Okay, so a vent...

Sorry all in advance, but this is a grumpy post.

I am constantly amazed at people who have the ability of continually talking down to others (and/or talk to them like they are dirt and/or have an IQ of 12) without a second thought.  I often wondered, "is it because the targeted individual does not talk back?  Maybe if the person who was being talked down spoke up, the poor behavior would stop."  News flash- this isn't true.  Every time I see someone speak up when they are quite obviously being insulted, they are responded to with an excuse of "well you just don't get me/it/this" so that the poorly behaved individual can continue on with their rude ways without having to admit that *MAYBE, just MAYBE* they are in the wrong occasionally.

So truly, I am beginning to realize that there is absolutely no cure (or help) for individuals who cannot even look at their reflection in the mirror; they have to come to the realization themselves, and fix things themselves.  There is absolutely nothing that anyone else can do to change/enlighten that person.  

Either deal, or remove yourself from the situation... it isn't going to change.
