Well i got a lot of answers here, And alot of people are with the "Karma" thing. I live by that rule "Do unto other's as you want undone to you" Seriously there are certain things i'll do to people that are mean (Or say) and since i wont mind them doin, (Or saying) the same exact things back to me, im fine. So once again there's my opinion, being nice is overrated, why bite your tounge when people are gonna try to walk all over you for it? just stop em right in there tracks and let em taste their own ****!

Totally. I'm tired of nice. Genuine sincerity, kindness, generousity, great things. Nice is one of the most disgusting words to me now.
In fact, I equate nice with inauthenticity, sycophantism, spinelessness, lack of willpower and cowardice.
I'd bother to explain but I don't really care about getting the "best answer."

Yes, it can be very overrated. However, no kind deed is EVER a waste, even if you don't see the outcome. What is troublesome, is that there are people out there, that take advantage of others' kindness. However, you get to choose those that you spend time with, at least to some degree. Very kindly let those that are rude and mean, out of your life, or at a distance. Seek out those that are more like you, and you won't regret being nice so much. It is all about limits, and wise decision making as well. Spreading kindness, is a great thing to do.

It depends on the time scale you're talking about. Being a jerk will benefit you in the short run, but people will learn that you can't be trusted. Then you have to keep moving in order to find fresh targets. If you don't care about lasting relationships, you could do this. That pretty much defines a sociopath. Since the vast majority of people aren't sociopaths, you'll exist on the fringe of society.

I agree Kelly Kelly is puffed up. It gets on my nerves while she makes those sounds interior the hoop. Like rattling in case you may not take the soreness then why attempt against, bypass away the spot to somebody who can truthfully attempt against and might improve their skills. Everytime shes going to accomplish a flow she sounds like she is thinking would desire to I hit them or not. while she gained on her adventure against Beth i became like wtf! How can she beat Beth; Kelly can not even beat Maria. Everytime she stands interior the nook of the hoop preparing for that stupid little flow she does i will't stand it, can not she do any strikes. If Kelly Kelly ever turns into Womens Champ. it is going to be a shame to the Championship. it will make it somewhat is status bypass each and each of ways down. Wait no Kelly Kelly is a shame to the Womens branch. How can she be named the main more suitable diva of 2008 whilst she has no skills and he or she starts off screaming and whinning while shes in a adventure, shes worse then how Maria use to be while she use to assert 'Come On!' and different issues. And the difficulty is many of the followers are blind they only shop on together with her as a results of fact they think of shes warm like heavily can not they see she has NO potential. for my area I even have never considered a WRESTLER who's so puffed up and basically sucks at wrestling and has no skills.

I am one of those people that is usually nice and hates conflict. I don't like to fight or be rude, even if someone was rude to me.
I find that instead of stooping to their level (becaue people do act like animals trying to be in control and be the top dog, scrapping all the time...) I don't want to be that person. I find that refusing to answer their nosy questions and refusing to let them push my buttons... Silence... smiles... or a dirty look. If I need to set a boundry, I say it and walk away... i don't put up with crap, but I am a big girl, I find that in walking away, I make a point, but more importantly... I keep my inner peace

It depends on the situation. If a little girl tells me she is better at video games than I am, I am not going to go talking smack telling her I will kill her at Madden cause she is a sh** talking little sh**. Instead I would probably smile and say sure you are kid!
But on the other hand if somebody is being a total moron I am going to let them know about it. If my neighbor starts hammering on stuff at 2 am I am probably going to go out there and tell him to shut the fu** up!

Being nice can create confidence or courage in yourself.
Being mean is underated.
