What is the best compliment you can get from your opponent?

In an OTB game, a friend (toughest rival) once said "Nice combination!" I was pleased.

Other times, "$#!+." warms my heart.

Two best compliments I have received in correspondence chess.

Here is the first one  I will give a position.  I had Black and made one  move and Whitek, who was a very good player gave me the very nice compliment to resign as he knew he would eventually lose...

A "compliment" I will remember forever:

I was playing a game and I won. My opponents "compliment" :

"You suck at chess."

It must have been my game against N.N 1987 when my opponent's face hit the board after I played 23.Nxf7 . I thought he was dead , but he wast just epileptic.

I enjoyed every part of the game except your bad breath.

"You do not look like a chessplayer", would be a real pleasure

Recently a new kid joined our school and started trash talking. "I will beat the entire school chess team."  Man did he get his ass handed to him by me. ;)

I think the best compliment I got was at the end of a fairly complicated tactic, (in which I won a queen) my opponent stared at the board for a solid 3 minutes, blankly, until he finally said, quite simply, "Jesus," and resigned. I can't give you a position because it was years ago and over the board (i.e. not online). Maybe if I scavenge my old collection of notated games. 

What's more is the opponent was a good friend of mine at the time, and we played a lot (so he knew the ins and outs of my game). Knowing that made it all the more pleasurable to hear.
