I’m not sure if this is a compliment…

by Lori Dwyer on June 2, 2010 · 21 comments

…or not.

So I’ll leave it up to you, my loyal henchpeoples, to decide for me.

According to The Man, if I were a train (eh?), I would look like this.

I’m sorry, did someone say “My, Lori, what big eyes you have?”

Win, or Epic Fail?

Do I take this as a compliment of the highest order?

Or is The Man taking the p*ss?

Aww, it's a compliment! I'm sure if I was a car, I would be happy to be anything – Mater, the King, McQueen – because I know they are of upmost importance to my little maniac!

I wouldn't think it's a compliment personally but men are weird and you can bet he thinks he's paying a compliment of the highest order.

I'm just shaking my head over here. I just…I don't know. Unless….maybe he thinks that's the Hot Tamale Train???

I doubt you have such "BIG EYES" – but I think it's cute anyway so I'm sure it was a compliment! :o)

I think it's pretty obvious that he's used this whole thing as a diversionary tactic to distract you from something else. He's probably up to something.

Nelle knows her Thomas and Friends, I'm impressed ;) And hey, it could have been Mavis or Cranky or someone like that. It could be worse.

How the comparision came about? Erm.. not sure. he just called out from the lounge room "If you were a train, you'd look like this".

Odd.

It could've been worse you could be Annie or Clarabell!

I'm with Teni though, big eyes & a smile, she's cute.

I'm with Nelle – seeing as he's picked one of the only girl trains, i'd say its a compliment.
I mean, he could have said you were Gordon…

Well, since that's Lady, perhaps he meant that you're ladylike…or that you're good at teamwork in the mountains. Or that you're classy, since she has gold trim…or showy…which is less of a compliment I guess. Those are my rambles anyway.

it depends, A) was he intoxicated? or B) had bumped is head? and was there any sarcasm involved?

I'm going to break from the crowd and go with compliment (The Man, you owe me).

Methinks that The Man's sexy time privileges should be revoked. Hehe.

That is a tough call.

I think that train's kinda cute… does that make me weird?
I'd take it as a compliment, I suppose.

Wait, what?
How did THAT comparison come about?
I would say fail, but if he is anything like my husband, he probably meant something incredibly sweet and wonderful and it just came out stupidly. So maybe good?!?
