I would say it's only polite, but this is not a simple matter of manners. But anyway, pilling compliments won't take us anywhere. [Besides the further regions of Awkwardland.]

Oftentimes I thought it would be easier if I just watered down my speech, but as it is my friends are not precisely clueless when it comes to understand me. Then again, they can read it and think about it, so perhaps the fluidity is nothing but a mere lag induced illusion.

And I never repeat myself.
