Answers: Yes. It happens to all of us I think. If it happened to you, just let it roll off your back...someone that stoops to such a low means of communication isn't worth the time or energy it takes to get upset.... :)

---

Yes. When people aren't winning an argument they like to go for offensive names.In my opinion it makes them look stupid.

---

I'm a supervisor in a factory! Derogatory is a polite way to refer to what I've been called!

---

Yes. Lots of times.

---

Sure, but I usually walk away when it gets to that point. I follow a 5 minute fight rule. After that? It's over and done with.

---

well, i'm a security guard who has to tell drunk people to go home. what do you think? lol.

In an email I received a couple of days ago, someone from this site called me something I have NEVER been called! It was a very nasty surprise to open a message from someone and be called that. I really was distressed that this person would be allowed to do that! Maybe I should block my email if it happens again.

Otherwise, I don't recall if anyone has said anything derogatory besides calling me stupid. That was from a fellow worker who actually should have applied that word to herself. Everyone told me that after they heard what she said, so that made me feel better. I'm definitely not a stupid person, so I didn't fire back at her, which is probably what she would have preferred me to do.

---

oh yeah. it says a lot more about them than it does about me.

---

what is derogatory to you?

---

Yes, but I generally take it as a compliment

---

Yes, mostly things referring to the facts:
1)I'm half mexican
2)I'm half black
3)I don't speak in ebonics.

---

Yes, many times, mainly behind my back. This is why I put my name tag on the back of my hat so they know who they are flipping off.

---

Oh yeah, on here especially
