people say this to me often. i don't think it is meant to be kind. on the one hand, i look like hammered poo poo almost all the time, and don't care what i look like except if i am attending some event at which i do not want to offend the hosts by looking like poo poo, out of politeness as a guest. church services, weddings, funerals, gala whatever, i will properly groom myself and bust out my "sunday best" formal-wear, which i keep in its own closet so that it doesnt smell like stale beer and cig butts. and i keep it meticulously clean. and yes i bathe every day because being dirty and greasy feels like poo poo, but bear with me......i haven't shaved in a couple months, haven't had a hair cut in two years, when i am working on the farm i wear whatever i need to wear, and when im done i put on a bathrobe. BUT if i am going somewhere decent, i will coif myself and wear my gold tie (full windsor motherbitches) black coat and long coat if it is cold i suppose my point is, im not married, have no children, or anyone around me who i feel a need to show a good side to, ah gently caress im going smoke wait,

I take it as a compliment but it basically means, "I was not aware you could look like you weren't homeless".

It’s a backhanded compliment that assholes use. I wouldn’t say it to anyone I didn’t know well (as a joke).

It's that special kind of rude politeness. Like "oh hey, you smell nice today"

"You clean up well" sounds like "wow, what a polishable turd you are" to me, tbh

It's not a compliment. "You filth up well" is a compliment.

now if you piss into a pyrex measuring cup and you piss two cups worth to toss out the window, and then you are slow dancing at a wedding with some member of the bridal party, and mention that uncircumsied penises look like those worms that live in your eyelash pores and come out at night while you sleep to eat your dead skin, would that come across as dry humour or crass and vulgar

One of the very first times I ever went out on a date (this was the late 1970s), the young woman I went out with had obviously worked very hard to make sure her makeup was perfect. She looked amazing. I attempted to tell her that I appreciated her efforts and how great she looked as a result. How did the compliment come out? "With all that makeup on your face, it looks okay!"

When I was four years old I remember riding on my great aunts back around the living room, her on all fours. We were having a laugh, really. My mother walked in and saw what was happening, I threw my arms up in the air and said "I was on a donkey!" Fast forward some 30 years and we were at a memorial service for my dead uncle. I hadn't seen her in over a decade. Both of us were outside having a smoke and I said "Oh hey, Margaret! I couldn't ride you like a donkey now." The words left my mouth before I could process them. Luckily, she seen the funny side.

I'm like 10 years younger than you so it was the late 1980's for me, and I hung out with and dated people who dressed like The Cure, which means *constant* hairspray and makeup fixes, like every 5 or 10 minutes. Walk in to the dance club, go right to the back mirror and spend 10 minutes fixing hair and face, despite spending an hour doing this before leaving. This went as much for guys as it did for girls.  edit - this looks pretty accurate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3ZVZVMIG7g although most of the dudes in the above vid look like they are trying to look hot and hook up which i guess is what we all were doing back then Bula Vinaka fucked around with this message at 00:15 on Jan 22, 2022 |

It's a sort of backhanded compliment that you are handsome but you do need to start taking care of yourself
