*edited the title*

i edited the title for more clarity insted of "revenge" or "justice"


we are all social creatures, belive it or not. In my travles of being an asshat extrodinarie I've disoverd somthing, it makes me wonder.

here is a little game, I come up with a stituation, you can play along to. I make up a "what if" and you give me the justice or revenge needed.

if somone 'slags' cartoon doggies who get treated as fine art, and you are sick of it, and open your mouth. what should be done to you? need a hint?
endless torument.

so here is our topic. "the eye for a speen makes everyone mean" play the game or give us your own tails of "the little jerk who did this to me".

for instance, if you are slightly mean, you are ripe for being picked on. You can, without a doubt be worthy of people making fun of you for what ever reason, those who galiently defend whomever got "hurt" can make fun of you for being sick, poor, ugly. Heck, I'm sure the would be allowed to thorw racist remarks at you.

also they can not read what you say. if you say in defence to them telling you "you are a wealfare leach you sucks the money from tax payers with real jobs', if you say "hey are your friends poor so I can make fun of them for having to buy hand-me-downs", without a doubt you just admitted to saying "Im soo phour i kneed tos buy handmedown cloths"

*slaps head* ok pups, I'll toss you this mutton legg, hand fun.

Well usually when I want revenge, I just kick the back of the person's knees while they're walking down the stairs. Every time.

I suppose that the thirst for revenge doesn't run in my blood as much as I'd like to think it does. Sure, I can be civilly argumentative, but revenge usually results in unnecessary wounds from both sides in conjunction with grudges and other unwanted grief.

Ignoring minor irritations usually helps a lot in these types of situations. My dad calls it the "Horton hears a Who" syndrome, when people take something minor and snowball it into an entire world of problems when it could easily be avoided in the first place by just ignoring it. Brushing your shoulders off of such things usually leads to a more peaceful existance, I've found.

Kuwaizair - in the long, long period of time I've been here, I think I've noticed you a lot more than any other users (why yes, more even than the jailbait female users). What I have noticed is that you have a lot of grievances with the world. You've got beef with the world, and I'm not sure why.
Either you feel the world owes you something, or the world did you wrong -- or the world does you wrong on a regular basis.
The world doesn't owe you anything, and the world doesn't do you wrong -- because you are just as much a part of the world as the world is a part of you, and because there is no right or wrong in the world -- they only exist in human society.
When wolves attack a herd, they'll take the sick or old animals. They don't attack the alpha male or healthy members of the herd -- because, simply, that is not part of the Way of things to be. Humans have a choice to ignore this Way and act as they please -- but it doesn't bring happiness. We don't know if animals have this choice; all we know is how they act. It is possible that the choice doesn't exist in their mind because of generations of doing things in accordance to the Way.

The lesson here is that your own behavior can and does dictate what happens around you. It must of course go deeper than that -- your personality, the deep roots of the YOU inside, must change as well, to accomodate this understanding. By being flexible and accepting (which does not mean people can step all over you), there will gradually be a better outlook on life, and people will like you better.

Here are a few things I can recommend:
1) Lie down outside at night and look at the moon.
2) Open your arms and raise your head slightly when the wind blows
3) When you have a few seconds, take notice of your breath. Notice all that happens around you while you breathe in and out. Bring your thoughts and emotions back here...

I'm actually a person who wants revenge - for anything wrong done to me. That's the way I've always been.

Although my revenge doesn't involve killing the person, though - it mostly involves them getting embarassed in front of a huge crowd and trying to creep them out.

Eh, revenge is bad for the soul. I prefer to let things pass over and away.

I'm not really the type to go out and seek revenge on someone. Sometimes it happens in some pretty nice ways, but I'm not really the type to go out and plan something meant to lower someone. Even the times I wanted to, I kind of came to my senses when I realized that I had better things to do with my time. Call me crazy, but I'm not really hateful enough to formulate plans against a particular person. I like people (they're almost never as bad as you think), and I've also noticed that everybody gets what's coming to them in the grand scheme of things, and it's usually much worse than anything you could do by acting like a child.

If, however, some Suiko-drama happened in my life I would probably start some sort of a badass quest for vengance. But since I live here in reality, that's probably not going to go down.

Trevoke is also dead on about the Way. We may be animals biologically, but our brain and our thoughts mean that we're on a higher level than they are in the mental sense. Acting like we're all animals will probably eventually piss off the wrong person. If you think you're just an animal, you should go live with them.

I am a hate filled person if i'm vexed by someone, but i am also lazy so revenge is not the fist thing that i think about when i wake up, however if you are in front of me and you piss me off i will cut you :D not with a blade but with words, i can have a foul mouth and can occasionally be quick witted, but i can get carried away and not stop until i see tear, maybe even then i wont stop, depends what has been done to me.

That said it take A LOT to get me that vexed, i'm usually an easy going person.

Also, the Way? Whateva, i do what i want :D

Inko, AA, Vincent : while I appreciate your comments, I was talking to kuwaizair and no one else. My words are only supposed to have a meaning to HER and probably won't touch you in the way they'll touch her. If you want to talk to me, I'll tailor my words so they touch you specifically.
