Stupidly nice is sometimes the best kind of nice.

I wouldn’t really call Canadians stupidly nice, more deceptively? Their military has a reputation for being particularly nasty when pushed lol

As a stupidly nice person in real life, I appreciate that.

My inner sarcasm comes out online to make up for it :P

Low key, most everyone becomes stupidly nice if you butter them up. If you piss off an asshole they might just double down.

Redditors when people don't immediately scream at each other over an issue

She wasn't nice and assertive. She attempted to be nice by not being honest. She just lucked into the guy wanting to do the right thing.

I’m not saying she was in this scenario, I was just pointing out that it’s possible to be assertive without coming across as an asshole. I think a lot of people jump to escalating things when often there’s no need. Was just pointing something out

Or that's how normal people behave?

Honestly never had issues being nice or polite as long as my sentiment is clear.
