How To Lose 'unwanted' Friends & Make 'true' Enemies

1) Ignore people.
  • Don't return phone calls.
  • Never answer the phone.
  • Don't listen when people talk to you.
  • Talk on your cell phone when with others, especially in restaurants or other public places.
  • Don't acknowledge that others exist.
  • The greatest insult that you can give someone is to ignore the person.
*If you excel at this skill you can skip the next four paragraphs*

2) Show disrespect.
  • Make fun of others.
  • Assign stupid nicknames or deliberately mispronounce names.
  • Make people wait for you.
  • Laugh at other people's mistakes, struggles, and fears.
  • Use sarcasm and cynicism freely.
  • Treat people like idiots.
*Disrespect is powerful because it strips people of their dignity*

3) Criticize.
  • Find fault in everything.
  • Spread gossip.
  • Complain about anything and everything.
  • Remind people about mistakes they made, even if decades ago.
  • If possible, embellish your complaints with exaggerated descriptions of failure.
  • Keep a written log of faults, flaws, and fumbles so you can grind on them daily.
  • Develop a whining tone to your voice.
*Critics reduce everything to dirt*

4) Be negative.
  • Master pessimism.
  • Attack every change or new idea.
  • Always focus on failure.
  • Expect the worst to happen.
  • Never accept or approve anything.
  • Refuse to participate or cooperate in any endeavor.
  • If something appears to work despite your efforts, cause delays so you can prepare fresh arguments against it.
*Aggressive gloom creates perpetual hopelessness*

5) Get mad
  • Throw tantrums.
  • Scream.
  • Yell.
  • Shout.
  • Slam doors.
  • Hit walls.
  • Throw things.
  • Act violent.
  • Use accusations, insults, and threats to disrupt conversations.
  • Tolerate nothing.
  • Insist on retribution.
  • Always attack first.
  • Blame your anger on others.
*Unpredictable, insane behavior keeps other people off balance*

Caution: Application of these tactics guarantees that the need for lawyers will increase.
