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."
