Lol I used to know people who actually act like the characters and so the chaos of the show stung for a while. But in the past year I finally learned to love it because my brain can register it's just a show.

I know someone whose good at both, giving withering roasts and grey rocking. They confronted my bullies. One avoided the confrontation by hiding in another room with the door closed. The other was smarmy and denied ever doing what they did to me. My friend is pretty impenetrable when it comes to gradeschool-level bullying. This was all done when we confronted them completely peacefully. He understands the quote, "no one can make you feel inferior without your consent." I think the beginning of me understanding that quote is to learn how to speak up for myself. And that involves taking risks.
I understand there are abusers with personality disorders, but I've seen my friend shut down even those people. There are people who are simply immature abusers without personality disorders, and I mostly want to start standing up to them. Either way, when someone is incapable of taking accountability for their wrongs, I want to show they shouldn't try to step on me to begin with. People avoid mistreating my friend and I want that treatment by being just as witty as him.
I just looked up smarmy. It's a great word to define a lot of the public personas of covert abusers I've known. What a great word.
How so? Because I strongly feel that but I don't know exactly how.
Is it really? because I've felt this is a pattern but I didn't know it's true 100% of the time.
It's weird people call eating sushi for the first time and Asian women both the same thing : "exotic."
I've never listened to NPR so I had no idea why they were talking like that. My boyfriend had to tell me. It's disturbing that people unoronically listen to NPR.
I saw this video a few months ago. I loved the depth of geography amd culture it brought to me! Loads of American film makers better take notes from this.
Their advertisement looks REALLY good. I will be trying it later.
Just did one lesson of Hello Chinese and you're right, it is better. I should probably get a screen pen for the app's Chinese characters to learn writing.
What's Said's full name?
Capitalism has hijacked what the general public views as a "grown up". So i don't say grow up. People who act immature are still having a legit adulthood. It just that that's what their adulthood looks like.
My issue is not that they're not grown ups. My issue is that they're self projecting cowards who don't deal with their own bullshit insecurities. That they're downpunchers trying to make me absorb their damage.
Now I'm trying to not change minds. Skipping explaining that they're sad and should punch upwards, and simply being confronting about what they're doing. Responding coldly.
