You ask a lot of provocative questions. You shouldn't be surprised if you provoke people. Isn't that really your intent?

I am Mr. Rude. Go suck donkey nuts! HAHAHAHAA\n\nI'm just kidding. Anyways, some people are rude just to be funny. Sometimes its funny, but when you're looking for an accurate answer, you're gonna hate the guy.

Being rude and disrespectful to ANYONE takes away time that would be better spent doing other things. HATE is a very strong word and I have avoided it my whole life. Why not try to look inside yourself and see what makes you hate someone. Then try to resolve that hate. Do you feel the person is rude and disrespectful to YOU? Do you feel the person doesn't treat you right? DON'T put up with that from anyone. Speak on it and resolve it. If the person still won't act right, just avoid and ignore them.-- Don't let anyone bite your joy. Kind of hard to avoid and ignore someone who has authority over you so I would suggest you work on a resolution or else get ready to vacate....\ngood luck

well, if your experiece is that people won't even take the time to get to know you then it's natural for you to want to be rude to them. those jerks... they left you all alone!! so yes, i would say it's human nature... therefore normal for you to be rude and untalkitive.

Yes, people can be rude asses, but the trick is to act like you are just thrilled to answer to their every whim.  Before long you will actually enjoy knowing what they need before they need it and most people will tip well for that.  They really just want a friendly/efficient person to make their day a little better.  Just look back on how you like to be treated when out to eat and follow that.

I'm not mean to you. I see a lot of people on this site have been very mean. They are just ignorant and immature people if they have to be mean to someone, especially over the internet. Some people don't care if they hurt other people's feelings or not. I can see from some of your other questions that you are feeling sad and depressed and I know the last thing you need is for some idiots to add fuel to the fire. I hope things really get better for you soon.

Well, we can't understand what you are talking about . . . it you keep deleting your question . . . because you don't like how the other people are answering.\n\nMe, at times, I can be rude . . . especially . . . when other people give people wrong advice and it is the only way I could get their attention.  Sometimes I can be rude . . . because I am an a*hole too . . . \n\nAnd I am serious too.

It is always easy to throw darts at the party in control. What you are basically saying is that anyone that does not agree with you are rude.  So it very well could be why I find your question rude.

I think a rude answer, but why waste your energy trying to get back at someone?  Just ignore them and let it go, then you are the better person.

Maybe pressure from other people to abide by social norms. So many times when someone does something rude or offensive, people just let it slide. No one confronts them about it. Maybe if everytime someone did something rude they got called on it, they'd think twice and be more respectful next time.

You weren't socially acceptable because you went against the crowd. Though you were really doing the right thing, they are buttheads and have excluded you from the clique. Be to the point about it and ask them why they are being hypocrits... if they are rude find a new circle...

That's a good question.\nMy guess is that the rude people are the ones who have way to much time on their hands and like to take it out on others. I enjoy answering questions and find that a lot of the really good answers are very helpful but then it seems that there is always a rude person who has to spoil it for everyone and give some really mean and spiteful answer just to ruin it for others.\nI wish those rude people wouldn't answer any questions at all if they don't enjoy either asking good questions or answering them. Rudeness is a sign of really bad manners and poor up-bringing too.\nMy answer may not sit well with some but I tell it like it is.

Rudeness sometimes is born from feelings of powerlessness and inadequacy.  Experiencing and displaying anger gets you closer to feeling in control.  People who are rude are usually hurting from something.  Many people are rude to others because they hate themselves.  They're convinced that everyone will see their flaws and reject them.  Quite often they treat strangers badly to punish them in advance of the inevitable rejection.  Very sad when you really think about it...

Yes, I am sure most people have experienced a rude person before, but someone at work should have a bit more self control. After all, they are going to see you again tomorrow aren't they?\n\nRude remarks like this are unwelcome to everyone, even those who think they are "tougher" or "quicker to respond" than everyone else. If it hurts you or insults you, then the last thing that you want to do is join in to the silliness. You are too smart and too classy to start acting rude just to "get even".\n\nBesides, when you act classier than everyone else, they hold you in higher regard. That high level of admiration will leave them down below in the dust, when you get promoted or receive a bonus for your positive attitude and professionalism.\n\nPlease don't stoop to their low level of trash talk, you have a future in front of you that requires your integrity and credibility to shine!
