Sorry for the silly question, but a gentleman from Kansai whom I recently met a few times after receiving an offer—and who resembles a grasshopper—told me that, on a scale of 1 to 10, he’d rate my looks a 7.

Is that supposed to be a compliment???

I’m a male member, Fullerene! He wasn’t really complimenting you, was he? Maybe he was simply sharing his impression. I can sense the questioner’s intense frustration coming through in Kirigirisu’s post. At the same time, I also get the feeling that it’s not quite serious enough to report as a complaint, which leaves things feeling unresolved. It’s a silly but peaceful question. I love questions like this.

Maezawa from the CEO’s Office here. Thank you for your question. Sometimes it’s more enjoyable to look at things positively. In this case, it may be best to assume that this person had only ever given someone a maximum of 6 points before, so you received his highest-ever score: 7. That said, I could understand it if he said you were a 10 out of 10, but telling someone they’re a 7 is rather baffling.

I’m Tetsu, a male member. I don’t think that was meant as a compliment. You’re only upper-middle by katydid standards, right? Still, since it’s based on katydid standards, I wouldn’t worry about it too much either way. A katydid is that slightly flat-looking green grasshopper, isn’t it?

I’m Flag Maker, a column writer. “So what gives you the right, looking like a grasshopper, to act so high and mighty and call yourself a ‘7 out of 10’? If you ask me, you’re a 1 out of 10—or rather, you’re not even human; you’re an insect!” That’s what you meant, right? Please allow me to speak on your behalf.
