or they could go positive:
Or taunty:
"I'm More Christian Than You And I Don't Even Go To Church, Neener Neener"
"For A Guy Who Believes He Evolved From Monkeys, I Seem To Follow Jesus' Lessons Better Than
Some People
I Could Mention, But Won't Because I'm So Much Nicer."
I want those!
Especially if I ever go to a town hall.
msbelle is one of the nice people. I should be more like her.
As the Reasons can attest, the nice-guy lessons bounce right off my bitterness-skin. Jilli sometimes despairs - the whole point of her book is "be nice", and it's mostly-lost on me.

Not true! I am a big proponent of making the distinction between nice and polite -- they are not the same thing at all.
"Polite" is the behavior that makes assholes act in a socially acceptable manner. Which, you know, we need to do.
I can't define "nice". Not enough experience.
Edited for clarity of statement.
msbelle....nice
I am, in fact, the nicest. I haven't pointed that out recently, it should be noted.
You're so nice
You're not good
You're not bad
You're just...nice
I'm not good
I'm not nice
I'm just right
I'm the Witch
You're the world!
ETA: That's for Miracleman, not msbelle!
I'm the Witch / You're all liars and thieves / like his father! / Like his son will be too / Oh, why bother?
I'm not that nice.
People usually find out when they mistake courtesy, for, like, being a punk, and a doormat, and going along no matter what.
It usually surprises the hell out of them, too.
You...you're singing "Into the Woods" near me.
I adore you all even more now.
