      Well, no. Just because we can survive without it doesn’t mean we don’t need it!

      (Though honestly, your reaction was my first snarky thought too!)

      That was my thought too. And not a snarky one, but a genuine one.

      I remember once, giving a civil smile, while thinking ‘meh’, on receiving a compliment once. Because I felt that the complement was for the sake of complementing, but at the same time, the words were +ive, so I felt the need to respond positively.
