Comment on Oh!
D_C@sh.itjust.works 12 hours agoI saw it as a cheesy compliment with an added layer of cheesy humour.
And most people like compliments and cheesy jokes.
But then again I also saw the top comment as an Andrew Tate-ish, “I’d rather be an incel than attempt to compliment a woman”, so what do I know…

A test to see which is the incel comment: which one most readily accepts a “m’lady?”

Its not possible to genuinely compliment a stranger without putting in a lot of effort which is creepy. Compliments should be for your friends and family, not thrown away freely in the desperate hope of making a connection. Should this opinion puts me in the company of actual human slave owner Andrew Tate??

Once upon a midnight dreary, m’lady…
Seems legit…

Abe was a champion wrestler and had a great job as a railroad lawyer.
What he wanted, he got.

Tryong to think of a British equivalent of ‘M’Lady’ because that phraee is unheard of here
