French compliment

A compliment said reluctantly through gritted teeth. Used by people when they wish to appear as if they genuinely care but secretly have zero interest in the subject. A favoured technique of narcissists to improve their image or hide their short comings at the expense of others.

French compliments can be distinguished from a standard back handed compliment by the use of a false sense of suprise (see example below)

A French compliment often ends in the person giving the compliment obtaining something they did not earn or merit.

The work looks great, I am actually fairly impressed given they have only been in for a couple of months- french compliment

A Gentleman's Compliment

When, during lovemaking, the gentleman is so aroused by the lady he's currently in that, instead of losing tumescence after orgasm, he maintains wood and carries on for a second innings.

Gill was flabbergasted and held on tight as Jack resumed his pounding after a very loud finish." A Gentleman's Compliment".

Racist Compliment

A nice thing to say to someone, but at the same time, slightly racist. Usually used for black people because, let's face it, they're pretty athletic.

"Man Daryl is so fast, and good at jumping, and basketball."
"Probably because he's black."
Racist Compliment^

"God Ho-Chin-Maow-Lee-Ciao got 100% on the math test! I think he's Asian"
"Good thing I copied off of him."
Racist Compliment^

Backhanded compliment

When a new acquaintance ends an interaction with a cleverly delivered phrase, leaving you confused about their feelings towards you. Many times a shrewd tactic used by women to get men emotionally invested and intrigued in them.

Off duty paramedic: Well it was nice to meet you Claudia, but I must go now.

Claudia the nurse: Sir, I sincerely hope i never have to deal with you professionally. *Smiles*

Off duty paramedic: Well that's not very... oh I get it! Haha. Take care! *walking away and scratching head*

Claudia the nurse (under her breath): Got um :)

Later on a call

Paramedic: Man, I can't stop thinking about that nurse Claudia from St. Thomas. She schooled me with that backhanded compliment. I'm so confused. Is she attracted to me? That is the question.

Partner: Huh!?! What the hell are you talking about??! This man is in cardiac arrest!! Do something! This is my first shift and you're the senior paramedic here! OMG What do i do?! What do i do!?????

*beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep*

Paramedic: I think i'm gonna call her tonight. Yeah. Definitely gonna call her. Those lips... hmmm. Hey rookie, fill out the incident report will you? *sings* K K K Claudiaaaaaa.. .K K K Claudia... Mmm mmmmm

Partner:.........(shedding tears)
