Apparently I find it rather hard to deal with a person when I think they are stupid. As a sarcastic person I am not good at holding my tongue when I feel a person deserves a certain quip. Sometimes that habit may call for laughs. Other times it is completely inappropriate. Since I don't seem to have a way to withhold my reactions I am the perfect person to bully.
Bullies are always looking for a reaction. I must response to inflammatory comments. These things do not go together. It only makes for a loud argument. I know that I need to chill out sometimes. I get into a lot of fights because I don't take lightly to being mistreated. There may have been a time when I just rolled over. I wasn't always up for confrontation. I still am a chicken according to some people. Now, though, I am less passive and more aggressive.
The desire to say things back affects me in several different parts of my life. Sometimes I feel like there should be an aptitude test for people to talk to me. Which is a very rude thing to say, I am aware. When I was younger I remember that one of the things that I looked for in a man was that he needed to at least be as smart as me. Though I preferred that he be smarter. I just find it hard to have an intelligent conversation with someone.... I sound like a douche. Moving on.
I've said so in the past that situations become more dicey when people say stupid things to me. I don't handle it well. Arguments need to be logical or I just get angry. I need to reign it in because it isn't a professional way to handle things.
