Weirdest compliment

Have you ever had someone give you a compliment that sounds strange or bizarre?
Here are the two weirdest compliments I have received:
1. When I was 19 I was crossing the street and a man shouted very loudly: The Holy Virgin has fallen from Heaven! (He looked at me and I was the only woman around, so he was referring to me...unless the Holy Virgin actually appeared to him.)LOL
:eek:
2. My best friend told me that I don't seem to be from this planet ...in a good way... I hope:+
 
I had some guy come up to me at a party and ask if I was in the Army, because I was so buff.:p I guess that's a compliment.
 
Shelley I had the same thing, only the guy asked if I was a lesbian <snort>.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming ‘Wow - what a ride!’ — Peter Sage
 
Well, a month or so ago I had an older gentleman (a neighbor) tell me that I was the cat's meow!!!! LOL It totally cracked me up!!! And he also said to tell my husband to keep a shotgun by the front door to keep the other men away!!! He really is a nice older man who just happens to speak his mind, I guess! My dh got a laugh out of it too!

Hugs,
 
A number of older women thought that my son was my husband a few years ago. Then, just last year, a peer in his 40's, like me, thought the same thing!!!!! :7 }(
 
A fellow from the Philippines once told me that I was 'sturdy'. I truly think he was trying to compliment me but since english was his second language I think he just couldn't think of the right word (well at least I hope!).
 
Years ago I was dating a texan... I met his grandpa at a family party who proceeded to shout: "My God girl you are beautiful, look at those child bearing hips"... I was at my smallest in life then too (size 4).. at my age/size now what would gramps say????
 
Every six months or so, some complete stranger stops me on the street and says (and I quote), "You have a really great skull."

(um . . . okay.)

THANKS FOR SHARING, DUDE!

Here's an odd one.... the lawyer who did our house closing proposed to my SO and I that we engage in a little swapping.:eek: And he kept saying that he couldn't believe I was the same age as him. It was a little awkward.
 
This is a fun question......
3 top weird contenders
1. You have great eyebrows (from a man)
2. Your eyes are perfectly spaced on your face (from a man)
3. Are you a cop (from a woman) ......I guess I look mean in the gym }(
 
When my husband played in a band, I was still quite young and a little naive. Two women appeared to be flirting with my husband and I got angry. When I approached them to tell them off, one woman turned to me, handed me her room key and told me, "It was you that we wanted anyway!" I was so flabbergasted I didn't know what to say!

These elderly widowed lady/family friends of ours .. we went to visit them .. they always hug and kiss all over us .. the youngest one (think she is around 70) .. looked and said:

"Oh ... child .. you are so thick" ...

THICK?? uummmm .. ok .. she was trying to pay me a compliment (I think) .. but that was a strange way of saying muscular .. LOL ..

bless her heart .. I crack up everytime I think about it .. :7
 
I got eyebrows too. And from the same guy "I love your neck". He really didn't have a neck, so maybe he was envious.
 
Oh yeah, the thick one reminded me, once some guy who worked with my roomate called me "look at miss cutie roomate with the big legs". He was hitting on me, and I had short shorts on, so I like to think maybe he meant long legs, or maybe muscular legs, but big legs? Ick.
 
I was wearing a skirt one day, and a guy friend came up to me and said, "Wow, you look like a wrestler." My other friend who was with me burst out laughing, and my guy friend look flustered and said that he meant it as a complement.

And then another time I was wearing a skirt with high heels, and a woman co-worker/friend was following me down the hallway of cubicals, and said, "Now I know why men forced women to wear high heels for so long. Look at those calves!"
 
As I was bending down getting something out of the fridge, a female co-worker told me that I was losing weight in all the right places.

For some reason, it creeped me out a little.
