    I’ve been called worse by better

    I’m trying to work out which is worse:

    • Mr Rogers calling me a Disappointment, or
    • Donald Trump calling me a Shithead

    I think you’re right and that being given a lesser insult by a nicer person cuts deeper.

      Is that even a close call? If Trump called me a shithead I’d wear that as a badge of honor. If Mr Rogers called me a disappointment I would question my life choices.

        Dunno. I feel like only a shithead really knows what a shithead is, but I suppose only if they’re aware they are one.
