Of all the Comedy Tropes out there, this... is one of them. A character is called upon to say something positive about a subject or a person, but they can't think of anything nice to say that wouldn't be blatantly untrue. Rather than lying, they give some neutral statement (or in some cases insult) that would make Captain Obvious proud, and dress it up like a compliment. Alternatively, the resident smartass may deliberately quip this way in order to damn with faint praise. Commonly used in the service of Self-Deprecation. Compare Shaped Like Itself, Half-Baked Niceness and Overly Narrow Superlative. See I Believe That You Believe It. When someone gives this answer in response to a serious question, it's a Mathematician's Answer. |

In Professor Layton and the Curious Village, a minigame revolves around distributing decorative items between Layton and Luke depending on who prefers which. Each character provides a quote for each item which provides an indication of how much they would appreciate it, some of which come under this. | |

On Cheers, Sam's friend, sportscaster Dave Richards, stops by the bar, and Norm excitedly asks him to repeat his closing remark from his report the night before. Dave says, "Oh, I said, uh, 'Good night, and remember: the world is full of winners and losers. Here's hoping you're one of them.'" Norm, a little deflated, says, "Well, I guess I did hear it right." | |

The Simpsons: In "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bangalore", when Comic Book Guy interviews Richard Dean Anderson, he says that, out of the four "Star" franchises (Wars, Trek, -gate, and Search), Stargate is his third favorite, which leads Anderson to say "I get that a lot.". "The Homer They Fall" reveals that Moe had a boxing career in which he was initially known as "Kid Gorgeous," then "Kid Presentable," then "Kid Gruesome," and finally "Kid Moe." |

Wondermark #972. An unnamed man is shown an old children's toy and snarks that "it has a lot of qualities. [...] Playing with this is such a unique experience!"

In Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, the narration describes WayForward Technologies (which is not the real life WayForward Technologies) as being the only British software company that can be mentioned in the same sentence as American companies like Microsoft or Lotus. It then goes on to note that the sentence would probably start something like "WayForward Technologies, unlike such major U.S. companies as Microsoft or Lotus..." One edition of the book advertised itself on the cover as being "Shorter than War and Peace!" |

In The Pink Panther series, Chief Inspector Dreyfus (Herbert Lom) is called on to make a speech praising Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers). With everything neutral (there was no one else like him) he says, he bursts out laughing, while others believe he has lost control of his emotions and is crying. Once at the funeral of the supposedly dead Clouseau, and once when programming the computer which will find the missing Clouseau. | |

Wicked: when Galinda tries to give Elphaba her unwanted hat in "Dancing Through Life", the best compliment she can give is "it's really, uh, sharp". For reference, it's the pointy black hat that later becomes a key component of Elphaba's outfit as the Wicked Witch of the West, so that's probably the best thing Galinda could say about it. | |

3rd Rock from the Sun. Dick has to write an eulogy for a very unpleasant man he barely knew. After a few tries that used Gallows Humor, he eventually went with describing matter turning to energy at light speed as a poetic metaphor for the moment of death. Most of the humans, including his girlfriend Mary, loved it; his alien family laughed over how trite it was (apparently it's an overused cliché by galactic standards). | |

Rimmer's emotional farewell speech in the Red Dwarf episode "Holoship" ends: "I just want to say that over the years, I have come to regard you as people I... met." His "I Am Great!" Song in Blue soon runs out of rhymes for Rimmer and settles for "He's never been mistaken for Yul Brynner", which would be difficult to do. |

In The Familiar of Zero, the principal of the magic academy lays down some praise for Louise, Kirche, and Tabitha after they capture Fouquet. He praises Kirche and Tabitha on their magic abilities. Louise receives praise for coming from a noble family that has created very capable mages. Combine that with the fact that every mage at the academy comes from a noble family of mages, it's kind of obvious that she does. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer A slightly darker usage in which the gang are investigating a girl who's been turned invisible by the Hellmouth after being treated as invisible. They read her yearbook which is filled with the phrase: "have a good summer", the thing you write when you have absolutely nothing to write. Buffy points out that even Willow contributed. While Xander gets hit with a traditional style version in an episode centering entirely on his own irrelevance. |

Family Guy: A commercial for the ball-in-a-cup toy is basically one long description of a ball-in-a-cup toy. In another episode, Peter is eating "Store-Brand, Imitation Frosted Flakes", and the mascot Terry the Tiger says the slogan "They'rrrrrrrrrre foooood!!" When Mort finds the corpse of his wife: "Oh, my God, Muriel! My sweet Muriel! She was so young— she was so beauti— she was so genero— uh, we were married." |

In one episode of Frasier, the eponymous character is writing a foreword for a book that he didn't like, and desperately reaching for something positive to say. Eventually, he writes that the book can "stand on the shelf next to" many great books of psychiatry. | |

Gravity Falls combines this trope with Our Slogan Is Terrible; Greasy's Diner bears the slogan "We Have Food". | |

Night Court: In one episode, the cast believe sleazy prosecutor Dan Fielding is dead, and Harry is called upon to deliver the eulogy. The best he can come up with is "Dan was a mammal." In another episode, Harry tells a highly sophisticated AI to find reasons to save the life of its suicidal inventor (it makes as much sense in context as Night Court ever does), and it proposes "You are an efficient converter of oxygen to carbon dioxide." |
