One of my favorite phrases is "sometimes silence is the best response." I received a private message on social media from a stranger. I received this message not because I said something on a friend's post. I received this message not because I even posted a single thing. I received it because I "liked" someone's comment....not their post, their comment. This message not only contained obscene pictures meant to offend me but also a nasty-gram meant to make me feel like crap. It assaulted my character in ways that had to make me laugh because they are NOTHING like what I am and it was a pretty big leap to assume.
I've talked before about people's right to their opinion and it cracks me up when someone actually feels the need to take the time to privately message me to tell me that they disagree (which would be fine) and that I'm a dick because they disagree. Ummmm....that's not how that works. With that said, silence was definitely the best response. If the little twit that wrote the message reads this, thank you for the obscene picture. It's a nice likeness of you.
