Facebook AMOG battle

Hey guys, I'm in the middle of a Facebook war right now. I know it's something that's rare, but it happened to me. I've got this AMOG who used to be my high school friend (let's call him Tom) and obviously has turned his back on me.

I've spoken to Instinct about Tom always attacking me and he tells me Tom here is probably trying to pick up my girls on facebook and is seeking attention rather than attacking me. Here's the break down of what went down so far:

Me (Status): Dear nerdy friends: I gots me a (name of computer case) case for boxing day. Temps went down by 17 degrees!!

Tom: OMG. You did not just post that!

Tom's supporting bitch : ^ *likes*

Me: I said my NERDY friends! Stop trying to but in on our secret meetings! (Credits to Instinct)

Tom: loser. ahaha. just kiddings! kinda?

----------------------------------------------

I haven't made a response to him yet, but here's what I plan on responding with. Please give me suggestions and feedback to see if my response will shoot this pest off my back or not.

My planned response: Did you hear? Nerds are in trend right now. But thanks for trying Tom.

What do you guys think?

At this point just ignore. You've said your peice

Just ignore him dude. Replying to stupid, senseless comments will just make you look more stupid. And next time you post
something and he comments something similar, just ignore again. Or if you must reply, just post something like... "Your point bro?" or "That the drugs talking, dude? Haha"

Use one of Cultured lines should serve just fine in this situation. Don't deign to petty Facebook battles. If he wants to sully himself, let him Misashi your battles for you.

Seriously, gato, don't buy into his BS. You'll be more than fine.

Agreed. Just reply with "that's cute" or something akin to patting him on the shoulder.

Try to call him 'buddy' or 'pal' also... as it is kind of condescending.

or...

if it was me, i would just delete him as a friend and move on... life is to short to deal with jerkoffs.

Don't be drawn into this type of thing. The very act of continuing this little game is by it's very nature, forcing you to lower you value to his level. An alpha man isn't threatened by this type of douche, and any fall-out that it may bring. He doesn't feel the need to even try to defend himself past an initial dismissal.

It might sound kinda too self-help (or gay, or feminine) but I am just reminded by that quote that goes something like... "if the moon paid attention to all the dogs howling at it, it would stop shining"

Stop paying attention to the dogs, dude. Just continue doing what you do best.

Sometimes intimidation and irritation can get into our nerves and we end up messing up things-especially our game. Don't mind those stuff. Stay focus on what you're doing.

Is it true that guys like "Tom" have low confidence and thats the why they fark with people and trying to make people lower their values?

They could have low confidence. Or they're just being a jerk. Or crazy. Or are really bored. Or mean. Who knows why some guys want to make an ass of themselves? What matters is you don't.

haha nice...a computer illiterate amoger huh?? seen plenty of those in my day...I am a computer nerd myself, but have an athlete appearance. I grew up on DOS @ 5 yrs old typing commands away at a monochrome screen with a 8088 4 mhz pc. It's my experience that people that are illiterate and ignorant on computers feel stupid and like to make themselves feel better by classifying others who are actually intelligent by labeling them as nerds. It's happened my entire life when people like my jock friends came over and saw stuff like a slackware server in my closet in 9th grade. When I got older the comments didn't really come until I was around hot girls, I guess trying to dlv me to give them a better chance, but I just laughed it off and it never really hurt me. Remember...haters are going to hate and you have to be ready to blow it off. I agree with Hightower and culturedpearls...jus t ignore it. If you act like its a big deal, then it will be and that will show insecurity on your part and lower your value. I once heard Brian Tracy say that you can always tell how big a man is by size of the problems that bother him. Just laugh it off knowing what Bill Gates said is probably true “Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.” and chances are he will.

Hey, I like that one!

The odds are big that most people won't get to read all of the alerts from their friends, what more the comments for each one. So just let it go. The girl, if she read it, might have even said, "Huh?" and proceeded to just not trouble herself about it. So should you.

I always encourage ignoring -mostly for you.

I remember that there was a time when I felt COMPELLED to "put them in their place."

It's a weird thing you can't seem to control.

The general rule of thumb is that if it's harder to not respond than to respond, emotionally, than that's an indication you should not respond.

It's usually the "nice guy" inside us that "doesn't want to be misunderstood."

It's the bad boy that doesn't give a Sh1t what others think, and is happy to let them catch up to us later.

Respect +++

Computer geeks haven't been asocial boys in a basement for decades. If a woman sees you are more social and fun then the jocks, she won't care what your hobbies are.

I'm posting this just to show the attitude, this is an old thread. Whatever.


Here's what I'd do.

Tom,that's a little thing called technology, capischi?
Now,if the world was full of pr1cks like you,hot water would not be invented and you'd still be washing your c0ck with cold water and it would keep getting smaller(dunno if it's possible to become smaller than its actual size,I guess). Now,get out of my profile and start checking out your other 'targets'.This is a free world,no one will judge you for being gay and checking men's profiles.
