Glad to have you in the club of the verbally assaulted.
I've been a jackass, warped, a brick wall, a fundie, a moron, and mostly, stupid, ignorant, and uneducated. Right wing religious nut. And a few more I don't recall right now. Oh yeah, and intolerant.
I though, haven't been called a bad person yet, but I am sure that will come to pass soon.

Nothing is wrong with what you're saying but remember it's a computer and people don't know your tone or understand sarcasm. However if you're going around just typing in rude or smartass answers you probably want the attention. Remember this is an answers site with people opinions no one is right, wrong, one way or the other.

I think you're not 'telling it like it is' ...that's the first thing.
You're giving your opinion...to what you THINK it is.
That is the premise of this entire exercise.
If you are verbally assaulted, (which is subjective) you need to reconsider how you phrase your questions and or answers if you find being assaulted distateful!
Calling people names, as mentioned above, is just distasteful and shows that the 'caller' can't come up with intelligent discourse.
So just 'step up your game', unless you provoke folks and then can't take the heat.

Well let me define sarcasm for you, it comes from the union of two Greek words, Sarcs which is flesh and asm which means literally tearing. So the to use sarcasm is the literal tearing of the flesh, and that can be quite painful to a lot of people.
There you have it.
By the way learn to spell, judgmental is written as one word. Go back to school and learn something, you ignorant....
SARCASM

If you know what to expect but find yourself surprised at the outcome, it would be your fault for having unrealistic expectations. It is not your fault, however, for the actions of other people. If they are that easily led and manipulated it is their own faults.

Sarcasm is designed to get people's hackles up. Your tendency toward sarcasm is a virtual guarantee that people will not look kindly upon you at first glance. You have to convince your audience that you are laughing with them, not at them. Then they will accept your words more readily.

I cannot judge is someone is good or bad. It's all a matter of perspective. Sometimes when telling it like it is from our own perspective people are offended by our choice of words and they retaliate.

If you can't handle the insults, you should keep your opinions to yourself. It sounds like you do your share of insulting too. I guess you figure you are above insult whereas others aren't.
