      But like, it seems like she’s a complete stranger to them, how are they supposed to compliment her on anything other than her looks? This comic is trying to make some sort of point but it’s not making that point.

        “You seem to be very determined and willing to get out of your comfort zone while asking for what you want.”

          That might work. You should at least phrase it more positively: “You’re very brave.” Your version is more of a neutral observation IMHO.

        You handle that gun like a professional. I like your red shirt. I like your brown pants. I like your white shoes. You seem like a very take charge person.

        That was after putting 5 seconds of thought into it.

          3/5 of those were about her looks. The other two, yeah, I thought of that option just before posting but figured I’d let someone else say it. Just hoped they’d be less condescending about it.

            Disagree. “Your looks” are features of you whereas your clothing and accessories are choices you make.

              Okay, it’s a bit of a grey zone. Your clothes are definitely part of your look but they are also choices.

                This is some contextual pedantry but: “your look” and “your looks” are not the same thing, which is why i make the distinction.

            is that about looks or taste?

              Do you determine color by looking or by tasting? (I’m being intentionally obstinate to a degree)

                  Gonna have to disagree. Light blue is best.

Posts Malone: "if you ever meet someone who calls Gatorade flavors the actual name of the flavor instead of just the color they are 100% a cop" sexpooping: "Ya but you gotta specify... frost glacier freeze or cool blue you can't just say "blue" bc there's more than one blue...." chief0keefe: "blue and light blue nice try officer"

            Less condescending? On the internet? Sir, that ship has unfortunately sailed years ago.

        You have some serious balls to come in here and make demands like that.

        Not sure if that’s actually better, but it’s not about looks.

        It was drawn by someone who only gets compliments on their looks. It checks out.
