Question #6 from Ashley (Want to know what this is about? Read this post):

What is the meanest thing someone has ever said to you, and conversely, what is the nicest compliment you have ever received?

Usually, the types of people who would say mean things about me are the types of people who would say mean things about me, but not to my face (for various reasons— I’m not trying to seem like some super tough guy that beats up anyone that says mean things about me).

Mix that in with my bad memory and the only times I even remember being ridiculed is when I was battling other rappers. And when you’re in that type of setting, it’s all just words. They’re (usually) not trying to start some fight that goes beyond the rhymes.

Some nice compliments include Annie saying that I have nice hands. I don’t see it, but if she does, I’ll take her word for it.

Also, when I put effort into something (like writing a story or rhyming a verse), it’s nice to get some recognition.

A lot of people have been complimenting me for losing a lot of weight (around thirty pounds), even though it was totally unintentional. That’s the only compliment I ever hear while in my house, actually.

Annie’s answer:
The good things that come to mind are too special to share and I don’t think Chris would want me to reveal what a sucker he is, haha. But I’m okay about sharing this one and I hope he is too.

Almost two years ago, before Chris and I were a couple, he said to me, “We’re not even dating yet and I already love you more than I’ve ever loved any girl.”

As for insults though, I’d be willing to share any one of those with any one of you. It’s always been my personal philosophy to not take looking foolish too seriously because I figure I’d just have a funny story to tell my friends.

For example, one time after work I stuffed an enormous out of the oven chocolate chip cookie in my mouth for no particular reason and then couldn’t speak for a long time because my mouth was pretty much stuck together due to the gooey chocolate and buttery dough. Of course someone had to approach me at that time and ask me what my name was. I couldn’t answer because of the cookie and I think he thought I was being rude to him since I just stood there chewing for like three minutes. So he said, “Is it asshole?” and walked away while I continued trying to swallow. I’m a retard.
