Fanbot Needs Your Quirky Compliments

Hi! I created Fanbot, who is a twitter bot to tweet compliments at people. Specifically, I created this particular fanbot to tweet compliments at my brother.

Look at that smolder.

This is my brother. He's a theatre actor! A good one! But he has lots of stress. So I made the bot to tweet compliments at him so he wouldn't forget that he is good at things. Here's the catch.

I only preloaded the bot with ~300 compliments.

It's been about 6 months or so since my last commit, and we're starting to get repeat compliments, so I wanted to ask you all to help me add some. I'm specifically looking for compliments that are just a little odd. Here are some of my favorites, to get your creative juices flowing.

Go ahead and leave them in the comments if you want. If you've never contributed to open source before and are hesitant to do so because you don't know what to contribute to, I would love to have you submit your suggestions by creating a pull request! If you're not sure how or need some help (or just want to chat), my DM's are open. 😬

A couple of caveats:

  1. Let's keep it PG. My mom follows this bot, okay?
  2. Depending on how many ideas people have, I may have to get choosy, so don't feel bad. I'll keep track of all of the submissions as candidates for the next round.

Thanks again!
