Give yourself a beak!
You're a DUCK, fer crissake!
You're SUPPOSED to duck when effusive stuff happens.
It's not like it's water off a duck's back, to you.
You get your tail feathers in a spin.
Seriously, yes, lots of people get embarrassed by effusive praise.
I certainly do.
AND I get funny and such.
I have trained myself to handle normal compliments ok, but effusive praise is is, well, overly effusive for me.
But hey nemmind, shut the duck up, sit the cocksuck down, and try to take it on the beak.
