You know, I do agree that the perception of rudeness can be very subjective. But the incident I’m referring to was honestly just senseless. The only thing I could gather was that the girl was trying way too hard to impress the guy — for what reason, I have no idea. Maybe this is the new “cool,” who knows.

Directness, I’ll take any day. And knowing you, I can safely say you really don’t give a damn about impressing people — which I respect. But even in my wildest imagination, I can’t picture you trash-talking someone just to look “cool” or edgy. That part is what bothered me most.
