Which do you end up doing more often
When someone annoys you by saying something stupid...and then later see a chance to jab right back.....Do you do it?
Do you follow:
an eye for and eye
or
turn the other cheek?

Re: Which do you end up doing more often
It depends on what its about. If it something that makes them look stupid by what they are saying that in itself I turn the other cheek, but if someone is saying something that only I would see as a jab to ME then yes I would def jab back if the opportunity arises.

Re: Which do you end up doing more often
Matters what mood I'm in.
BUT to be honest...I usually will try to get them back with a stupid comment about something they said...
Ex: a friend of ours...her mom is in real-estate. She took us to see a house that was "perfect for us"...LONG story short it was a sh*t hole!
All she kept on saying was "this will sell in a couple of days...you should really jump on it...stop being cheap!"
Well this was 3 months ago...and the house is STILL for sale.
I couldn't WAIT to see her...and when I did I played stupid and said. WOW! I saw that house is STILL up for sale! I guess the market changed huh? You said it was SURE to sell within DAYSSSS... and I said it like 5
times!
Forgot to mention they DROPPED the price on top of it!

thats a tough one, but if I had to make a choice Id say turn the cheek. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.

If they accidentally put a foot in their mouth (which is usually the case), I let it go.
If it is someone who is consistently obnoxious, I'll jab 'em right back.

No, I don't usually jab back. But it does depend on the person and the comment.

Re: Which do you end up doing more often
saddly, I usually wait and jab back- unless I feel like it would be a "low blow".
