I’m honestly so angry that I’ve felt off all day.
Just kidding, but I really needed to get this off my chest.

You’d think that when people start a new thread, they might actually put some effort into a meaningful opening post—you know, outlining the situation or the problem with a bit of actual reasoning, then asking for advice or opinions. Or, if the topic starts as a massive, sweeping question—like, "In what situations are people mean?"—they could at least give a hint as to which direction they want the conversation to go. But clearly, that’s asking too much in this case.☕
Anyway, before I drift too far into a total tangent: I can be pretty petty myself sometimes—like, those moments where I’ll intentionally clog the toilet for my roommate and then just head out for the rest of the day, leaving them to deal with the mess... 😈

I honestly think people just turn toxic the second they feel threatened...
like... if someone even looks like they might be a problem, they strike first... sort of a preemptive strike thing
and then there's the whole insecurity issue, where they're so convinced everyone is out to get them that they just lash out first to avoid getting hurt themselves
plus, when you dare to tell someone the truth they don't want to hear... they come at you like you're trying to take their life or something....😕
but I still believe any kind of malice can be stopped..... you just have to be smart about it, maybe even a little sharp around the edges sometimes....☕
because in my book, bad people actually need kindness to realize that being a jerk isn't worth it, so... if someone throws a stone at you, throw back some bread ( though... sometimes that bread is just as hard as the rock....😉 )

It could be something like that—or maybe they’re just making faces because they’re bored... there are all sorts of reasons, really. Personally, I think I have a pretty good handle on things here😁

basically means they're insecure
they'll do anything just to get some attention

I have no desire to seek out the spotlight for myself, yet I find a certain quiet satisfaction in observing the struggles of others from the periphery...☕

maybe it's just because you're miserable yourself, so seeing other people fail gives you a little kick? 🤷
sorry if I'm wrong....

You live just to watch them fall... I know that feeling all too well.

Look, I don't quite know what to make of it all—but I do know you aren't coming from a bad place.

Sometimes, when I see an elderly lady stepping into a crosswalk, a dark thought crosses my mind—I find myself hoping a car doesn't hit her, yet simultaneously thinking how incredible it would be if I could capture the moment on my phone. It would make me the
leader of the pack😁. Perhaps I am just talking nonsense, or perhaps I am being sincere... please, don't pay too much attention to me. My internet connection just cut out, so I am feeling quite on edge🙄. People are starting to get banned even in psychology classes now. Honestly, you'd think a psychology department would actually use a psychological approach to things, for heaven's sake

To truly inflict harm on someone, you have to understand them first—deeply. 😍 You need to pinpoint exactly what they value most, then figure out how to strip it away, dismantle it, and maximize the agony. If I’m suffering, everyone else is going to suffer too—especially those who cause me three times the pain I feel. So, quite frankly, I find a certain enjoyment in being malicious.

For instance, I have someone who has been telling me for quite some time that I am worse than dead weight—constantly belittling me, undermining my worth, and trampling all over my dignity. Does this individual truly believe I won't retaliate? Well, I already have an excellent plan in motion. This piece of trash will suffer; I'm about to flip their entire world upside down.

Why does he think I’d take my own life over him? First, I'm going to dismantle him—then, and only then, will I end things. And honestly, it isn't because he holds any weight in my life; it's just that life itself is a total wreck.
I really have no idea where my damn wits went.

Both grammatical and logical slips here... they point toward a specific intent.
"Life is worth nothing, but nothing is worth a life" - Andre Malraux
"Living isn't anything new, but dying isn't any newer either" - Mayakovsky
So, Zachary Patel6, life is one massive odyssey. Don't let the valleys of tears get you down; for every low, there is an equal high. Be grateful that you can still feel things at all.
You only have this moment, and this is it. Who knows? Maybe tomorrow someone will be waiting for Ty, and Ty might just let them down. As for those cowards, their punishment is a certainty—don't give them a second thought, it'll all work itself out in time.

It seems to me that people act out of malice simply because they lack a fundamental sense of empathy for those around them. 😍

glad we're on the same page...🙂

Why do people act so cruelly toward one another? It usually boils down to jealousy, a thirst for revenge, or just plain old petty motives. If you want to dive deep, check out my other thread
