Almost every British insult is like this.
- I admire your courage in wearing that!
- Your personality is unique.
- I’m impressed by your unconventional approach to social intercourse.
- Your hair is magnificent, does it grow everywhere like that?
- You have such a tremendous, characterful appearance. Ever thought about a career in radio?
- You’re very special.

Best one is to respond to something they say with “Oh that’s quite interesting” in the flatest tone possible, then move the conversation on to a different topic or exit.
Works particularly well on Americans because in American English “quite” is an amplifier modifier but their brain will be confused by the flat (not sarcastic) tone.
