This should be asked couple of women to do, who sometimes work in the same shift with me. They bash practically anyone, either a co-worker, who's not in the room at the moment, politicians, anyone on tv...

They possibly could only be forced to say some nice words to each other, but not anyone else in the room, even though they aren't strangers.

But a few polite (but meaningless?) compliments are nice, like are the 'hellos' and 'goodbyes'.
