I don’t care how mad you are at somebody, cursing them out and calling them petty names is still uncalled for.

Not only are you reciprocating the hate that made you upset in the first place, which will in turn just cause a circle of hate, but nobody deserves to be cursed out (at least, I can guarantee that 95% of the people you get mad at).

This is kind of personal for me so I’m not going into a bunch of details, but I went through an abusive “relationship” (I use the term relationship very loosely) where the words and threats were the driving factor. And that shit HURTS. Words are arguable more powerful than actions, and to think that someone is getting called a “stupid c*nt” or a “bitch” makes me cringe because it reminds me of what I went through.

I don’t care if they called you an expletive first. I don’t care if they’re at fault.

You can express your anger and reprimand them without pettily cursing someone out.

Maybe it’s just me, but calling people filthy, low names is one of the worst things you can do, and for many people I know, including myself, it can be damn triggering.

Guard your tongue; it’s your strongest weapon.
