How To Spot A Shitty Person

Punch him in the nose was my first thought. Not just a gentle love tap. A knock-his-lights-out right hook.

People are shitty.

We run into them throughout our lives. Some are better than others, but we’ll have the leftover of someone shitty stuck on your shoe at some point.

You can’t escape them.

Here are a few ways that have helped me spot a shitty person and avoid them at all costs.

They gossip behind EVERYONE’S back.

Gossip is talking shit. It’s telling stories about things that aren’t confirmed. Most of it is bullshit.

Gossiping is part of some people’s DNA.

They live for it. They seek out their next gossip victim.

It’s because of their weak personality they don’t address me in person. It’s a character flaw — someone who’s conflict-averse. Someone shitty.

Healthy conflict is good. It’s what helps me become better. It’s what helps push me towards my goals.

Gossip is bad.

So is assuming.

They lie.
