Intelligence, without a doubt! Except I am rubbish at accepting compliments, they make me incredibly uncomfortable!

Looks (I already know I'm brilliant).

Randall, reading some posts of yours make me trow my hands up in the air and scream MAMMA MIA!

My answer is intelligence.

I'll enjoy the intelligence compliment if it comes at the end of my saying something brilliant. That is a satisfying compliment, especially if it's from someone who was previously unaware of my intelligence.

Otherwise, compliments on looks are always nice.

Looks. I've never considered intelligence as important, I think hard work is better and (don't deny it) looks do put a certain first impression on people.

Intelligence!

Neither - compliments make me really uncomfortable if they're about my looks (as in, I blush) or my intelligence.

If it's a compliment for a job well done, that's another thing entirely - that I'll accept with a smile. Maybe it's the 6th house Cancer moon.

If it's a compliment about my son, I just say "I know", sounding like I'm pretty arrogant. Can't help it, though, he's a pretty good specimen!

gimme a bit of it all baby.

They can compliment my ability to babyspeak to a puppy and my Leo Rising is luminous.


That said: Intelligence. I love when people compliment my looks but my intellect is always more special. Because if I were in a disfiguring accident, the impermanence of looks would be apparent, and the endless applications of wit and intelligence would be foremost.

I rather be complemented on looks..when people tell me i'm smart i just roll my eyes because I don't believe them.You can never be too smart and there is always room for improvement.I'd never admit to being smart,because i'll never know everything.
