In reply to the discussion: Have you been cyber bullied here at DU? [View all]mitch96

Same here. One side of the spectrum would call it "PC" and the other would call it insensitive.
Either way I realized it was prolly not a nice thing to say. Yes I have used it to someone's face but to me it was an education. Why trash someone just for the sake of trashing someone?

To me it says I have won the conversation and they want it to go away.. YMMV..

Never. But then, I am quite capable of calling someone out if they go over the line.

I guess it just didn't seem like bullying to me. I thought of it as an attempt to change the subject
