Courtesy praise


this is handy when you strongly insult someone or make a biting comment about a mutual friend who’s not in the conversation.

you might say something surprisingly harsh about them that you have to balance out to seem less aggressive and b-tchy.. insert the courtesy praise to even out the insult. this scenario normally happens when a group of two or more girls are gossipping about a third party but don’t want to come off too strong so as to cover their -ss in case someone else is close with the person.
susan talking to posse: did you see laura last night?
erin: yea, she looked like a beached whale- i wonder what she ate at college- small children?
(group looks a bit shocked)
erin: i mean i loved her hair cut and she’s really nice i just feel bad cause she looked so good in high school..
susan: yea, you’re so right but that was a courtesy praise
posse nods in agreement
