the art of never accepting a compliment

so you’ve been complimented on something you accomplished yourself. (this does not apply to clothing.)

here are some things you can say:

“oh thanks, but really it was all because of fill-in-the-blank”

“oh thanks, but it could have been so much better if fill-in-the-blank”

“oh thanks, but it didn’t go as well as it could’ve because fill-in-the-blank”

“oh thanks, but yours was so great”

“oh thanks, but”

“oh thanks, but”

FUCK. THAT. SHIT.

reclaim your brilliance

reclaim pride

reclaim cockiness
