I have said this for a while but you can really tell a lot about a person by the way others describe them. That is if your willing to read between the lines. I believe that if someone describes a person by saying they are who they are - then that person is more than likely an asshole.
Here is an example of what that might sound like, "Jim is a great guy. Salt of the earth. He would give someone the shirt off of his back. Susy? She is a really sweet girl great sense of humor and sharp as a tack. Frankie? Well, Frankie is Frankie." That should set off an alarm for anybody. The translation is, "Frankie is a jerk and nobody likes him." Can you think of anybody who is described using their name that people like? The answer is no.
It's basically the equivalent of somebody using Thumper's "if you dont have anything nice to say don't say anything at all" advice. We re trying to be polite about the fact that this person is annoying but we aren't exactly hiding it either. So the moral of the story is a) don't be that person and b) if you her someone describes that way run in the opposite direction.
