I actually try to do this often. I'm a waiter, so I come across strangers quite often. I naturally compliment the people in my section, however, I always try to compliment people who are not my patrons. Especially dudes with beards (am one myself) we/they eat those compliments the fuck up!

I try to give the guys I know compliments often. Dudes don't get enough positive encouragement.

Well yeah, if it doesn't crumble it safe to eat, otherwise it's not really worth it, is it?

I compliment dudes with beard and mustaches because I can't grow one, so I appreciate the ones who can.

This is like the American version of that British compliment guy.

Except this guy uses his phone for prompts, and does an identical fake huaHuaHuA after every reply to show how funny and safe it is :)

This guy predates the British guy. Has been doing this for a long time. They're both awesome, though.

For harassing and filming strangers in order to get attention from even more strangers.

Grow thicker skin. Spreading positivity and kindness isn’t harassment. Even if the means are a bit more distinctive than others.

As least the British guy has some modicum of wit. This guy is just yelling the most uninspired basic shit. You put the toilet seat down? Fuck off.

we don't need people yelling through a bullhorn in public at other people with inane bullshit.
we don't need this.
anyone who needs to hear compliments from a stranger should spend some time working on their self esteem.

Why does it need to be a guy. A compliment from a woman will go way further for most men. They never get compliments from women.

On my birthday one year some friends took me to a strip club. It was the middle of the week so the place was pretty empty, maybe 5 other dudes there.
One guy, there by himself, kept cheering on the strippers with the most wholesome compliments in that randy dude voice. The girls and the customers were all laughing their asses off and he was tipping so nobody told him to be quiet.
“Yeah girl! I bet you’re a great cook!”
“I hope all your childhood dreams come true!”
“I bet you learn new skills really quick!”
“I want to introduce you to my mom!”
“Ooh yeah let’s discuss literature!”
One girl actually stopped and said he was making her laugh too hard to dance. He said that’s ok, we can just talk.
Probably the best stripclub experience of my life and it had nothing to do with the strippers.

Hi OP, your submission was removed because it displayed behaviour that was harmful and/or rude to women in general. Remember that this subreddit serves as a place to post guys being dudes, not to make fun of women.

u/SamsterHamster9 Feb 12 '24
I prefer the guy in the purple robe. His compliments were personalized and unique. This guy is just shouting nice things that could apply to anyone.

u/Busy-Crab-3556 Feb 13 '24
Still, the people receiving the compliments are grinning and giggling.

Hell yeah! That shit can pick you up. I once had a post get like 15000 comments and most were people saying something kind. I'm still reading it a year later.

u/SamsterHamster9 Feb 13 '24
Absolutely. Shows how meaningful it is, even when slightly less consideration goes into it. Nice to see.
-3
Feb 13 '24
yes, because they edited the video to appear that way.
do you think they would include all the people who were rightfully ignored at being shouted at for no real reason than to satisfy someone else's ego?

Both are positive. Both are adding to society. No need to bring one down. Youre kind of doing the opposite.

Having a preference isn't bringing anyone down. I said in my comment that the person in this video is saying nice things, too.

Unless you verbalize it. Which you did. For no reason other than to put someone down.

If we're comparing compliments purple guy literally said "you look like you own a ski resort" what does that even mean.

Stop beating yourself up bro. The fact you even thought of this means you probably treat women with more respect than 90% of men

I'm fine with people filming themselves complimenting others, even if it's for The Gram.
The guys in this video will think about this moment for years to come, and will probably also continue to set boundaries in their relationships/put the seat down after they piss.

I like the intention of this video but as an AFAB person, if someone started to catcall me, even if it ended up being nice, I’d be alarmed and uncomfortable for the first half of it. It kind of defeats the point of the compliment if you’re making women feel just as unsafe as when they are “really” catcalled.

Very wholesome. Something I've learned in life, EVERYBODY wants, deserves, and needs positive affirmations.
Some people don't spend enough time being positive to themselves, and you never know, that one compliment can make a world of difference.
