About This Quote

"Congratulations" is the most common phrase used to congratulate someone on completing a goal or achieving some other success. It is not necessarily a positive statement, but it is usually delivered with good wishes of future success. But what are you supposed to do if your friend has just been shot at? If you are an American, you would probably say "congratulations." However, that would be the wrong thing to say for this child's birthday party. The correct thing to say is "treat yourself."
