John: Ava, you’re so pretty!
Ava: Okay
John: Do you not like it when I say that?
Ava: No, it’s just that I get told I’m pretty all the time so the compliment doesn’t feel as special.
John: Oh I see, being called pretty has lost it’s effect due to compliment inflation.

Get the mono compliment mug.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.
