Constructive Compliment

1: A suggestion that is delivered with encouragement.

2: An idea that does not truly exist and is an excuse for trying to politely state that someone could easily do better, or that they are awful at whatever the constructive compliment is aimed at.

3: Something one makes up in Home Economics because your group is crap at their cooking assignment and only you seem to know it, saying that they can do much better in a politer way than saying "Dude, are you really this bad? You can fucking do better."

See constructive criticism and compliment.

Person No. 2: "Constructive compliment

Trojan Compliment

A Trojan Compliment is a nice looking compliment on the surface but whose only aim is to manipulate you.

It's more insidious than a back-handed compliment in the way that you don't really realize it's a critic.

The Trojan Complimenter then waits for you to confess it's not as it looks, or he will "realize" it's not as he thought and pretend to be disappointed and use it to get more concessions from you.
Car Buyer: "wow man, not a single scratch I love how you kept this car so perfect, I like that"
Car Seller: "well, thanks, there's just one small scratch over here.. "

Car Buyer: (sad face) "Oh, I see... It is a bit visible. Well, tell you what, let's 1k off the price and I'll take it anyway.

Joe: "How did you learn those that Trojan Compliment technique man"

Me: "ThePowerMoves.com man, it's wicked"
