Today, I politely complimented a stranger's excellent posture. She responded by saying "I have a metal rod in my back." FML

you should've smiled and winked and said "oooh, so THAT'S your secret." *nod, elbow nudge* like you're part of some kind of special, elite straight-back club. pat them on the back and walk off.

Then you should have retracted your compliment saying that she cheated. You don't compliment guys on their muscles if you know they've been using steroids, do you?

she probably had a spine issue such as scoliosis and had a major surgery to correct it, followed my months of regaining her core strength. maybe it's a delicate issue and a hard part in her life. she still could have said thank you though.

Geeez. She couldve just said thank you. It's not like she had a big sign saying "I have a metal rod in my back" How could you have known that

I've had the same surgery. lots of people comment on my posture but I usually joke about it. it's really not that bad? there's no excuse to be rude
