What do you do when someone dumps a steaming pile of judgment all over you, still warm from the source?

I haven't yet learned how to not care, and I'm often bad with a quick zinger of a comeback. So what I do is just kinda mope. Not optimal I suppose.

contemplating bullshit

still warm from the source

1) Do you agree with what they said about me?
2) what did you expect to gain by passing it on to me?
3) Ask me if I care ... BZZZT!  wrong.

moping isn't such a bad response.
beats the tar out of getting all mad at the tattler.

Yeah, wish I were better at not caring. You're right though, moping's better than being seriously ticked off. It's at least more moderate! :-)
