Those who bully the weak are cowards before the strong.\n\nThe man who strikes first admits that his ideas have given out.\n\nIf you are patient in a moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow. \n\nTo talk goodness is not good... only to do it is.\n\nA clever person turns great problems into little ones and little ones into none at all.\n\nHere is a Yiddish one too: \n"Ten enemies cannot do a man the harm that he does to himself."

Someone who tries too hard to fit in with everyone else.\nSomeone who can't think for themselves.\nA fake person. A person who wears only "branded" or "labelled" clothing and thinks that it makes them cooler than others.\nSomeone does things to impress people.\n\nSomeone who is easily manipulated by others, because they substitute the judgment and/or approval of others for their own. The others can be admired friends, strangers or potential mates whose approval the tool seeks. Especially in interpersonal situations, the tool will seek approval from the other, but fail to exercise their own judgment about whether the other person is good or right for them. Alternately, the tool will allow public figures, advertising, or other mass media to replace or form their own opinions on any number of subjects -- most evident in fashion and music choices (often fads or heavily marketed products of suspect quality or style). Somewhat less obvious are tools whose opinions on current events are parroted from sources thought by the tool to be reliably correct -- if you don't follow current events, or didn't come across the original source, you might not realize they hadn't actually given their opinion much thought beyond memorizing the highlights. The recurring theme is that the tool avoids using their own judgment, sometimes even failing to acquire an ersatz opinion; instead just seeking approval. The tool is an open field for anyone who would like to use them for their own purposes. When they choose very poorly, it is obvious to most that the tool has been manipulated and was foolish to have allowed it. Usually singular in actual usage, but sometimes phrases like 'tool shed' or 'hardware store' are used to refer to groups seen as clearly lacking common sense.

Well, I have realized that we all have opinions about how others behave.  So, if you feel that someone complains too much, you're probably right, but pointing it out can be damaging.  The best way to say something about how you are feeling towards something or someone is to simply state that it's your feelings, not necessarily the way the rest of the world views it.  \n\nSo maybe say "listen, sometimes I feel that when you say "this" ( try to give an example) and when you mention stuff about "this and that" (again, try to give an example), it feels like you complain and it feels kind of heavy.  Let's just be lighthearted cause sometimes I just can't handle heavy!!".   Try and approach it with some humor, that's always a good ice breaker.

Regular verbs that accurately express one's meaning are stronger than verbs with "helpers."  The construction be + adjective is sometimes unavoidable or else handy, but not a strong form.\n\nDislike is not really the same as "be adverse to."  One may dislike something but not be adverse to it, as adverse means "in opposition" or "opposed."  Toward the opposite, in essence.\n\nBasically, if you want strong sentences and statements, avoid the passive tense, and find words that are fairly straight-forward.  "I wouldn't be adverse to..." really means "I am not against..."  Of course, people sometimes use circumlocutions ["a talking around"] purposely to soften a statement, and some people like to soften their statements.

Teaching ppl to be sensitive to others is a healthy thing.\n\nUsing terminology that is of a negative tone is detrimental. For example, I can't stand to hear the phrase, "runs like a girl." unless it is actually about someone running I guess. But most of the time it is referring to running away like a coward. That always ticks me off when I believe women have more courage than men when it comes for standing up and fighting for what we believe in at all cost.\n\nWith all that said though, it can be taken to the extreme. And I have no clue what has happen to the phrase, "sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me." \n\nThat teaches us to let negative things bounce off us and that we choose to let somebody's elses opinion of us hurt us or not. We seem to have lost that mentality.\n\nOh yeah I wanted to add a funny story: myself and a friend were talking and she slipped and called someone she knows a damn jew for some financial deal they did. My eyebrows went up.... and she, knowing I am of jewish race, immediately started backtracking. I then said, 'damn Irish drunk' because she is Irish and drinks A LOT. She said ohhh good one and we laughed for I bet half an hour.
