It’s amazing how well a small, well meaning compliment can make your day, your week…
I was playing hockey last month and one player on the other team complimented something I did on the ice. Simple thing. “Nice puck protection!” after I made a play. Fuck, I’m so used to being chirped out there that it caught me completely off guard. I told my gf that night “The karma version of my brain is like: I should compliment players on the other team more. They probably feel great when that happens too 😀”
Hell, I remember when one of my classmates in gym class complimented my basketball shot, and that was back in the '90s. (If you’re out there, Leon, thanks.)
I really don’t think so. This cashier looked bored af and I’m pretty sure Spirit Halloween knows their shit sells itself. Besides, they were complimenting me on my decidedly anti-capitalist “pride brick” hoodie, which is a brick with a rainbow on top.
The last time I was in a Spirit Halloween store, the cashier told me they liked my hoodie.
I want to emphasize that I still occasionally think about this thing that happened in October.
