The other day I overheard someone say to my friend Steve "You've never looked better."
Steve replied "Thank you that is so kind of you to say."
I pointed out to Steve that this was not necessarily a compliment. What if this person, for instance, thought Steve had consistently looked like crap for as long as he had known him? Then perhaps "You've never looked better" might just mean that this person thought Steve just looked slightly better than crap on this particular day.
