    Ummm.

    wtf. I don't know how I would react if a woman ever told me this. It's stupid enough if a dude says it - but hearing it from a woman would just seem forced and really, really awkward.

    Who writes this **** anyhow? People get paid for this crap?

    I've been recently dubbed a super-duper nice guy.

    That didn't last.

    I concur. I'm not sure about laughter, since I'm not forever trying to make people laugh, but I suppose if my wife never laughed at my jokes, that'd get oppressive.

    As for the others, "your arms are bigger" doesn't help much. That's like going from -10 to -9, maybe an improvement, but nothing to feel too cocky about. "The kids adore you," I know that already. It makes me feel good, but my daughter already lets me know. "You the man" -- I can't imagine my wife saying that; she has trouble bringing herself to use a contraction, so forget about grammatically neanderthallic idioms. "Cute feet" does nothing. "What do you think" seems more like a chore than a compliment, especially those wide-open ones where you don't even have a subject to think about.

    But, good list anyway. Even the ones that don't move me sound like they'd be effective somewhere. Except the feet; what's up with that?

    The greatest compliment a woman can give a man is to let him shoot one down her mouth and then say nothing. :D

    Well, I don't think it's as bad as telling a woman, "You're the ****!" repeatedly.
