5 years ago on the subway i complimented an old lady wearing a pin-covered jacket and an elf-like hat
She asked me which pin was my favourite & I pointed to one of animal from the muppets. She took it off, handed it to me, and walked away before I could thank her. It felt like I’d been given a good luck charm by some mystical being.
I mentioned the moment 2 years ago in a songwriting class, and turns out she was a regular at the TA’s place of work :’) I think about her very frequently

my mum said that old people feel so ignored and the number one thing you can do as a young person is to give them a compliment. I have actually only done this once but I think it’s so fire when an elderly person puts on a good outfit so I complimented an old lady’s garms recently and her face lit up crazy style

This director-level employee left the company that I work at and when we were saying our goodbyes she said i was so talented and amazing to work with.
That or once these older college girls said i looked like a young mick jagger i think that was a compliment and not a jab
