Sometimes people give me compliments that they don't really mean just to generally lubricate the social interaction. They are compliments that I would appreciate if they were sincere, but I can tell that they're just putting them in there to increase the overall postiveness, like how when giving feedback or critique you think of positive things to say and use them to sandwich the negative.
So WTF do I do with this?

Take it to the bank, baby.
My mother is the queen of overcomplimenting. Because of this, none of her compliments mean anything. I can't bank them, because they are zeros.
I don't know why people do this. Discomfort, the need to say anything?
