Construction Mess

It's a mess that's blamed on the construction workers but someone else may have had something to do with it...
Person 1: why is there a big pile of shit on the carpet?

Person 2: Oh it's just a Construction Mess. The workers did it (and definitely not me haha).

Constructive Compliment

1: A suggestion that often is presented in an encouraging or complimenting way.
2: An idea that truly does not exist or have any meaning; a joke that people may use to describe an overly polite suggestion.
3: Something that one creates in Home Economics because one's group is doing terribly on the cooking assignment, namely one person, which you first send the cold, hard truth, then abandon it and attempt to compliment and suggest ideas at the same time.
1:
Person 1: "Hey, person. What you're doing right now is great, but I think if you did this that would make it better!"
Person 2: "Constructive criticism."
2:
Person 1: "Okay, so you're doing great and I love what you're doing right now, it looks really great and all, but maybe if you did this it would make it even better!"
Person 2: "Did you hear that? They just sugarcoated that so much."
Person 3: "Haha yeah, constructive complimenting am I right?"
Person 2: "Hahaha yep."

constructive pessimism

Believing one's own work is not good enough or that something in their work is missing, causing them to revise or even restart their work.
A writer had completed five pages of a script before feeling that their story just wasn't good enough, and so constructive pessimism struck them as they searched for that missing oomph.

The act of diminishing or destroying the original meaning or purpose of an entity (be it individual, location, building, group, etc) during the act of building it up (building up the image, adding to the building, adding more rules to a group, etc). Not to be confused with hype, which is the building up of expectation.
Guy 1: “Man the club used to be so fun, now its just a drag, what happened?”
Guy 2: “Destruction through construction, id say it happened when that one guy came in and added all those rules.”
