A complement sandwich is when you have a negative thing to tell someone, but you sandwich it between two complements.
My boss came up to me today and said "I love your tie! You suck at your job. Great catch at the softball game!"
Thanks for the compliment sandwich, jerk.
When an insult is softened by placing a compliment before and after.
That jerk Jason gave me a real compliment sandwich. He was like “I’m so happy we’re finally hanging out. You must be really comfortable around me to show up with your hair like that. Only a natural beauty could pull of that just-rolled-out-of-bed look.
Post or thread on social media created solely to garner positive attention and validation. Often these "compliment farms" will pose under the guise of vulnerable or marginalized individuals seeking help or support. These "compliment farmers" will pretend to suffer from real issues or dilemmas, such as body dysmorphic disorder, to inspire agreements, head pats (and OF link views) from their audience.

A Trojan Compliment is a nice looking compliment on the surface but whose only aim is to manipulate you.
It's more insidious than a back-handed compliment in the way that you don't really realize it's a critic.
The Trojan Complimenter then waits for you to confess it's not as it looks, or he will "realize" it's not as he thought and pretend to be disappointed and use it to get more concessions from you.
Car Buyer: "wow man, not a single scratch I love how you kept this car so perfect, I like that"
Car Seller: "well, thanks, there's just one small scratch over here.. "
Car Buyer: (sad face) "Oh, I see... It is a bit visible. Well, tell you what, let's 1k off the price and I'll take it anyway.

Joe: "How did you learn those that Trojan Compliment technique man"
Me: "ThePowerMoves.com man, it's wicked"
A compliment directed towards oneself. Can sometimes be perceived as being arrogant, self-centered, or cocky. Used by only the most amazing individuals.
"so I said to my self, self you are truly amazing."
"If I was any more amazing I would be God."
"I wake up in the morning not feeling like P.Diddy."
Person 1: "I am so amazing."
Person 2: "If it wasn't for mono compliments you wouldn't get any."
I noticed that you picked up on that, by the way (@Destiny).
Hym "That's how you know he thinks your he lesser, Destiny... Jordan Peterson doesn't compliment his betters..."
Derstiner "Buh YOU think I'm your lesser!"
Hym "Hahahahaha... It... It isn't a thought."
A lie you tell someone to make them feel better
People like compliments, even though they mean nothing.
