Compliment Fail

I'm walking back from the cafeteria at work and run into a coworker from another department. She says, "Jason! You're looking quite svelte." I think to myself...svelte? I reply, "Thanks, you too!"

Her reaction was like "...umm, okay...". Then we proceeded to chit chat.

Get back to my desk and look up svelte. It means slender. She's a bigger lady.

Fail.
