Septentrionalist's definitions

complimate

a portmanteau of compliment and hate: to offer a compliment that is actually hateful

"That's the smartest thing you've ever said in your life!" "Don't you complimate (on) me!"

While acknowledging the other's intelligence, the complimater suggests that it is rarely, if ever, expressed. Hence, the speaker is complimenting and hating simultaneously.
