  • How to take a compliment - Simplified ( in case this is too extreme )

    You will need.

    Feelings.

    A body.

    1. After someone gives a compliment say thank you

    2. you have learned to take a compliment. you are no longer a dipshit.

    Did you know compliments are that easy!

  • This video is actually useful for some ppl ( not me) but i think the title should be "how to be humble when compilimented

  • is: your lashes are really long a compliment?

  • @xxmakeuploverxxisa im not sure, cause today i told my friend her nose looked smaller then she was embarrassed/... O_O

  • @xxmakeuploverxxisa yeap :)

    

  • 0:34 to 0:40 omg, i laughed the whole day XD

  • Easy, say: "yeah, I know I really AM that hot, I'm so sorry you aren't, then we could be friends".. or maybe that's a bit too arrogant?

  • me: -runs to a day care- 'ACCEPT COMPLiMENTS KiDS.. ACCEPT THEM OR ELSE !"

  • Ah, I left my self confidence at home..

  • Step 1 basically summed up the video.

  • 0:31 DAT ASS

  • they keep touching each other.lol

  • You will need: a compliment

    Step 1: Take it.

    Step 2: Pull pants down.

    Did you know: White people are not black.

  • Step one: Say thank you..

  • the "did you know" fact has nothing to do with the video!

  • thumbs up fpr 1:15!

  • all i have is humility, what do i do then?

  • Next week on Howcast: How to blink!!

  • Some people could really use this video. I know plenty of annoying people who, when complimented, deny it. So annoying.

  • I actually know a person or two how could benefit from this video..refusing to accept a compliment shows is false humility and shows that you are insecure. -_-

  • are they homosexual females?

  • W...T...F...

  • looked kinda intimate when the two were "complimenting" each others' shirt or top

  • they should've stopped after stepp one

  • said to gf:

    you look beutiful.

    gf: oh really i shaved my armpits

  • "You look really pretty."

    "I know, I'm perfect."

  • i just say thanks......

  • waaaaa im so thirsty how can i drink!!!???? SAVE MEEE

  • this was actually helpful in a way...

  • how can i walk with two legs?

  • Next on Howcast: How to breathe.

    You will need- Air  A will to breathe

    Step 1: Breathe.

    Did you know- People breathe every day!

  • @celza6198 AND people stop breathing everyday.....

  • If I followed these instructions,

    that's all I'd do all day.

  • She looks like Lindsay Lohan.

  • How to take a compliment:

    Step 1: Say thank you

    Congrats! Now you're done!

    Did you know: This video is pointless!

  • guys. howcast puts a lot of effort into these videos. be nice. i bet you couldnt come up with all these ideas. and some people dont know how to do this because they are shy. like me. thank you howcast. fuck haters.

  • LOL

  • Step 1: Say "thank you."

  • Just say 'thank you' how hard can that me

  • actually low self esteem is what's wrong in the world,if everyones self esteem was healthy it would be a great life...the ideal self esteem level is that of Joe Black in Meet Joe Black...

  • Oooo these girls are getting frisky!(;

  • Video should have been over at :26

  • if you need a video on how to handle someone being nice to you. then you have some fucking issues.

  • Next video: How to look at a person

    You will need:

    an eye

    a person to look at

    Optional:

    Blue, green or brown colored eyes,

    2 eyes.

    

  • I think it's good to post videos like these because some people really can't pick up seemingly obvious things intuitively as most of you can, and might have to be taught these things by other people, or through research. Perhaps it would be a good video for professionals to show to their smaller classes.

    "You played really well in snooker last week, Willard."

    "I know. I'm amazing at snooker ... and chess, and darts, and kong-fu, and fencing, and opera singing, for that matter!"

  • @Ilovecats112233 wtf is snooker? and willard is the weirdest name ever...

  • @Koolkid736 Well, I'm from England and snooker is a ball game played on a large rectangular board (snooker table), and players use a stick aiming to poke the ball into one of he nets. It's not a terribly popular sport as lots of people find it dull. And as for your remark about my cat's name - I think he'd be a bit upset that you described it as 'weird', but certainly he'd like to think he's the only Willard in the world. Well, he isn't. He's named after the opera singer Willard White.

  • @Ilovecats112233 Canadians play snooker too

  • Comment removed

  • Coming up : how to watch how-to videos! Stay tuned!

  • how does teaching my children taking a compliment help me to take 1? 0.o

  • ...Wait..is this a joke?

  • dont forget 2 do the shoulder raise

  • Comment removed

  • they look like a lesbian couple

  • @BRboi777 Is that because they're young and look quite close in age? How if one of them were over forty or fifty, would that be different? I've quite often found that ladies of that age will come and stroke the glittery cat picture on my top or play with my hair whilst giving compliments: "Those pigtails and ribbons are so sweet, they make you look about two and a half!" Come to think of it, I don't know whether to take that as a compliment, but there's an example!

  • @Ilovecats112233 nope, on the contrary: it's because (i think) they look very masculine for a woman. :)

  • Step 1. Say thank you and move on

  • Just fucking be yourself.

    You don't have to put on a front or fake appreciation.

    I wouldn't do it. Maybe for my boss but why be fake for no reason?

  • #OMG !! #LOL how nice!!! :-)

    Compliments #FTW !

  • 16,000 View ! :D

  • yay! I love it when they use this backround music... its my favorite.. lol

  • whos the girl with dark hair?

  • Optional: Booze.

  • lol

    u.s is depressed

  • This video is just screaming "DESPERATE".

    Next video: How To Say Hi To a Person

  • You will need:

    A mouth.

    Optional:

    A brain.

  • i know, rite?

  • @candygrl36 maybe your confident and dont see why peeps would need this, but for an insecure person it is a very hard thing to deal with! LoL (;

  • @candygrl36 HAHA LOL!

  • Most compliments are fake.

  • when someone complimets me i just say: "F*ck you you little piece of sh*t! You think you can play ming games on me!? Well think again pal!"

    That's a normal response. Try that it really helps...

  • @Pintoleite3 hahah you legend

  • I need to send this to my ex girlfriend. She wonders why I broke up with her... xD

  • nice tits!

  • Compliment:

    You look different, did you shave your unibrow?

  • @PETZPC1 LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO

  • @PETZPC1 are you referring to Burt in Sesame Street?

  • "When someone gives you a compliment. Smile and say Thank You."

    WHAT? SERIOUSLY?! : O

  • Yes people need simple reminders like that.Don't try to be smart.

  • they seem like they are hitting on each other...lol. but what if you do all of these in a joking manner? like are you arrogant anyways especially when you act humble afterwards and give a compliment right back???

  • Haha I know. I expected them to lean over and kiss each other in the end.

    PETZPC1 -- LOL!

    Compliments don't have anything to do with depression.

    Oh and... IF ANY OF YOU COMPLIMENT ME, I'LL RIP YOUR FACE OFF.

  • Compliments:

    You smell so good. What is that perfume you are wearing, bacon.

  • compliment:

    You look different; did you shave your back?

  • Compliment: If you weren't married I'd hit that.

  • You look less ugly today.

  • What does antidepressants have to do with compliments?

  • idk maybe more people smile more when giving them-lol.

  • Compliments have to do with repelling depressions , so the antidepressants.

  • they make people happy... ie. less depressed (I know depression and sadness are different blahbadeeblah)

  • they look like lesbos.

  • they are, check out the kissing videos or sumthin, u can see them makin out.

    Soy tan emocionado que Richard Saskle me envió por correo electrónico

  • aha alright. woo hoo Jesus

  • It's really hard to take a compliment in Denmark because of the JanteLaw.

    People literally don't want you to be happy about the compliment... - 'Cause that shows arogance, and way too much selfconfidense.

    It sux.

  • Right you are!

  • wats the JanteLaw..?

  • The JanteLaw is a danish law written in the 70's or something like that.

    The whole point with the law is;

    "Don't think you're bettet than anybody else. Don't think you're something better. Don't think you're special, 'Cause you're not. Don't act and feel better than us"

    Ergo; feel like shit, and let them treat you like shit.

  • hmmm... i wanna visit denmark someday lol

  • ohhhh... when i went to Denmark, everyone seemed like "eh whatever" when i gave them a compliment and i thought it was because i said something bad lol... but now i know why. thanks haha

  • LEZBO'S!!!!!!!

  • wHY ARE NON OF THESE VIDEOS FUNNY ANYMORE

  • god, you people. why so serious? how many of you actually watched this video to get instructions on how to take a compliment. most people watch for the sake of entertainment. thats it. entertainment and pure curiosity on what is howcast view. lol.....dont be so serious all the time people.

  • And here I thought Howcast couldn't release an even more pointless video, but they just proved me wrong.

    Howcast please make a video telling me how to breath, eat, and use the bathroom.

  • I love her jacket!!! (LL)

  • hah i always say nice hair or shoes when some one complements me, even though they might not have either

  • Do you people see what the world has become to these days? People are LITERALLY making instructions and tips on how to take a compliments! Just say "Thank you!" Soon America will be called YouTube America and the Planet Earth will be renamed to Google Earth if we keep going like this!

  • Just say "Thanks."

    For fucks sake, people need instructions for this?

  • That is one ugly child

  • How to Take a Compliment: Say thank you

    these videos are gettting shitty

  • 0:33

    "oh thank you, i have been working on my buns"

  • geez just say thank you....

  • i like the narrators voice

  • Im guessing they mentioned the antidepressants for the people that are insecure about themselves so it somewhat relates to the video .

  • how to take a compliment

    just say fkn thank you

  • FUCKING THANK YOU!!! XD

  • seriously,what antidepressant drugs has to do with talking compliments?? duh!!

  • omg yes i know. end of the video tip is a fail!

  • fake child fail

  • i actually broke up with a girl because she would act very cocky after i would give her a compliment and that got old QUICK!

  • hey i have the same two tons colored black/grey shirt as that girl does on the left lol.wht the mention of anti depressant drugs at the end? it had nothign to do with the video....anyhow those drugs suck bigtime!

  • actually this helped me HAHA it seems pointless but i actually find it hard to take compliments without feeling uncomfortable

  • yeah same here, i even sometimes get a little embarrassed. :)

  • wtf? random fact at the end

    "be sure to say thank you, oh and people love prescription drugs!"

    ?

  • The woman with the sunglasses = lesbian.

    The music = porn or game show music.

    This video = retarded

  • :50 to : 54 lol :P

  • How to Compliment your Poop

  • your looking more brownish today

  • Lol, if someone gives you a compliment, I think that if you return a compliment to them instantly it would sound really dishonest, even if you really meant it.

  • Antidepressants are only the most prescribed medication in the united states because Opioids are illegal.

  • you know why antidepressants are the most prescribed. cause doctors want the money and depression is EASY to diagnose. i bet only some of the people really have depression.. i also bet that ADD drugs are close for the same reason

  • i guess they say about the antidepressants cause people,,who normaly would react bad about a compliment are those who don´t feel well,they can be rude...and many...many people have bad humour and are so ignorant like people who come here to watch the video...and criticize...

  • i always say thank you whenever i get a compliemt this is so stupid... @24dickstionarys LAWL

  • wtf does the random fact in the end have to do with this

  • Anti depressants are prescribed most because doctors will say "There's nothing wrong you're just depressed".

    My mother had Hepatitis C for over a year before it was found. She couldn't get any of the doctors at the local hospital to actually examine her, all they ever said was "You're depressed" or "You're too stressed".

  • ????

  • 0:58: it looks like they're flirting.

  • Why is the anti-depressant info important for how to take a compliment?

    :-/

  • They should call this:"How to take a dick"

  • It would be interresting with these 2 girls.

  • Next up from Howcast: "How to operate a doorknob", followed by "How to open a window"

  • There's a part of me that hopes there is someone who goes though all of these kind of Howcast videos and makes notes.

  • @ChrisLovesOasis I take notes...

    I make sure to look over them before responding to compliments. Observe:

    "Wow, that's a great shirt you have on today."

    "Um...one moment..."

    *shuffles through notes, reading until finding the proper response*

    "...uh...thank you?"

  • I can never take compliments... :P

  • 0:36 lol

  • The reason why anti-depressants are prescribed so much is that they are used to treat more psychiatric disorders than just depression.

  • Hell they're over used. Friggin docs are quick to prescribe them and the drug companies are all the happier to supply them.

  • This music is lesbian music

  • @TheCliffordCult Rofl so true

  • mMm ... LESbians ...

  • How to take a compliment: SAY THANK YOU. >_>

  • same here :(
