Why do some people think being assholes is funny?

Apollo,

ignoring Unhealer is the best you can do. Feed him with your reactions and he will smell blood.. Some people are like that.. It's life. I understand your frustration about it, but there isn't much you (we) can do about it..

Thing is to not take small talk like that seriously, if you can't then I guess you better ignore him. It might be wrong to joke around like that with people you don't know but for some it's just an ice breaker.

@ hentai : no i'm not sure , i said girl cause the avatar is female and i dont verify each time if its a true girls or not

Hey Rukya, I was contacted by that girl too, I think – she said the same to me and was listed as a homo – go figure.
I challenged her behaviour and she duly apologised. But then, after a short break, went on to describe what she wanted to do to me .. . I just told her in her dreams, treated her as a joke .. her narrative would have to improve immensely as I'd get bored, and bombarded her with rules on ettiquette … she left .. lol. I have even bombarded them with  ” Bible ” type scriptures according to Brandybee in the past – Sometimes, it can be kinda fun – playing them at their own game.

Absolutely love that cartoon, Pafe – pity we couldn't  press a button and send it to the culprit with a short sweet message to go away. Humour always seems to annoy them, as ultimately, they want to shock and provoke an offended reaction. Treat them all as a joke.

As my mom used to say – ” Manners cost nothing, yet are priceless ”  mmm  think I could add that as a BBee Scripture …

Apollo – next time, count to 10 babes , take a deep breath – and say ..” Nar, but I know a girl who does … you having trouble with your chat ups ?? .. ”  The ignore button is then your choice or an entertaining convo ..

Just for fun ..
Scriptures according to Brandybee. ( No offence meant in anyway to followers of any religion whats so ever )

And God said unto the Arc Angel Gabriel, go forth and find your desciples of goodwill, travel  to the four corners of the world and spread the word according to the book of good manners & ettiquette – Go to the land, known as achat, and particularly to the ” scene”( the beach hut ) There you will find ” name” who's soul is tainted and twisted and in need of redemption. They know not what they say –  Show them forgiveness and pity –  Go to them and envelope them with your love and wisdom… And so it came to pass… “name” was indeed found .. standing alone with no friends.. The great book was opened and read aloud ..
1) ” Thou shalt not be rude to the people of achat or other lands”
2) ” Thou shalt not name call “
3) “Thou shalt be respectful at all times”
4) “Thou shalt not assume they like the same things as you do”
5) “Be POLITE”
If you do not not like these simple commandments , then be banished from our lands henceforth, otherwise a great plague will befall you – pestilence and boils will erupt on your skin, you will bleed from every known orifice known to man. Such is the strength of this curse … now go forth and contemplate your sins… and remember … Its nice to be nice …

I think you get the idea of the bombardment … they usually leave .. thinking i'm a nutter… and who the hell have they contacted… hehe
100% success rate so far … Please feel free to try and add your own commandments …

I will say that my interactions with Unhealer were few, and far between, and during his unfortunately rare moments where he didn't seem to be embracing the obnoxiousness that everyone here seems willing to admit were his rather his trademark.

To perhaps expand on Tight's comment I would say that people who act like that are acting like that to get a response out of you, and giving them one encourages their behavior. They know they are being obnoxious, and like Apollo titled this thread… they think it is funny. So if any response will encourage their behavior then no response is the only way to derail them.

There are some who suffer the plaue of smallcox and as such the plague beseeches them to do unspeakable things in manner of speech and to small animals.

Sufferance hence delivered unto thee by thy staff and thy rod give the plagued pleasure to remit them brief pardon from their curse. Divinity, not virginity makes them repent for their sins…

But in the mean time, I will have a donut (with creame filling) and look no further than the bottom of my coffee cup as it equals the size of their gene pool.

Mwah!
