Help[Opinions] Re: gushy compliments
in reply to a message by beethoven
Yeah, I've given plenty of compliments on names I don't like, mostly to counteract the expression of disgust I'm sure is spread across my features. There's no doubt a percentage of the people I mentioned weren't sincere, but most of them didn't ping my fake-dar. I felt like there were a lot of genuine "ooh, I like that!" reactions.

You know a surefire way to tell if someone is faking it? When they use the word "interesting" to describe a name. I've done it, myself.

Me too! Or "That's really unusual!" accompanied by a smile that shows all your teeth.
