It might be that the person doing the praising is not brilliant either.

Praise is such an ingrained part of our culture, I feel like my generation has been praised throughout our lives for every little, entirely normal thing we do. It takes so very little. It feels hollow and fake, social norm that is followed.

I cannot construe praise to be anything beyond "affirmative, the task was done and there was nothing so wrong with it that it needs mention".

I don't like to receive "high praise" it feels patronizing at the very least.
