(no subject)
So, this is a continuation of my note I left on facebook. Yes, this is about the SAME GUY from 2 days ago. How dramatic.
----------
For those of you who don't know me too well, probably dont know that I was picked on alot throughout elementary school. Not going into detail during that time period, but just know that it sucked. I never had the courage to just slap them and tell them to shut the fuck up. I dont regret it, it made me a stronger person; because I refuse to allow that to happen to me again. To this day, I cannot comprehend people who will deliberately go out of their way to make other people- feel like shit. not just "Max's friend", but anyone in general.
It was like my aunt always told me "theres no reason to be rude", and to be perfectly honest and "lame", there really isn't. I find myself to be a generally nice person, unless someone does something to truly offend me, like this guy- "max's friend". I mean, i dont even know his name, and I seriously doubt he knows mine. Even today, before he yelled at me, i waved to him as he was leaving. Maybe that's what I get for trying to do something nice. But in any case, I didn't do anything but ask my friend for a piece of gum, WHY do you even have to shove your (nasty) face in this situation? Why do you feel the need to go out of your personal comfort level, and attempt offending someone you do not know?
But seriously, why are people rude, ever? Why do people feel the need to put down another human being? Do they really feel that much gain off making someone else feel like shit? (do not even tell me you don't care what others think of you, because to some extent we all care). Its people like that who will really go nowhere in life, and its people like that who will end up alone; because everyone who ever cared about them, is gone- they're tired of rudeness. Hell, I would be. How much gain do you get from being alone? How much is that 3 seconds of overweighting power worth now that you've lost anyone who had any potential in being your friend? How much is it worth when you die alone? Are you going to be rude to the doctors who try to save your life when you're old and sick? As (my wise friend) Sarah Katz told me the other day, niceness is a quality that is seriously over-looked, because being nice means overlooking judgement; which is a natural human characteristics. It takes someone alot of strength to look at someone, who is rude, or someone who annoys you, or someone who makes stupid comments, or someone you truly can say you hate; and bite your tongue and be a decent human being.
I tried it with this guy... I did. When I confronted him, I didn't get up in his face; I simply asked him if we could talk (to which he replied, "No, get the fuck away from me"), and even through that I still tried to be nice by waving to him as he passed by (to which he replied by yelling some incomprehensible nonsense, accompanied with the finger. How mature)
----------
Another point, how can one person stand there, make fun of another, and laugh about it; completely knowing that it probably caused that person some sort of pain? I mean, even though this guy, who means utterly nothing to me, damn straight I was hurt. Why would some random person, who remains unnamed to me, go out of their way to make fun of me; a COMPLETE STRANGER? Who does that? No 'max's friend', it is not a joke if you're telling it to a completely random person. Your "joke" is the equivalent of walking up to a random girl on the street, and calling HER a man. Your social skills are clearly well thought-out.
Apparently knowing that I'm pissed off, and I'm clearly going to do something about it doesn't stop you? Alright, you've made your choice. Because though I AM nice, I CAN be mean, and this situation- it seems to be the only type of emotional output you comprehend. Clearly. For some reason, although you're a boy, and apparently you're a "semi pro boxer", you don't scare me in the slightest (nor your ruski friends who act cool, but dont have the balls to stand up for you, or to stand up to me). We'll see how this goes....
