Facebook Angst

Ignore her, block her and move on. She's just trying to get you flared up.

Or as we say on the internet:

 

[Robert632]

Ignore it. no clever comebacks or sarcasm or anything, just flat out ignore her.

Chances are, she got really drunk or high and confused you with a cast member from "Jersey Shore," or some equally terrible reality show before she posted this.

Er...you kinda walked into it "I'll tell you what I dislike about you" may generally be more lighthearted, but if you ask an asshole what they dislike about you, they'll probably tell you in no uncertain terms. It's like saying "slap me in the face" and then complaining they slapped you too hard. Or asking Yahtzee to proofread your writing. It's almost certain the result is going to be harsh, you know they have no reason to spare your feelings, and trying to argue is just going to sound petty. So be the mature one, ignore it, and maybe don't ask for the opinions of people you don't respect and/or who obviously don't respect you.

You shouldn't let what she said bother you. Just ignore her.

 

[Twad]

How about ignoring her entirely? THat kind of answer is so vague it doesnt have any value. She is just saying that because she try to get a rise out of you. A gratuitious attack. (of course i dont know her but i already got stuff like this in high school, same pattern)

Ignore her reply or just remove her from the list of PPL that can contact you. Problem solved.

Don't feed the trolls.

Do I win the thread?

 

[RatRace123]

I'd say don't respond, and that the girl might have a crush on you... or she may just really be a jerkhole (um, what do you call a female jerkhole, still a jerkhole? Jerkholette?)
Just leave well enough alone
(*****! That's it!)

The girl in question is like the classic high school slut; always wears tonnes of make-up, never works for anything, is dropping out of school this year (we're in year 10) and is generally a fucking asshole.

well just tell her that....it is the best retort i can think of.

 

[JUMBO PALACE]

Who the fuck cares? Ignore it. So what if she and the rest of your grade hate you for being arrogant?

 

[Makon]

I wouldn't dude, you should never argue with an idiot; they'll bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Honestly? This.

By engaging her any further, all you're doing is setting yourself up for some long-running rant, by her, that paints you as the bad guy in this. The best thing you could really do is ignore her. If she asks if you got her message at any point, acknowledge it, and do your best to play the 'neutral' card. 'Neutral' card being that you acknowledge her opinion, but don't really try to counter or force it. Basically, consider it 'noted'. Any intellectual individual can look at her message and figure out that it isn't something from a truly intellectually gifted or grounded person. Just let it roll off, but overall: do not counter it. Like I said above, and others have said, countering her and her opinion will only give her the ammunition to paint you as the bad guy in it.

Recently, a girl who was in my year level posted this on my facebook page:

Spoiler

i dislike that you need to do something with your hair, get it styled or something. Also the fact that throughout school you always thought you were more intelligent than or above others. Also i dislike that you're oblivious to the fact that almost every single person in our grade dislikes you or maybe you're not and you're smarter than us all.. Sorry it's brutal but you asked.

The problem I face is that I find myself more amused by this than hurt (although I am hurt as well). The girl in question is like the classic high school slut; always wears tonnes of make-up, never works for anything, is dropping out of school this year (we're in year 10) and is generally a fucking asshole. I've never hated her, and I've always felt a sort of empathy towards her.

Now, should I reply to this post, or should I leave well enough alone?

EDIT: In regards to if I asked her opinion or not, yes, I did. She posted one of those, "like this and I'll tell you what I dislike about you," things, but to my knowledge, they're generally done more light-heartedly than this.

Also, I've been very nice (at least, by my standards) to her all year, complimenting her and the like.

She probably feels threatened or annoyed by you and though she's try to save face by being aggressive towards you. As shown by how she said you thought that you were smarter than other people (ergo she feels inferior to you). Trumping her in an argument won't do anything though, she won't change or apologize, just delete your comments. Such is the beauty of the internet.

If you go through with telling it like it is, prepare for the army of white knights.

Spoiler: you will need this

She's running dry on attention and wanted to spark up some drama, totally ignoring anything she says will net you a win. Don't say anything in response at all, that is exactly what she wants. Also, from now on totally ignore her altogether, don't look at her, talk to her, or participate in any conversation that involves her.

Also, slightly off topic, you need to thicken your skin up a bit, if high school sluts are able to come up with a relevant insult that hurts your feelings you are in for a world of hurt once you are in a setting that actually matters.

 

[neoontime]

Don't bother, any response would just feed her, making you look more like a bad guy.

I wouldn't say anything on FB. However I'd confront her in person next time you see her. Not nastily, I'd just politely go up to her and explain your point of view. Having said that you've been pretty judgemental about her in your post so perhaps she senses what you think about her and therefore she's got a good reason to be shitty at you. Why not talk it out politely in person, you might learn something about yourself, and who knows she might even surprise you by being completely different to what you've got her stereotyped as.

 

[quiet_samurai]

Hahahaha!

I wish people would post stuff like that on my stupid FB. I am incredibly amused by people who talk shit through social sites or texting or something, even more so by people who use it as their sole means to have a difficult conversation with someone. Just lets you know who the teal pansy's ... pansies... whatever, are.

And I wouldn't worry about it, she obviously doesn't really like you so who cares what she thinks. Unless you have some burnig need for revenge or something, just let it go. If I was you I'd just forget about it, and if you really want to adress the situation and discuss it then go up to her in person and do so, show her that you aren't one of those pussies that need some piece of tech or a website as an intermediary between the two of you.
