Don't humans do lots of things to set people "off", that they don't even know they're doing?

Question

Like rolling thier eyes at us when we're serious. Making ugly faces.
Grunting at us like a hog to show their displeasure.
Isn't all it takes is a nasty tone of voice to set us off?
Why do we do it to others, when we know we don't like it ourselves?

Answer 1

I see this every day with my hubby if he doesn't like someone he constantly goads them with nasty actions and remarks. And if they try to retaliate he gets even worse. I tried talking to him about this and explaining that this only makes him smaller in the eyes of others ( including me) He doesn't care. I don't know why he does this but I hate it. Sometimes it's better to just let things go.
