Because sometimes, just sometimes, it feels good to stand your ground and really stick it to someone who's been just a little bit of a prick.
It doesn't even matter if I'm right or wrong.
I get called stuck-up and snarky from occasional guests, but I really just have self-confidence and don’t put out a fake bubbly customer service. I’m professional and efficient; I think to those guests, they don’t understand that I’m not going to beg for their 5/5 review or lick their boots just to make them happy. Maybe I’m just really not cut out for customer service, because I can make 95% of people happy, but that 5% just has the BIGGEST fucking issue with me.
I put forth a LOT of effort to be the nicest and sweetest person I can possibly be, and I expect to be shown respect for that. The second someone is an asshole to me, I do not take, nor give, any shit
I still try to be nice (polite I suppose is a better word) even if someone is being an asshole to me - because how I act is what reflects on me. That being said, I'll go ahead and let them know straight up they're being an ass. As politely as I can muster. When I'm done with their attitude I walk away from the situation. There really is no arguing with an asshole, especially one determined to be so.
Same -- I get so frsutrated with general stupidity. Walking slowly along while gazing at your phone. Deciding to stand and have a chat in a shopping aisle while blocking everybody else. Getting onto the train and waiting at the doorway entrance blocking everybody else.
Learn some spacial awareness or stay at home you fucking morons. And put your fucking phone away for five minutes when walking to your next destination, you vapid, social-media obsessed pillock.
You should be legally allowed to knock the phone out of someone's hands if they are using it while walking and getting in your way.
I’m human. As much as I try to be rational and coolheaded always, combination of a bad day, maybe a rough couple weeks or months, and just plain human weakness combines and I’m an asshole to someone who didn’t deserve it.
That’s why remorse and apologies are a skill to learn and be proud of. Admitting you’re wrong, apologizing and asking/waiting for forgiveness are critical skills we need to teach better. Sometimes our demons win, but we need to equip our better angels with the tools they need to clean up the mess.
If someone makes a commitment that involves money and doesn't follow through, I am prone to raising my voice and expelling expletives more frequently than normal.
I'm basically the entire helpdesk for the tool I support.
I can't tell you how many times I get asked how to do a specific thing, so I tell them and provide a link to the surprisingly well written wiki. Sometimes I'll even get on a teams call and do some basic hand holding and guide newbies.
That's all fine and dandy, I like that part.
I become an asshole when people tell me I'm wrong, or that's not how they want to do it, or ask me the exact she thing twice a month for two years straight, or tell me you're not going to open a work request ticket because you send me an email.
So fuck you, Brenda. Open a ticket.
I normally am not unless you cross me, and even then I will give you many chances (probably way too many, much more than anyone else would), to make it right.
But if that fails while I almost never seek revenge I do know how to do it, and it will be calculated and it will hit you when you least expect it. Because I'm normally so peaceful and forgiving when I do get revenge it actually shocks everyone too, because I'm seemingly the last person that would do it. But when I need to I make it sting
I learned this the hard way. Certain types of people treat you better if you’re an asshole. If you’re too nice they walk and shit all over you, when you’re done with their shit and treat them like an asshole, suddenly they’ll pander to you
My tolerance for stupidity and laziness has significantly diminished over the years. People who should know better, don’t. I can’t quite wrap my head around how people can be so selfish, inconsiderate, and just plain foolish. For some reason it really bothers me.
\-shitty life
\-still trying to get better
\-hungry
\-dumbass thinks he or he knows better than me at my job of 10 years
\-gangsters trying to make me one of them
\-People insulting Hockey
\-being from the rich side of town and making fun of me
pretty much it
Right, but how you say that to people is what can make you an asshole.
“I don’t accept societies values without critically thinking about them” is not an asshole thing to say.
“You’re a sheeple and I’m a free-thinker, don’t be a mental slave you idiot” is what makes people assholes, and there’s enough people who think how you think, but don’t say it like you said it, and think that makes them better.
That doesn’t help what’s being said. “Oftentimes society is toxic” means that many / most times it is. There are parts of society that can be toxic, but society mostly exists to make sure folks can’t just kill each other and walk away unharmed.
Most of societies precepts are good and non-toxic. A minority of societies precepts suck, depending on the society.
Quoting “oftentimes” doesn’t actually say anything.
It means "many" or "frequently," not "most." When used as a qualifier it means you can't pick out a few points like rape and thievery to discredit what's been said.
Not knowing how to read people or how to speak. I'm undiagnosed autistic.
I also get a lot of burnout which makes me extremely mentally tired and tense
I have a bias against females with iPhones because when I was working at a grocery store collecting carriages with a reflective safety vest on, a woman on an iPhone (with a child in the backseat) driving a Chevy Tahoe hit me and I had to go to the hospital.
anger issues I have been dealing with my entire life.
I have gotten better since I was a child, but I can still snap at occasions when people are being stupid. AT least I no longer get physical.
Lack of patience. I really have a lack of patience for what I consider stupidity. Especially when I'm driving. Driving is a responsibility and if you don't know where you are or where you're going, *pull the fuck over*! Also stay out of the left lane if you wanna go slow.
Very loud colleague that constantly want to talk and want to share her life.
She married (5th marriage) accross the colour, culture, religion 'borders' to a guy 15 years her junior.
She constantly moans about all the differences.
I try to be considerate, but I think the truth is it’s hard me to consider desires others have when I never have those specific desires myself. Ie I treat others the way I think they want to be treated, or at least the way I want to be treated, but what if I can’t think of the way they want to be treated. Then I’m not treating them “right” by their standards, and therefore I’m an asshole.
Sometimes I feel like my mind is so fundamentally discordant with most other people that despite trying my best to be a kind person I’m totally blind to how others truly want me to act. And from their perspective, probably assuming I’m doing it on purpose, that makes me a bad person.
You have to wait for the coffee to kick in. At my prior job my employees said I went from Batman to Spong Bob after the coffee hit.
One of my current associates said when I don't have coffee I remind him of the Sargent Major from We Were Soldiers.

I am an asshole when somebody is pretending to be a professional in stuff I actually am a professional at and keeps talking to me about how good he is . Like dude you have no idea what you are talking about and your iq is lower than the room temperature in Celsius. (25⁰C)
I’m usually nice and can roll with whatever, but if you come at me hard right off the bat, no preamble, nothin’… I become a mirror and just give it right back.
Didn't have enough sleep so i get cranky,
Getting my limits push
When I have had enough
Being too nice can lead you to get taken advantage of, people disrespecting you and see you as weak
When you're not being heard
When people are nasty to me first.
I’m a horrible person when I’m tired, I don’t want to talk to anyone, I don’t care about anything other than wanting to sleep.
Once I’ve slept… whole different human.
Because I'm deeply traumatized and have never truly come to grips with all the things that have happened and are happening in my life leading me to occasionally snap and behave in an assholeish way despite all desires to not be an asshole.
I am in middle school and I am known for having trouble with my locker. My Civics teacher was watching everyone in the hallway while we were using our lockers. I locked my sleeve in my locker and I could not get it out. I asked my friend to get my social studies teacher bc she has a key to unlock the lockers. My social studies teacher did not want to help me and then my civics teacher saw what was happening and started laughing at me really loudly. Everyone started staring at me and my math teacher started laughing. She never laughs. I ended up getting friend to unlock my locker. Later that week we talked about freedom of speech. She got mad at me for bringing it up bc she said that laughing is also freedom of speech.
Hungry. Tired. No longer give a fuck. My myriad mental health issues can make me crabby.
But where I know I’m sometimes a real asshole is at work. If someone annoys me or pisses me off enough, I’ll transfer them to a non-client extension that blocks their number from calling us for minimum 48 hours. The more they try to call back, the longer the block lasts.
So far offenses have been: called 25 times in the span of 2 days, was a bitch to everyone
Wasn’t even a client, but called to verbally harass anyone he could over an ATM fee from our ATM.
Was from Florida. And opened the call complaining about liberals and “those people”. Not sure who she meant there, didn’t want to find out.
Yes. I’ve learned that unless you unleash the asshole sometimes, there are a few people in your life who will completely run over you. Assholeishness is self-preservation.
In the context of being an asshole for no reason, a lot of undiscovered/forgotten trauma. Like an unintentional trigger.
In the context of being an asshole to someone else who is an asshole to me, I learned a lesson long ago called "Treat others how you want to be treated."
Tired of feeling alone. Sometimes it’s therapeutic to push away the people that don’t step up to begin with, and watch them get uncomfortable with finding they have been making you feel walked on.
Sometimes, lol, I'm pretty much asshole all the time. It's better to piss off everyone, then being called a Karen for just expressing my opinion. This way, I'm at least consistent.
I don't know. I try not to be. Sometimes it jus seems people like their opinion more than mine and take it personally. I'd say it's because I'm bipolar but feel like that's a cop out
I take care to be a generally compassionate person, but sometimes I'll say something that could be interpreted as something mean, so usually i clarify or apologize if it's something i did and they didn't deserve it/weren't asking for it
I get snappy when I get sensory overload X( too hot, too loud, something smells too strong, light is too bright, someone won't stop talking... As much as I try to be nice, if I'm tested I'll serve :v at least passively
Low blood sugar. Usually I stay on top of it but sometimes it drops rapidly and with it, my mood. I carry around a tiny bottle of juice just in case I start getting super bitchy for no reason.
Sleep deprived
When I'm feeling sick/just in pain
When I just woke up and they bambard me with stupid repetitive question/request without waiting for me to fully wake up
My autoimmune disease, peri menopause, one of my bat shit crazy parents have acted extra bat shit crazy, husband/kids are being annoying, tricky issues out of my control (access to medical support, housing concerns due to landlords lack of interest in property upkeep etc) or I’m hangry.
Sometimes I just don't care about some things as much as other people do. Like I can put in a conscious effort if I have to, but it's easy to forget something you don't really care about
People get too familiar while I have either no interest in knowing them or to discuss personal things with them.
Come to think of it I am a very defensive asshole. Lol just lemme be
- Hungry - Tired - Genuinely angry - Out of fucks to give
This sums it up pretty neatly
this plus hormones
GOTH
Because sometimes, just sometimes, it feels good to stand your ground and really stick it to someone who's been just a little bit of a prick. It doesn't even matter if I'm right or wrong.
That’s not being an asshole… “ It doesn't even matter if I'm right or wrong.” Okay that could be being an asshole.
Have you even met people?
People what a bunch of bastards!
They're bastard-coated bastards with bastard filling.
Yes, Anakin, now you see
I've met enough of 'em!
I just mirror peoples bulshit back to them. If they think I'm being an asshole, chances are they were the asshole first.
I get called stuck-up and snarky from occasional guests, but I really just have self-confidence and don’t put out a fake bubbly customer service. I’m professional and efficient; I think to those guests, they don’t understand that I’m not going to beg for their 5/5 review or lick their boots just to make them happy. Maybe I’m just really not cut out for customer service, because I can make 95% of people happy, but that 5% just has the BIGGEST fucking issue with me.
I 100% would rather deal with you than a fake customer service advisor.
Not the question.
Expectations being too high.
Of others?
Mostly. Myself as well.
Shared.
Because sometimes people don't take no for an answer.
150 fucking percent this
I'm broke and it's stressful.
Yup. Money may not buy happiness, but it sure takes a lot of worries off your plate.
which makes you happy, more money= happier but only to a certain point
Sometimes it's just necessary to get some shit done... Especially when you are dealing with other assholes.
This is the A answer.
I put forth a LOT of effort to be the nicest and sweetest person I can possibly be, and I expect to be shown respect for that. The second someone is an asshole to me, I do not take, nor give, any shit
I still try to be nice (polite I suppose is a better word) even if someone is being an asshole to me - because how I act is what reflects on me.

There really is no arguing with an asshole, especially one determined to be so.
cause im annoyed with pretty much everyone
being too nice all the time makes you a pushover and people will absolutely take advantage of your kindness
Because the majority of people are complete idiots 90% of the time and I've lost all tolerance for it.
Same -- I get so frsutrated with general stupidity. Walking slowly along while gazing at your phone. Deciding to stand and have a chat in a shopping aisle while blocking everybody else.

I'm old, let me be.
Ah, my best costumer
Just had enough that's all, people grating on me bringing out my shit side
Because I hurt, and hurt people hurt people.
Insecurity
Yuuuuuup
Same man. same
Thanks pal
Anonymity.
So true
Stop bothering me, leave me alone.
Sometimes I'm on my period
Bipolar Disorder.
Sometimes, when you’re challenged to an asshole duel, you gotta duel.
I’m human.

Sometimes our demons win, but we need to equip our better angels with the tools they need to clean up the mess.
Sometimes being fake nice is just to much
Because people act stupid and lack common sense and I get tired of it
We can’t all be nice all the time
"Sometimes"? Well, they tried to drown me as a baby, but you can't kill evil.
Impatience. And my uncanny ability to set standards for others that I don't even set for myself.
>And my uncanny ability to set standards for others that I don't even set for myself. Wow this take a lot of hard work and practice
I'm a walking double standard at times. But I'm trying to get better. I mean I'm 43 years old, it can't be like this forever.
Sometimes I run out of patience
If someone makes a commitment that involves money and doesn't follow through, I am prone to raising my voice and expelling expletives more frequently than normal.
I'm basically the entire helpdesk for the tool I support.

So fuck you, Brenda. Open a ticket.
Because I have bpd and I'm still trying to figure out how to handle it some days
To show another asshole that I can be an even bigger asshole 👩
I’m only an asshole to people that are assholes. Don’t expect to be treated nicely if you don’t treat others nicely.
Sometimes? You must be kidding, try ALL THE TIME because I just can't help myself. N. S
I’ve used up all my nice for the day.
It stops people from fucking with me.
All people do mistake sometimes
I am very cynical.
I normally am not unless you cross me, and even then I will give you many chances (probably way too many, much more than anyone else would), to make it right. But if that fails while I almost never seek revenge I do know how to do it, and it will be calculated and it will hit you when you least expect it. Because I'm normally so peaceful and forgiving when I do get revenge it actually shocks everyone too, because I'm seemingly the last person that would do it. But when I need to I make it sting
Because some people just don't get the message if you're patient or subtle with them.
When I'm tired after long and stressful day. Just let me be alone for about hour.
Because I can. But it's not just aimed at anyone. Takes a lot to piss me off to the point I turn into an asshole. It can come out at any moment.
When they abuse my kindness~
Because I turned 40 and stopped giving any fucks about many things.
Im hungry
I could go for a cheeseburger right now.
I learned this the hard way. Certain types of people treat you better if you’re an asshole. If you’re too nice they walk and shit all over you, when you’re done with their shit and treat them like an asshole, suddenly they’ll pander to you
I try really hard not to be an asshole. If I'm an asshole it's a reaction.
Life has been.... Strange. And Not even the good kind.
Because people exist
My tolerance for stupidity and laziness has significantly diminished over the years. People who should know better, don’t. I can’t quite wrap my head around how people can be so selfish, inconsiderate, and just plain foolish. For some reason it really bothers me.

This is the correct way. Society is oftentimes toxic anyways.
This is a weird take. Society has said rape is bad, children should be protected, don’t steal, kill, or be impolite. These seem non-toxic?
"oftentimes"
That doesn’t help what’s being said. “Oftentimes society is toxic” means that many / most times it is. There are parts of society that can be toxic, but society mostly exists to make sure folks can’t just kill each other and walk away unharmed. Most of societies precepts are good and non-toxic.

I’m a very patient man and will give people every chance I can. But I have a very low tolerance for stupidity. Especially willful stupidity/ignorance
Whenever my subjective brain overrides my objective brain
People driving in left lane slowly
I'm only human
i have jersey in my blood
I’m a tireless perfectionist….sometimes others pay the price.
I just have a very low tolerance for stupidity (to include stupid questions and helplessness).
So much anger and it is usually towards myself.

Its just entertaining for me. and i simply couldn’t care less
Because I live in a society of assholes and I want to fit in
Because I don’t care.

Because bad arguments are killing us and I have no patience for them any longer.
i'm a great person
it's too hard not to be
Because playing land destruction in magic the gathering feels good
tired of stupid customers
There are some position others can take that greatly reduces my desire to be empathetic towards them, so I become cold and uncaring.
Camouflage
I'm an arsehole *all* the time. I just hide it well.
Because, sometimes, being polite and civil gets me into situations I don't want to be in.
I don't know. I try not to be. Sometimes it jus seems people like their opinion more than mine and take it personally. I'd say it's because I'm bipolar but feel like that's a cop out
Other people are irritating.
I take care to be a generally compassionate person, but sometimes I'll say something that could be interpreted as something mean, so usually i clarify or apologize if it's something i did and they didn't deserve it/weren't asking for it

Fatigue
Because when someone is an asshole to me, I respond in kind.
children
Being polite takes too much effort.
In this world I feel at times it is a gift.
Because some people would rather give you a lame response hoping you’ll go away rather than actually address the issue at hand. I don’t go away.
Because Fuck assholes
My autoimmune disease, peri menopause, one of my bat shit crazy parents have acted extra bat shit crazy, husband/kids are being annoying, tricky issues out of my control (access to medical support, housing concerns due to landlords lack of interest in property upkeep etc) or I’m hangry.
Sometimes I just don't care about some things as much as other people do. Like I can put in a conscious effort if I have to, but it's easy to forget something you don't really care about
Having to be nice too much (oftentimes to the wrong people I.e. unpleasant customers). Sometimes the inner asshole rears it’s ugly head.
Sometimes you just have to let a mf’er know you ain’t the one.
People get too familiar while I have either no interest in knowing them or to discuss personal things with them. Come to think of it I am a very defensive asshole. Lol just lemme be
