Oh my goodness. My brother's and I adore your videos, and your charisma always makes us laugh. We were just saying the other day how it's a shame we haven't seen a video from you in a long while and we wish you would upload more (assuming that your videos would just pop up on our front page when you upload). Little did I know that UA-cam hasn't been updating me on when you upload, so when I stumbled upon your channel late at night to find FIVE new videos for me to watch, I was thrilled and messaged my brothers immediately! I giggled so much. So true. It's so awkward when someone shows you a picture and you're sitting there thinking "Wow... that is not flattering at all." and you don't know what to say, but you don't want to lie to them. Thanks for the tip, boo!
Compared to your more serious vids, this was very funny and wonderfully silly. People told my parents that I looked like Winston Churchill as a baby. It sounded like a compliment, but they really meant that I was ugly.
tsopmocful Well, Churchill was responsible for the deaths of about 4 million Indians, so you needn't necessarily take it as a compliment from the other way either. Lol.
My dad, also a doctor, when asked if this isn't the most beautiful baby he ever saw, would say "THAT'S a baby!" Another friend used to say "AAAHHHHhhhh."
Dear FacebookLaird(something) 😆, You really are a darling. And no disingenuousness! Very cute! Thanks for the tips. And I see your beauty, both inner and outer, darlin'! Toodles!
I actually watched a comedy before, the heroine could only speak frankly. When her friend showed the picture of the her child, asking if he's cute, then the heroine just said, "No, he's ugly."
Well educated and cultured, stylish, and sincere! I'll keep those "KEY" words in my vocabulary! Being 54 years old have been divorced (X1)at times cynical and easily "TEMPTED" nobody escapes 'MY" wrath(tongue and cheek)eye wink!
I'm a boy and something very very bad happened to me, lm depressed and all l think about is those moments when that bad thing happened and all lm doing these past few days is crying. But thank God l found this new video from you, cause you finally made me laugh. :) THANK YOU! Post more if you can, please :) I can't say I'm religious but l can definitely say God bless you:)
Tomba 2 Hey Tomba 2! I’m really sorry that you experienced that very very bad situation. Hang in there and give yourself some time to get over it. This too shall pass. I’m glad my video could bring a smile to your face.
This reminds me of when my dad was driving his car and accidentally answered a call from a person he didn’t want to speak to- they said “Hello, is that George?” And he said “I’m sorry, George is driving.” Technically not a lie but also meant it cleared the person away!
We could be BEST FRIENDS 🤗🤣😂🙋❤️😁 HOWEVER.....😂 this time I'm curious. Is there no chance the person you had this encounter with will see/has seen this video and KNOW it's about her? 😂😂😂😂😂
"Honey, hush!!", that's what my brother-in-law's Mom always said. Or you could always say what we down in the South say, "Well Bless your/her/his heart!". I always am sincere though when I say "BYH", but been told by a New Englander friend she hates that phrase. She says it's disheartening and degrading. I don't believe so, from me at least, personally. Although, I could see how it could come across that way if said by those small town Gossip types. Or could say, "If that doesn't just beat all!!" So, I'll say now, Honey hush!! I do so look forward to your future videos, with you being so intelligent and all (pretty too, lol!)!! ((hugs!)) 😉
I try to find something to say that, while true, doesn't offend. Particularly young newlyweds who try making their own clothes, I will say, "Did you make that all by yourself? Wow!" Another good one is, "How original!" If it's a baby (and I don't do babies, to me they're all pretty lumpy lookin') I find something cute to say about how they have big eyes, or a lot of hair, or no hair at all, or whatever.
Hahahaha!!! I say things like this also. Like when I see an ugly baby, cause truth be told most new borns look like hairless rat, I just say “Aww how little!!” ... little. Not cute. Not even adorable. Little.
I guess this is better than outright lying...which I tend to do in those situations. Btw, if you're not saying you're beautiful now then i'll say it for you, you're beautiful...no lie! :)
I'm not sure I fully appreciate the difference between insincere attitude, and insincere words. While the things you said were true to the letter, the intent behind them was deceitful. If you can't trust that I speak in earnest, you have no way to know my intent when I say that I'm happy that you made this video.
That is a tactic I found that works only on most people. Some are sharp enough to know you're really saying nothing. So I've learned to say very little nothing, or just nod, smile. btw that reminds me of that Seinfeld episode where a mother has no clue that her baby is ugly. "Elaaine! Ya gatta look at the baybee!" (Kramer nearly has a seizure from looking at it) Did you watch Seinfeld?
It's funny how Seinfeld did not look like a possible winning show at all in the beginning. On paper, that is. I too would have thought it'll get cancelled soon. But it turned out to be my favorite sitcom of all time. Also, have you seen Jason Alexander in other roles, like in opera? I love watching highly skilled actors like him!
Hi. I searched for your latest video in order to comment on an old one where you ranted about the pronunciation of ask. I am not nearly as scholastically educated as you. My highest degree is a GED, but as yourself, am a bit of a stickler concerning proper speech but I think we are a dying breed. It is true that a lot of black people say ax but it's hard to blame them as they have grown up hearing it said that way from infancy and it's become generational. The sad fact is that by no means only, but partly due to, the rap culture and those who follow it, which includes people of all races, Americans are growing dumber by the minute. There are MANY non blacks who say I had went and I had saw etc. Most people can't write a very short comment correctly, much less a proper letter, even with spell checks on their computers. Presidents say helocopter and nucular for goodness' sake. And I just can't seem to think of a single newscaster who can say February, or anyone else for that matter. Webster's dictionary may as well make the change now to FebUary. I really like your videos. Just felt the need to leave you with a little rant of my own :-)
fblairmd66 It's so irritating when people make false assumptions about any given thing and expect one to react in a predictable, conforming fashion. Nobody likes to be "put on the spot", so to speak. Talk about a lack of objectivity....so often we err. Thanks for the video. Guidance always helps.
I completely agree! Unfortunately, I think it requires quite a sharp sense of social awareness to think that far ahead - to be able to place yourself in the shoes of others and quickly analyze how what you have to say will conjure any feelings of pressure or awkwardness. I'm not a particularly neurotic person, but I'm definitely wary about putting people on the spot. I notice people all around me not relenting with their deprecating or unfunny humor as the other party squirms in discomfort... and they're obvious to it! So I just have to interject to try and save the person embarrassment. Ah, if only we lived in a world where we were all socially aware. I would NEVER get off on how hot I look in a picture and just shove my phone in someone's face expecting them to shower me with praise. The thought just makes me cringe.
I really enjoy your videos. I think you’re hilarious and quite brilliant. But, here, you are being very judgmental. You’re right: You are beautiful. But I promise you not all will agree. So who are you to think you’re opinion is right about someone else’s appearance? And, more importantly, why are you teaching others in this video on how to judge, based on appearance? All creation is by the hand of God and you have no place to judge it.
"Her makeup was garish--ghastly garish!!" ICONIC

I’m new to your channel. I’m going to love this. I can really relate. It’s better than saying something that can come off insulting them. Win win. 👌🏽
You are so awesome! You made my day. I will remember those responses. Just coffee talk!
Miss, you are amazing! I always look forward to watching your videos because you are so brilliant and entertaining!! Thank you for sharing!

I just recently discovered your channel and I must say you've become one of my favorite people on this website. You go, girl!
Your friendliness and optimism always make my day. I look forward to your videos.
OMGosh! I will keep this info on file for future use! Love it!
My dad, also a doctor, when asked if this isn't the most beautiful baby he ever saw, would say "THAT'S a baby!" Another friend used to say "AAAHHHHhhhh."
You are beautiful Doctor, God bless you 🙏🏻
Dear FacebookLaird(something) 😆,
You really are a darling. And no disingenuousness! Very cute!
Thanks for the tips. And I see your beauty, both inner and outer, darlin'!
Toodles!
I was waiting for another vid!!! Keep it up !!!😀
This reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Jerry and company look at a mutual friend's apparently very ugly baby! It's a classic. :cD
Your friends & family will be looking out for you now when they show you a picture 😂
Okaaaay look at yuuuuu!!! 💟 hahahaha love it.
You rock. Good advice.
I actually watched a comedy before, the heroine could only speak frankly. When her friend showed the picture of the her child, asking if he's cute, then the heroine just said, "No, he's ugly."
Mason. We can't all be truthful All the time or in some instances we'd blurt out "someone give that kid a banana". lol
All kids are not precious.
Not all kids are precious! Same words, different meaning.
Genius, auntie, genius!!!
J Si 😊
I am dying haha I will use this for sure!
Well educated and cultured, stylish, and sincere! I'll keep those "KEY" words in my vocabulary! Being 54 years old have been divorced (X1)at times cynical and easily "TEMPTED" nobody escapes 'MY" wrath(tongue and cheek)eye wink!
0:55
You're subtly axing for a compliment! You know you are pleasing to the eye.
You are too funny.😂
This channel is severely underrated for being several years old :(
Loves it!!! = )
Heck yeah I'm using it...thanks!!
You’re FANTASTIC!✨✨
At 0:58 you say, "I'm not saying I'm beautiful now." Oh but you ARE beautiful!
Corrie Tapp Awwww, thank you!
Along the same lines, when someone asks me a nosey, intrusive question such as what's your income, I say, "How soon do you need to know?"
Jim Berg That’s a brilliant reply!
Also....😂
Disingenuous... Never heard/read that, EVER. Thank you for being such an amazing teacher ❤️

I love your videos. They are always so enlightening and entertaining.
I do that anyway. I am always unimpressed when people bore the ass off you with their holiday/ family/baby pics. God.
up4atgal Hilarious!
First view and first comment! This is hilarious and brilliant! You are so real! And you are beautiful!
Deborah Parks Hi Deborah! Thanks for being the first!
Haha I Lovr you you're so funny!
We could be BEST FRIENDS 🤗🤣😂🙋❤️😁 HOWEVER.....😂 this time I'm curious. Is there no chance the person you had this encounter with will see/has seen this video and KNOW it's about her? 😂😂😂😂😂
Haha! That was my thought too! Hopefully this person doesn't watch any youtube channels or know the good Dr. doesn't have her own channel! ;c)
Oooops! I meant to say 'the good Dr. HAS her own channel...
Nice one!!!
Lol, thats hilarious
You are a Mess!! Good Advice!

N McD Lol! I was going to mention the “Bless your heart” but forgot to. The joke around my office is that when you hear that, you’re really bad off!
For kids I tend to go for, "Aww bless her heart." I'm a little too white for the sassy/cute "I see you!"
I try to find something to say that, while true, doesn't offend. Particularly young newlyweds who try making their own clothes, I will say, "Did you make that all by yourself? Wow!" Another good one is, "How original!"

I freaking love you!
You ARE beautiful. ❤

too funny
LOL!!
You’re so funny!
Yeah but what do you say when the person sees this video?
Ok, watching video about awkward stuff was awkward.
You are awesome!

Can I ax you a question? Lol how I found you...
hahahaha!!!
Whenever I look in the mirror I react the same. ;]
Haha. Great!
hahaha this can WORK!
I died lol
My mom has done this for years. Precious is not good lol. I hope the lady don't watch your videos 😂😂
I thought you all americans used to find words for that and it's a usual situation
I hope they won't watch this video haha
I hope this was not someone who watches your videos................ you better not use that one anymore!
