Are you thick skinned?

theres just something natural to a good fight
haha

 

yeah. i'd be tempted to beat the ass of someone who mocked something so serious and personal.

 

Really? Because I don't and never will... To each their own...

See, I guess I just don't understand that. Words are words, words are people's opinions, they have no bearings on me... Words are just plainly verbal diarrhea...
I guess I just don't feel that words or statements should errupt into violence because I feel that is lowering yourself way below the level of the person who is saying the statement that has caused the violence...

 

theres a line i draw...its a personal line.

someone saying "you're a fucking faggot" won't do much to get me to hit them

someone saying "i'm gonna rape your sister, you piece of shit" and you damn well better believe that persons head will be smashed into the wall.

and before anyone asks, i have had someone say that to me about my sister and yes i did beat the shit out of them.

 

I know people are different, I'm not stating what works for me works for other people... And in no way am I stating that you or anyone else is wrong, this is just me personally, ya' know. People are different, people react differently.
I just grew up with a lot of violence around me so I am pretty sickened by it.
But that is just me, I was just stating my views on it. I like to hear people's thoughts on different things...It's interesting to me...

 

I'm not so much thick skinned as I am flexible.

There are certain times when nothing bothers me. I laugh everything off.

Most times, I get hurt, then adapt.

 

I have learned to be thick skinned. I am pretty good at it now.

I think it depends on someones intent when they are doing it. Well in real life anyway.

If I know they are just joking that is one thing. If the intent is to hurt me, well that is another matter.

Online I really don't let it get to me.

What I really hate is people who can dish it out but not take it. If people are going to make a joke or jab at me they best expect it coming back at them.

 

It used to bug me but now i just ignore it, especially since whoever said it either knows i can hear them and are trying to make me sad/angry or are just plain stupid. If they're stupid, well not much to be said there, and if theyre trying to make me angry then i just leave it. Simple - I win.

No one says it to their face anymore nowadays... Its all backhanded compliments, snide comments and a helluva lot of bitchin'!

And about the violence, I have a friend [sally] who will most of the time when she gets annoyed switch to violence, me - i would never do that. For a start im weak but i don't like it anyway. Well, one art lesson we were talking and Lucy said to me she is waayy more scared of an angry me than she is an angry sally. She's even tried strangle Lucy!

And its all because when i get angry, i get bitchy...

 

My husband's friends pick on me all the time, I just dish it right back, which is probably why they do it. My family is like that too, we are a bit strange though, can't get through a meal without a bit of toilet humor...

If someone actually means it, I just don't bother with that person. They can lick my bum.

 

no

:leaving:

 

my brother would've ripped his head off if anyone ever said that. No joke, and I probably would've appreciated it.

I think stupid fights over nothing is immature and disgusting. But I feel like it's different when you cross the line with family and shit.

and no, I am pretty sensitive. I will cry. But i can take A LOT...I just cry, while handling it.

 

There is only one thing someone can say that will hurt me. Other than that have at it. I usually just laugh at the things people say about/to me.

 

exactly. that was clearly a line that person crossed.

take shots at me all you want. don't low blow me with shots at my sister

 

Let's all guess. Here's mine: "You look like you listen to Panic! at the Disco."

 

Haha no. That is funny though.

 

is it doo doo face?

 

Yeah I was tormented as a kid for being so skinny and lanky...I don't get bothered much anymore

 

How did you know?

 

it's probably because your face looks like a poop.

 

:lol:
