What do you all do when somebody asks you for your opinion on something they have made and it's Sh*t

[fairyfly]

Lie?????


Or Laugh???

[Carmenere]

Lie

[bran]

Use words like "unusual" and "unique", say "I would never be able to make something like that". Laughing not a good idea IMHO.

[Aefondkiss]

I would try to think of something positive to say, without lying, too blatantly, like - wow did it take ou a long time, or i really like the colour etc squirm

[Mum2FunkyDude]

"it is not my cup of tea, but I can see you spend a lot of time working on it"

[collision]

if it is your 5 year old ds you say it is the bestest thing you have ever seen and keep it until the recycling people come round!

[zippitippitoes]

if it's a fun fur loo roll cover with googly eyes then stumped but otherwise comment on colour, idea behind it etc like when talking to a child

[Greensleeves]

Both

[Chocolateface]

Lie, but don't be too enthusiatic, they might make one for you.

[saltire]

Lie. I'm good at that

[fairyfly]

It's a leaflet, it's awful...... i said... it suits the market you are aiming at, well done.

Good?

[Piffle]

very tactful FF
for you

[Beetrootccio]

'oh that's wonderful'

[Beetrootccio]

actually the same as for plays - 'amazing piece' interesting work'

[colditz]

You lie.

[fairyfly]

Sorry Fio, i know your pregannt, but really no excuse for such vulgarity. You make my creative soul weep.

[SpookyMadMummy]

I say its an interesting concept/idea

[pointydog]

har! poor op

[fairyfly]

I was just about to say to him.... why don't you send me the files and i will tweak it a bit..... but when he said he had sent it to the printers thought i better not.


Anyway it suits the market he is aiming at, well done.
