Plenty of times. And what good intentions or valuable lessons they might have included tends to get drowned out by the terrible method of delivery. (I'm the sort of guy for whom the soft approach works better.)
Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.I have tried to give "The Reason You Suck" Speech to a bully once.
He punched me in the face after I've said about two sentences.
Ooh, nasty.
I've been talked down to and all that loads of times.
By many and I have done the same to many. Whether they listen or not (Or whether I listen or not) depends entirely on my mood and the people involved.
"My life is my own" | If you want to contact me privately, please ask first on the forum.In Real Life, "The Reason You Suck" Speech is only completely safe when you've already won. Talking is NOT a free action.

Yeah, I've been on the receiving end of a couple many years ago for being an immature jerk.
I was wondering why frisbees got bigger as they got closer then it hit me.I got one once in PM's. I don't talk about it much, though, and I'd rather not either.
Me and a different troper dressed down each other over P Ms. I won't say who it was. (NOTE: That sounds so dirty...)
I think I have more trouble being the one chewing people out, and not realizing I am being a jerk, then being on the recieving end.
Go play Kentucky Route Zero. Now.And yes it was kind of a long-winded rant where he turned every personal aspect of my life I shared with him into a deconstructive evaluation of my general existence. Very pseudo-intellectual assumptions and theories, vowing to make me cower in fear over the power of his words. He was trying to validate himself after I refused to talk to him so he decided to "go out with a bang" and drop this 10 part pm on me. I did report him, he got banned, never seen him again.
