knowing how to stick it where it hurts

Lately (well, I'm always like this) I've been really dishing it out to people who have said something strange to me. I'm not very accepting of people who think they are better than me because everybody puts their pants on the same way.

Anyways, a few people have said some things to me lately and for some reason I've been really jabbing back. Like for some reason I've just had zero tolerance to any crap people give me and can find their weakness in a heartbeat and exploit it.

I feel like an ***. Even though that's how I've always kind of been. but it's just been worse lately I guess. Maybe it's because I'm practically unmedicated. I don't know. Does anyone else get like this?

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

I don't always act on it but I do have a knack for zeroing in on people's Achilles heel's. I usually keep it to myself but if provoked I can use this power for bad. LOL

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

I have a tendency to do that when I'm over emotional (coz we all know that *never* happens, lol)... I am a pretty decent people-reader, especially if it's family, and have always had a knack for saying the most hurtful thing at the most hurtful time. It's a skill I have worked hard to both hone and control. If I remember correctly, I think I began being a little b*tch at the ripe old age of 7.

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

I can be like that some times. I always appear emotionless (which makes whatever I say seem that much worse bc it seems so robotic) so I have made both grown men and women cry before. I did not seek to make those people cry but I can be very hurtful if I chose to be and those individuals were just raging idiots.

I did feel bad but then again I only said things that were true (but in a hurtful manner)

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

I can also be like this if someone really p*sses me off and I have no problem with upsetting people or making them cry at those times but I am mindful not to dish sh*t out to people who don't actually deserve it and if I do then I will feel bad.

I generally like dishing sh*t out to people who make fun of people with disabilities because I hate that sh*t and they deserve sh*t to be heaped back onto them.

As for those who think their sh*t doesn't stink, their farts give them away and I generally don't pay any homage to them as they aren't even worth my time, effort, energy or attention

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

i only pull this card when somebody has either already hurt me enough or they have played their card (yet i know something more painful about them). havnt had to do it in a while, or allowed to primarily because especially when a girl tries to hurt me, i cant say much back (although anything about weight or appearance breaks them faster than anything on a guy) because girls talk to all girls, and i dont want my social status ******. so i just call them iceheads

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

I am pretty even tempered most of the time ...( I think ) .....but occasionally I have been known to hit below the belt, when pushed to the wall.....


my last words to my ex were" ....You're a little, little man ...." ok, so I am also subtle .....but I think those were pretty hurtful words....

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

For me its a strange thing. I can sometimes read every little detail of a persons character and I feel that within me is the power to go out and destroy someone completely using that knowledge.
But I have never yet used that power and hope that I will never have to either, I just know its there.

I think INFP healing can become the very perversion of itself given the wrong kind of situation.

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

I've always been described as "quick witted", I'm that girl that never has to think of a comeback to a remark. I open my mouth and it is there. I sometimes have to make a real effort not to verbally decimate someone who is being an idiot. Being subtle is a good skill to have when you are like us.

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

Yeah I'm not gonna lie, I'm a total b**** sometimes. I'm pretty perceptive when it comes to people, and when I'm upset I lose any fear about stating the truth. This is a lethal combination.
I'm nicer and more rational when I'm calm and happy, but I can get moody and then all bets are off. I'm trying to learn to just walk away from an argument when I get angry, before I do any serious damage.

I know what you mean. It's almost like an X-ray vision, you can pick up on what their vulnerabilities are, what they secretly pride themselves on so that you could deflate them with one sly, well-aimed prick of a needle if you chose, or what they would most hate to be criticized about....it would be a dangerous power in the hands of a cruel person, but I've never really wanted to use it.

Re: knowing how to stick it where it hurts

I thought it was a sick gift I had. I've never met anyone who can read/manipulate someone the way I can. Except most of you seem to know how to do it.

I have this uncanny ability of meeting someone and within minutes I possess the quality to make them end their own life. It's like XRay vision. Not only that, but I also have the ability to manipulate them to act/say/doing anything I want. I know what to say or do to them to get the response or action I want.
It's like a finely tuned dance.

I have to **really** watch myself because I'll just do it and not even realize I totally just manipulated a situation into going the way I want it too.

It's like I can find their vulnerabilities, as well as, their sweet spot.

I think it's this reason alone I avoid people at all costs. Even my fiance at times. It's like I can read their minds and tap into their most personal emotions.
I can't handle MY emotions. MY behaviors. I need people to go away and make their own lives happen, etc.

I hope this doesn't sound as sick as it sounds to me.


Oh well. It is what it is.
