One thing I can't stand is people who are highly offended by the words of others but can't see any wrong in their own words. My "friend" Marc is one of those people. He got upset and hung up the phone on me because I was offended by something he said. Anytime I complain about something he says or does he gets all defensive and says, "What am I supposed to do..." He puts me in the position of the bad guy and acts as if there is nothing wrong with what he did. Then he runs to mommy and tells her how mean I was to him. The next time she sees me she pulls me aside and bitches me out for my behavior. The ridiculous thing is she bitches me out for something that didn't even happen. Marc claims to have a great memory, but he can't get his story straight when he is crying to mommy. He also runs and tells all his friends what an obnoxious asshole I am. Never mind the part about what caused me to be an obnoxious asshole.

I don't deny that I can be annoying and obnoxious. However, I'm not usually an obnoxious asshole unless somebody provokes me. Marc should have known that his comment would bother me. I have fussed at him before about that. All my friends know what bothers me. I'm not one of those people who lets things silently build up inside. I let people know when they hurt my feelings. I also understand that people can't always keep from offending others. And that's not my point. My point is simple...

You shouldn't throw rocks at people if you can't handle rocks being thrown at you.

It just pisses me off. He talks about how people used to pick on him when he was younger. He talks about how much it hurt him. Then he makes fun of other people who are just as different as he is. And he doesn't see anything wrong with this.

Some people just can't see their own face in the mirror.
