    Today we’ll go over how to handle it when someone insults you.
    We’ll start with a few comebacks that are great at winning over a crowd and embarrassing the person who insulted you. The downside is they can make the target of your comeback hate you.
    Then we’ll cover some friendlier, more charismatic responses so you come away looking cool and confident without making enemies.

    Learning to be teased and to tease without descending into bullying is one of the most subtly vital human interplays. It is what allows us to show both vulnerability and strength while preventing us from clubbing each other to death.

      Here's a tip Dr. Spicy:
      when you get a customer who refuses to get off their phone, to even acknowledge you as an equal human being, remain calm but LOUD. Really loud. So loud that they have difficulty hearing what is on their phone over you. Stay in clerk character but a passive aggressive nuisance to their personal call. They may not care, they may hate it, but they can never prove you did it on purpose, even if you both know it was a shot across the bow.
      They just have to take it. Payback.

    I am a senior executive woman who works in a male-dominated profession. I have learned to be a good listener. a person of few words, and a master of relatively neutral one liners that inspire deeper thinking. Over the years I have been the "casual target" of condescending remarks and demeaning, dismissive discounts of my expert or astute comments about operational issues and current events. My reaction is to look very openly and directly at the commenter and pleasantly maintain eye contact for as long as it takes to create a shift in their demeanor. Once, a female colleague disturbed about my lack of reaction, was compelled to say, "Are you aware he just insulted you?!" I looked at her incredulously and said, " I AM!' And returned to silently observing him as a human being. He was so rocked by the focused attention that he muttered something that sounded like closure and wandered off to another group. He was never disrespectful again in future business meetings, to me or anyone else.

      I also hate conflict, and am often embarrassed how obvious that is to those who dish it out. I've found it easier to be quick witted if I can predict who will create it. No matter how friendly they are, when you meet somebody who is loud, highly confident, and says aloud most of what they think, tell yourself "This person will insult me one day." It may not happen, but if you expect it, you'll remain calm and quick-witted when it does. Quiet people can also be rude, but I find them less intimidating, so I limit mental prep to the loud ones.

    I don't like giving a green light to insults. Laughing & making a joke just invites them to insult you again in the future and call it 'banter'. I much prefer the boundary method; make it clear that I won't tolerate certain behaviours now or in the future. I don't really care about how I come across doing that, because trying to be 'likeable' all of the time despite being insulted... well that's called people pleasing and it's not great.

      The intent of that topic wasn’t to just laugh when someone insults you, but to train yourself to always see the insult in a positive and playful way so that you can just laugh at it and not be offended by it. Obviously this has a limit to just how insulting something can be, but if it’s a fairly tame thing that can be seen as playful than it makes a lot of sense.

      It's much better for you if you frame it as a joke to you and all the people around, not only you show you're strong and not easily affected, but you make everyone else in the room have more fun. Also, you let the offender off the hook, but the underlying message is "I'll let this one slip, but I could make you pay for it if I wanted. I won't be intimidated by you."

    My father used to insult me multiple times a day, my sister, and my mother included and called it “playing.” He was bullying and when it hurt too much I cried because I was emotionally distraught as a kid to hear these things from the “powerful figure” of the family. He would say I was too sensitive and couldn’t “play.”
    Now, since we’ve all checked him for his inappropriate reactions, he tries using power plays that are harmful to other aspects of our lives. AKA threatening to cut us off the family for something or something financial benefiting our future. I walked away this year. I told my mother I will not be insulted after all the work I did internally growing up just to be experiencing his toxicity again because she decides to stay with him. She understands, but thinks I need to be patient with him because he had childhood trauma. 1-He’s not working on healing that. And 2-he is still passing it down to his family. This is why I have friends as my chosen family.

    What I really miss a lot from these kinds of videos, is the fact that although all of these work well in professional or cordial settings. There are a lot of bullying-like situations when this doesn't work. I come from a small remote village in the country side, and when someone roasts you, a lot of the time they are not trying to play a joke, they are genuinely trying to hurt you. Heck sometimes they even say it plain and out loud that they want to hurt you.
    My problem with this videos is that the only advice when the other person is trying to genuinely be malicious is to walk away, but you do that in a small community that values strength and fighting and you are going to end up alone very fast. Very quickly you will run out of people that you have walked out on and can no longer see.

That indicates that they must be (mentally) not well for behaving like that which is actually true and puts them of cause now they have to explain themselves :-)

    Nice one! So far this is my favorite out of all the "How to Make a Rude Person Immediately Regret Insulting You" type series since it combines all the elements seen in each of them including hard and soft lines. One aspect I was hoping to see in any of these style type of videos, is to ask clarifying questions such as, "What do you mean?" in response to back handed compliments that would give the antagonist a chance to save face, but also let them know that you know they're up to something. Useful if you're in a professional setting such as work.

    2. Point out they are easy to dislike "e.g. if you could ever meet yourself you would hate it"
    3. Trojan Horse Compliment
    These three are likely to make enemies
    4. Compliment the insult
    5. Assume positive intent
    6. Agree and exaggerate
    7. Be nom reactive
    8. Call out their behavior (not the person)
    9. Just walk Away
    10. Draw a boundary and walk away if it gets crossed

  • @SpokoR3
    @SpokoR3 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +49

    Insult's comeback with an insult is a great tool for stopping people from insulting you again. It's likely that the first time you get insulted for something new, you won't have a comeback... but if someone insulted you once, they'll do it again and in a similar way. So you can prepare for the next chance and attack their insecurity through an insulting joke.
    For example, there was this one japanese lady who twice tried to insult me based on skin color by saying, "hey! u are black even not from africa" (I'm from srilanka). The first time, I was taken aback but explained that ancestry, equatorial country, etc.. but of course she didn't get it.
    The next time she said, "hey... why u so black?". (I was preparing for this moment LoL) I simply said, "the same reason why your eyes are so small." Everybody burst our laughing.
    Should have seen the look on her face. She stopped insulting me.

    • @Dawn737

      Indeed, I agree that, with people who insult you, often the best approach is to return the same rudeness (great example, btw). I used to be easy to insult, because I hated conflict and couldn't fathom that some people would seek it out. One day, after I had thrown up in my middle school's hallway because my mother had insisted on sending me to school ill, an obese boy bullied me over it. I realized he was doing it because he figured I was too nice to point out the obvious, so I decided if he could hit low, so could I. I said, "I did it because I never want to wind up as fat as you." While it didn't quite have the clever zing that your comeback did, this boy did realize he had better leave me alone after that.

However, with enemies, or more precisely, with mischievous individuals, one requires all those measures. This is because we live in a sophisticated society where resorting to violence 🔪 simply isn't an option for dealing with those who mock us.

    Remember, most people have insulted others knowingly or unknowingly by accident at one time or another in life, it's those who make this a way of life who have a toxic personality and should be interacted with at arms length with caution. Every person has value and is made in the image of God, those who use insults as a regular part of communication may also be sociopathic, narcissistic, anti-social personality, etc. And insults covered with humor are still insults. Those who use them regularly rather than rarely aren't true friends.

      I am a therapist and have helped clients with assertiveness, confidence and verbal self defence for over 25 years.
      Always try to smile or chuckle in reponse to ridicule or a put down, however unexpected it is. Reply something like - 'Charming!' or 'Any more charming compliments?' If s/he repeats the insults try: 'What ARE you talking about?'
      For a bigger put down try - ' Oh please...shut up?' or 'Ah shut up!' or 'Rubbish! ' or 'What absolute rubbish!' or 'Hey stop that - behave yourself!' (as if talking to a child).
      If someone takes the Mickey I always smile and mock them back saying 'that's just pathetic' or 'that's childish' and if they or other laugh at you, keep smiling and say 'what ARE you talking about' or if the attack is worse say: 'little things please little minds' in a SING SONG way, and maybe repeat it if any more comments are made at your expense.
      As a last resort say - 'Have you always been a moron?'
      If it becomes a jokey name calling exchange make sure you have 4 or 5 ready memorised. (D^ck head/ar*e hole/moron/douchebag/sh^t face/b*tch/slimebag).Name calling in a jokey, high pitched, silly voice softens their rudeness if necessary. If you over do it apologise in a jokey way: 'Hey/oops, sorry that sounded bad'.
      If in a group setting you are targeted by the same person again, say 'Oh not you again douchebag' or 'ah shut up douchebag' (or whatever name you called them before). If they attempt to bully you repeatedly at a social occasion call them by the name whenever you adress them, e.g. say 'Goodbye douchebag' when parting. If necessary say 'sorry I did not mean to offend you'

      I spent much of my life trying to figure out how to increase my confidence. When I finally discovered the answer, it turned out to be much easier than I had expected. People hate how this sounds when I write it out, but the actual secret is simply to lose respect for everyone else. Let that pedestal you have everyone on drop, so that you finally accept that your opinions are smarter than theirs (in some cases, by quite a lot!). Trust me - this is how confident people naturally think, and when you've lost respect for everyone else, they will treat you better, because you clearly think highly of your own intellect, so they will assume you are suddenly smarter than you were when you gave their opinions too much respect.
