smells really nice, and apparently more people need to 'speak like me'. Not quite sure what that means, but what weird (but nice) things have people said to you?

 

[JoJo Bizzaro 7]

Someone once told me I look like Antonio Banderas. Weird.

 

[Insanum]

People have said im posh. People that know me know im not posh...just a snob.

 

[Threx]

You don't look like a homo to me. Courtesy of my now girlfriend.

 

[Shjade]

"You remind me of my grandfather."

I wasn't quite twenty at the time.

There was an awkward pause.

 

[FightThePower]

"You look like a really hot girl who worked in advertising for too long"

Said to me by a very drunk person I was talking to while waiting on the street.

I'm a man, incidentally.

Haha, that's priceless.

 

[lonelydays17]

"You look good with all that weight."
I didn't know whether say thanks or to walk away.

 

[fix-the-spade]

I was once told I had lovely breasts.

I am a man, a skinny man at that.

 

[Shockolate]

"You have really cute butt."

From a multiple female acquaintances of mine.

Being a gentleman, I never really have an answer for it. I think they might just be fucking with me.

 

[Lisolet]

"Your skin is like porcelin, I can see your veins!" It was daytime and the sun was out, so the complimenter wasn't a vampire.

 

[Joshroom]

"Mate, you look well old with that beard; well bet you could get into bars and the like!"

I was 20 at the time. He did mean it as a compliment, I think.

I have pretty eyelashes.

...and I'm a dude. I wasn't sure how to take that.

 

[Ironboot]

Someone once said "You're the baddest good person I know" in Guild Wars... I'm not sure if that's good or bad.

I have pretty eyelashes.

...and I'm a dude. I wasn't sure how to take that.

I get that too!

 

[Soxafloppin]

Someone told me that i had a nice back one time.

A back? Like how can a back be attractive?

You'd be surprised how many years a beard adds to you. I'm pretty short for my age so I don't look 19 at all, but if I grow a beard I don't get ID'd if I buy alcohol. Shaved it off, bought some more the next day, got ID'd, go figure.

Of course, only needing to be 18 rather than 21 to buy alcohol in this country helps.

 

[Spaghetti]

"Your chest is so warm!"
I got that for handing someone a memory stick that I kept in my breast pocket and it happened to be warm. So apparently I bring the phrase "Warm-Hearted" to a whole knew level.

There was also this conversation with a stranger:
Stranger: "You'd make an excellent super-villian"
Me: "Um, ok. Why?"
Stranger: "Because your British. Everyone knows the best villians are British!"
So I've now started modelling myself on Grand Moff Tarkin, bunny slippers and all.

 

[Robert632]

Apparently,I have nice eyebrows. I didn't even know eyebrows mattered until that point.
