People who make fun of you to boost their reputation

<p>There’s some people in my school who basically make fun of others to boost their reputation. Usually when they’re hanging out with their friends they try to impress them (I guess) by making fun of others. Like a week ago, there was something going on in the auditorium and my entire grade was there. I saw a friend of mine with an empty seat next to him, so I decided to sit there. And then this guy from my chemistry class says “mike! looking so sexy today! come sit down with your cool lab partner”. </p>

<p>And also on the bus sometimes, he sits right next to me (in the same seat!) and talks about how cute and hot I am in a sarcastic tone… while his friends are there. And they’re basically staring me down and giggling and he just keeps going on. </p>

<p>It’s so annoying. It’s like he does it just to impress his friends… because when he’s not with them he acts almost completely differently. No “cool” tone of voice, no pretending, like he’s in a calm, relaxed state. </p>

<hr>

<p>I have a tendency to do that…I don’t try to though.</p>

<p>If you’re a guy then you’re perfectly within your rights to ■■■■■■■ at him with one/both eyebrows raised. He’ll probably shut up. Especially if he’s discussing how “sexy” you are. If he doesn’t shut up, then ask him very sweetly (or innocent-looking) Why, how did you come to that conclusion? Do you have any criteria to judge that?
…Not really, but do laugh in his face in a very sarcastic way…</p>

<p>It helps if you’re actually amused by what you’re saying. Don’t try this if you’re quaking in your boots or have a really shaky voice.</p>

<p>One of my friends frequently does that to this akward boy just to watch him squirm around!! ugh…she ****es me off sometimes…</p>

<p>lol i should stop doing this.</p>

<p>^jerk. 10char</p>

<p>lol yea true.</p>

<p>eff you. I hate the jerk guys in my class who pick on people/make fun of guys AND girls for no reason at all. I felt like crying a couple of days ago because in the one class I don’t have many friends in, they picked on me for a mistake I made in class. :confused: It’s really painful. And I don’t understand why people feel the need to make others feel bad. Has everyone lost their compassion? They’re aware that what they’re doing is directly malicious. And now I’m dreading class on monday. I never thought that boys would have the nerve to pick on girls too. But they’re just a bunch of snobs - not even attractive- but they’re so obnoxious and make everything really public. Ugh.</p>

<p>next time, just tell him to get off of your co ck and go hit on someone else (name one of his friends). If he says something like you’re so sexy, then tell him that you don’t date dudes with (name something bad about him to make him feel insecure). </p>

<p>Just beat the dude at his own game… or if you don’t feel comfortable then take him aside when he’s not with his friends and tell him that he’s starting to annoy you and ask him to stop.</p>

<p>Beautiful nights- just ignore it… They’re probably screwing with you because you’re smart and got an answer wrong.</p>

<p>sorry beautifulnights, i pick on my friends most of the time anyways. that’s just the way we are with each other. i would never pick on a girl for no reason at all in the first place.</p>

<p>It’s the oldest trick in the book.</p>

<p>lol those people end up having a few d****y friends and are disliked by everyone that matters/are actually interesting people</p>

Yes, they do. Bunch of biscuits…In my (limited) experience, avoid P.E. classes at all costs.</p>

<p>what the hell? Is this middle school?</p>

<p>Dude. Seriously. Get over it. </p>

<p>There will be stupid, immature people who try to “fit in” that you will have to deal with for the rest of your life in every age group.</p>

<p>Just learn to ignore them now. </p>

<p>When I was a freshman, I had a group of the “preps” stand right behind me in the lunch line and talk very loudly about how they hated the pants I was wearing and then, when they realized I wasn’t getting mad, they started making up stuff about my boyfriend and me to try and p*ss me off.</p>

<p>I rolled my eyes and didn’t spare them a glance. </p>

<p>They’re stupid and ignorant and incredibly immature. They pick on people to improve their self-image and “fit in” because they don’t know the right way to. It’s pathetic. </p>

<p>Personally, I’ve come to the point where I disregard everything those people say because 99% of it is complete crap.</p>

<p>They’re the real losers of the world. And the fact that they will never realize it just solidifies that fact. </p>

<p>So honestly? Just ignore them. </p>

<p>They are not worth the stress and they never will be.</p>

<p>Update: Class today was very normal- no drama. I will keep the great advice people offered in mind- I usually do ignore it but this time for some reason it hit a nerve. Or maybe I was just cranky :P</p>

<p>Thank youuuuu :slight_smile: :)</p>

<p>Don’t worry about them. If there are two things I learned in high school, one of them is that the people who try to get social popularity at the expense of others always fall the hardest in the end. Reminds me a lot about certain idiotic despots back in the day… usually murdered by his closest advisors who fear they might be next.</p>
