cathal Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 What is the worst insult you've ever received, and how did you respond to it?Finally, looking back on it, do you feel you reacted appropriately? .The best victory is when the opponent surrendersof its own accord before there are any actualhostilities...It is best to win without fighting.- Sun-tzu
patusai Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 The worst insult is the one that I have yet to receive. Hopefully I will react honorably "Don't tell me the sky's the limit because I have seen footprints on the moon!" -- Paul Brandt
Jeet Kune Do Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 The worst insult is when I was called a racist word. I went, I beat, he fell, He cry, I win. A drop of sweat spent in practice is a drop of blood saved in a battle.A person who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the man doing it.
Whitefeather Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 I have not really been insulted with severe acuteness by a stranger, but I know some people in a group that I could not really drop out of who insulted me with the standard "stupid", "idiot", or "lame", insults repetively, every week, every month, etcetera. There were several times in which several of them nearly got what they deserved, but, to the chagrin of bad me , nice me won out and I just pretended it did not phase me (except for that one time where one of them nearly got it good; he actually tried to get me to take a swing at him. That was some serious stupidity on his part and temptation on my part).Dave "Between genius and insanity, there lies a fine line.

jaymac Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 The worst and funniest from a relative: "I am so ugly, you look just like me." I did nothing, I said nothing. I was used to this type of comments. I still laugh about it all the time. A great martial artist is one who is humble and respectful of others.
bruceflea Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Looking in the mirror everyday! Be like water my friend!!
Night Rider Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 the worst insult to be takin into thought for me is a racists remark...only because its somethin you cant change...in my case, sometin i wouldnt want to change Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding,it is the bitter potion by which the phasition within you heals your sick self...therefore, trust the phasition, and drink as remedy and silence and tranquility...
ramymensa Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 I have received some insults over the time, but I can't recall any that was as serious to be remembered over time. I usualy ignore them World Shotokan Karate
ebff Posted April 12, 2006 Posted April 12, 2006 Racist stuff told to me when I moved to the UK. It's mostly stopped now that I'm at uni (and I don't care any more anyway) but at the time it was VERY painful. Racism isn't just colour! The absolute worst was when one of my teachers was being racist - sure when kids in your class have a go at you for not speaking English very well you get over it (and also you can hit back hehehe) but when it's a grown member of society who is responsible for educating you... an English teacher as well... the f***er is now trying to stop my brother from getting into med school (he's his referee).
