Congratulations to Brittany T of B Block for earning "Blog Post of the Week!" Her explanation of why one should be careful when trusting flatters is interestingly presented!
Take a look below:
"I do agree with the moral of the fable “The Fox And The Crow”. You
should never trust flatterers because some people don’t mean it. For
example, in the movie “Mean Girls”, one of the main characters, Regina
says to a girl “I like your bracelet” and when the girl walks away,
Regina says “that’s the most hideous bracelet I’ve ever seen”. Some
people, like Regina, just flatter you to be nice or when you are just
standing there awkwardly, they compliment someone just to start a
conversation or to just to say something. Some flatterers exaggerate.
For instance, if someone says to you “That’s the most prettiest bracelet
I’ve ever seen,” they are totally exaggerating. They have probably seen
prettier bracelets, they are just saying that to make you feel special.
Flatterers should never be trusted!"
