What’s the most random compliment you’ve ever received?

[K8Davidson]

I was having blood test yesterday and the phlebotomist said I had excellent veins. I’m not sure what makes veins excellent, but I was glad to hear it!

What’s the most random compliment you’ve ever received?

Did you have a high alcohol reading and traces of cannabis in your blood 🤣🤣

I got told that once she showed me straight to the toilet after

Hmm, I met a friend of a friend who praised another woman who was with us for her beauty. She raved about her, then turned to me and said, "Never mind Lady Macbeth, at least you have character. "
🤨

My best mate told me I would make a great humanist celebrant because I am so expressive with my hands.

I teach clinically in a medical imaging setting...I complimented someone on their text book common bile duct today 🤦‍♀️I really need to get out more🤣

Bet you made their day 🤣

I have two.

One was that I have a "lovely" cervix according to the lady doing my smear.

Another was that I have a "nice high fold", this was from the (STONKINGLY good looking) surgeon drawing lines all over my boobs before my surgery. The fold is the bit where your boob joins your chest apparently.

I was told very loudly and appreciatively that I am a "strong woman! Strong like an ox!"

“You don’t sound like you’re from Portsmouth”

DD, then 3 " Mummy you've got good sturdy legs, mine are so thin".

An ex once called me " a great lump of sexiness" it makes me feel like a tub of lard lol

I was told that my skin fits me really well. By a taxidermist!!

A girl I knew when I was 14 but didn't see again until I was 24 said "don't take this the wrong way but I thought you would be really fat!" Later on we were ascending some stairs (we were on another friends hen do) and she told me i had the series legs she had ever seen..quite a leap from her assuming I would be really fat!

Just remembered another one.

My shoe broke when me and a (male) mate were on our way to a taxi rank after a night out. He gave me a piggy back and about 10 metres on he said "You dont look this fat!" err.....thanks?!

That I have a pretty cervix after I'd just had my routine smear (and also previously having a biopsy done on it) 🤣

That my mouth is a very pretty shape when I am singing. Apparently most people's are ugly - who knew?!

"You have very classical toes."

Said to me in a park in Paris by a passing Frenchman with a small dog who had just sniffed them.

The dog. Not the man.

Ooh - when I was in labour with my eldest I was firstly told I have ‘excellent muscle tone’ when I accidentally popped the speculum out of me when the midwife turned around to get something and then after I gave birth another midwife told me I had ‘lovely nipples for breastfeeding’ 🤣

My surgeon put excessive droopage on my notes pre boob job

Surgeon to nurse practitioner: "come and look at this Louise: you often get this with really short-sighted people. See how clearly you can see the retina without using the lens"

no it's not really a compliment, but I felt absurdly pleased by it!

Once had a random 5-yo say to me "I think you're absolutely beautiful"

A midwife told me I had “the pelvic floor of an ox” and “hips like a farmer’s daughter”. I’m not sure whether either was an insult or compliment, but I was impressed with her line in agricultural similes.

I'm good at " voiding" by a urologist 😂

I have very straight ear canals, which apparently made examining them very easy.

Also the day after I gave birth the midwife complimented me on my uterus having gone straight back to size. I’d never considered it wouldn’t but she said it was unusually fast.

Someone once told me that they liked the way I pronounced a word!

I too have a beautiful cervix.

At least I did. That was some years ago, before a polypectomy and various investigations.

Mind you, this thread is making me feel a bit less special. <sniff>
