Accepting a Compliment Do's and Don'ts
When someone says - "That is a great shirt."
> You Do
Say, "Thank you."
> You Don't
Say, "I hate it. I am only wearing it because my Aunt Molly bought it for me and she's here for the weekend."
> Why
By saying you hate the shirt, you have insulted the taste of the person who paid you the compliment
