An ajuma-turned-English-teacher said to me today, "Your facial expression is good."

I smiled and said thank you, because of course that's what one does.

It was kind of an original way to put it.

Anyone else?

My coworkers started calling me a hyena because I refuse to eat every 30 seconds. Is that a compliment?

I'm usually told I have a good voice. I may speak fast time and time again, but at least I sound good doing it.

After a couple of months lifting weights again, my wife mentioned that my man-boobs have been perking up and de-droopifying.

An ajuma taxi driver reached over, ran her fingers through my hair, and said "beautiful." I was speechless.
