When someone you don't know very well says something highly insulting to you...

[Random Variable]

but then tries to claim that he or she was only kidding, is he or she full of crap?

 

[FoBoT]

does their breath smell like sh!t?

 

[D1gger]

If you don't know them very well, why do you care?

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

What a maroon...and I mean that in the best possible way.

 

[theprodigalrebel]

Was there a hint of truth in the insult?

 

[SSSnail]

You mean like on ATOT?

 

[alrocky]

Well, what did they say to you? Did they call you, "Backward?"

 

[Siddhartha]

I would step away from someone who needs to be insulting or a jerk. I try to stay away from people who are unpleasant.

1) what did they say
2) is it true in a sense
3) why do u care if it isnt true
4) you obviosly already know the answer to this question
5) you have to take into account their tone of voice, as well as any visual expressions they may have given at the time

Yes, or they're so trashy that they actually think that's appropriate behavior. In either case, they're usually not worth getting to know better.

If you are fat and she called you a fat a$$ then she was serious.
If you are a dork and she called you one she was serious.

 

[Reckoner]

A swift kick to the balls always seems to suffice.

 

[Scarpozzi]

Restraining Order FTW!!!!

 

[Childs]

Depends on the comment, and the tone. Its possible the person thinks you two have a better relationship that you think you do....if that makes sense.

 

[effowe]

People get shot for doing that sort of stuff, I however either insult back, or refrain from talking to said person.

 

[skyking]

It has taken years of trial and error, but I think of all the times I've stuck my foot in my mouth, spoke out of turn, etc. Then I temper my reply, or simply leave it alone.

He made a comment about my intelligence (or lack thereof). I didn't say much of anything in response and just walked away.

Easy way to handle it. Find something wrong with them, lay down a monster insult, then say, "I'm just kidding too."

*either really sarcastically or so flatly it must be sarcastic* Thanks. Your opinion means just SO much to me.
