Miss Manners' basic training: the right thing to say

Trama

For the myriad rudeness that today passes for consolation, congratulation, and other forms of verbal communication, Miss Manners provides politely pointed comebacks as well as the gracious and proper thing to say in any situation. Miss Manners hereby declares that "You look terrific-did you have a facelift?" is not an acceptable compliment.
