Verbal Self-Defense - the best mind penetrating words to use?

Question

There's a few people that really tease and annoy me and I would like to give them a severe verbal thrasing for it so they would think twice before doing it again. They say pretty mean things about my family which aren't true.

I would like to try standing up for myself verbally like really drill it home to them so they will feel really bad about it and never do it again.

I always have a problem where someone annoys me but I be lost for words of how to verbally beat the **** out of them for it.

I usually say something like "shut the **** up" and they only recoil briefly, laugh at me then come back for more and more.

thanks

Answer 1

First, I would suggest ignoring these people. They only come at you like that because it gets a rise out of you. If you learn to not let it bother you, or at least look like to them that it doesn't bother you, then they won't tease you, they'll move on to someone else who will give them the reaction they are looking for.
If you want to go through with the verbal thrashing...which I do not suggest because it could easily backfire and get you teased even more...you'll have to pick something out about them that they are self conscious about. You'll have to be observant of these people and where their soft spots are. Then you take that, and you make fun of it.

Its not easy, it envovles knowing more about the world then them for one. It also means knowing them more then they know themselves. See I can get away with it! Only because I understand enough about this world to intimated others with the wisdom. Until you get to that point, you really don't have much to use against them. There is sort of moral avenues you can look down maybe, but again you need to understand the person thats drilling you. Really I couldn't began to give you an unversal phrase that might help you, but if you can take sometime to reflect on what there saying is bs, and how you can point that out to them, you might find something. Really usually its better to just act like it doesn't even get to you. Just say, "well what ever buddy, are you done yet"? Are "wow your so wittie geeze, why does it still feel like you waste my time?" or even "Geeze buddy trying a little hard at my expense to be cool, is it because your so ugly?" Just come up with short, wittie sayings that make it hard form them to add anything, because its all about them. Some more might be

::clap:: congulations! you can form full sentences! cool!::clap::
"Boy I'm glad your funny because you sure as heck don't have much else going for you"
"I'd start talking about you family, but its just too sad to bring up, don't what to offend anyone"

Just spend sometime you know them better then me, coming up with some quick com-upens.....
