I’ve lost something
So let’s say you get a number of text messages from several of your friends, each one basically ridiculing you for various reasons. Likely in jest, but malicious intent is also there to a certain degree. What do you do?
In my case, I’m still wondering what to do. For some reason, those recent barbs have got under my skin more than usual, whereas I’d normally shrug them off or fire back with equal venom. But that hasn’t happened. I seem to have lost my sense of humour and tolerance.
Perhaps it was just a matter of circumstances, where my peace and quiet was suddenly disturbed by said annoyances. Unprovoked, to boot. You end up wondering what you’ve done to deserve such insults, and after giving it some thought, you conclude that those people are just being idiotic and petty.
So what to do with the idiotic and petty? Ignore them like the useless peons they are until they learn how to behave in a civil manner, i.e. don’t slag me off if I don’t slag you off. Am I being a wuss? I don’t care - I’m ignoring you.
