Wording a criticism as a semi-compliment is typically British. Not realizing this is typically American.

- flir 2y agoAm Brit, that stood out to me too. I mean, I've made the same comment, so I know what was intended. (See my next comment for another example of this "skill").
- Spivak 2y agoI mean I guess this could have been the case but this guy in particular was originally from South Africa and living in the UK at the time and is in now in the process of immigrating to the US after marrying one of our other guild members. So unless it's also a British thing to commit to an underhanded compliment for years and continue snarfing down American food every time he visits I'm gonna assume he continues to be genuine.
- flir 2y agoSo American ;)
