Back-handed compliments

[Don1]

I'm after some wonderful insults please PH.

My two current favorites are: "He's done well for himself.... considering", and "I fear he's doing his best already..."

Fire away!

A sheep in sheep's clothing.

A modest man with much to be modest about.

I like to use "I don't care what anyone else says about you, I think you're alright."

[soad]

You're a riot when you've had a bit to drink!

I had similar said to me at work a while back, fairly out of the blue a senior colleague says "we were talking, the CIO really rates you".

I though uh-oh, this sounds exactly like a cabinet minister being given full support from the Prime Minister, so I polished up the CV and started looking for a new job.

I wasn't wrong, and a month later I was given my notice!

I was once told that a lot of prostitutes are just normal looking and even I could get work as one.

I would follow this officer into battle at any time......purely out of curiosity.

I'm sorry but that did make me laugh, of course I have no idea what you look like (although maybe I do, I use the Sele Co-Op!)

50 million sperm and you were the quickest!
A man of hidden shallows.
There's less to him than meets the eye.
He's head and shoulders below everyone else.

Apocryphal employment references: "Mr X left us in the same manner as he joined us, fired with enthusiasm."

[Moaningroadie]

I was sticking up for you the other day - Bill said you weren't fit to f*ck pigs but I said you were.

Good thread OP It's nice to see you've started making an effort.

Oh, my profile says nothing about Sele so am intrigued how you know.
Yes, I do use that same shop sometimes, it is very handy.
I just look normal, scrub up ok but not sure I could ever be taken for a prostitute. It was my best friend that said that and she is still my best friend.
