the rudest thing someone has ever told you?

That I'm going to suffer in Purgatory for non belief.

The person who said this was my dad.

This wasn't rude tbh. Just depressing because of his rage.
 
A bunch of the insults have to do with the weight. I also got bullied for being thin. People would say I had cancer, AIDS or some fucked up disease.

I signed up for a gym and now I get compliments on my body (and they haven't seen me naked yet).

Guys, please, your weight is something you can certainly change. You'll feel better afterwards, I swear.
 
One time when I was fat (I'm still fat) my boss called me slim fast when I asked for a 2xl shirt instead of xl.

That shit cut deep

A teacher told me that I had to learn how to distinguish between fact and fiction in front of my whole class. Because she thought my project presentation about the SR-71 was based on something from a video game.

I heard a teacher compliment Apollo 13 for "perfectly capturing the feel of the '50s". He was around 30 years old at the time of the mission, :/
 
Probably some shit my latest ex used to say. "Why aren't you like x, why won't you do x, why haven't you got x, I wish you'd x". Dumb idiot and hence why I left her.

I don't see anything rude about this. Maybe you should try to not be so ugly next time?

What the hell? Get the fuck out.
 
While volunteering at a soup kitchen I was told that I was a bad person and going to burn in hell for not going to church by one of the guys organizing the soup kitchen.
 
I told my mom I was getting married and she said "I was afraid of that".

Alternatively, not a comment, but when I was a little fat kid I participated in a cannon ball contest at a pool, and the judge let me win over several grown men. I didn't realize until later that it was a mean spirited joke.

Another time, when waiting in line at Subway, there was a scary looking guy who looked really nervous about something. I shot a glance his way because he was weirding me out, and he immediately comes up to me, does a gangster pose, and says in a very angry manner "What's your problem, huh? You think I'm cute or something?" That was a huge WTF experience.

Not the rudest thing but kind of the saddest in its own way.

I worked at Burger King in high school where I pretty much did nothing but run meat through the broiler all day. I probably could have went on the line and made a few extra dollars but the stress that it seemed to inspire in everyone else didn't seem worth the meagre reward. I mean, is advancing in BK something you really aspire to?

Well, since broiler is basically all I did, I would also train new hires on it, who would inevitably outpace me and move on to line work in a day or two. One of the guys I trained who moved up said in parting "guess I'll leave you to the bitch work", which... I don't know. Is working the line really a promotion, doing more work for the same pay? Who gets promoted to line at BK and suddenly feels so hot about their accomplishment that they had to put someone else down? Is there really such a thing at BK as non-bitch work? If was weird how much I let it bother me. Not so much what he said but how fucked up it was how this minimum-wage culture encourages employees to hate each other, how management encourages it, etc. Who's acceptance was he trying to gain, and what good did it do him?

*rolls eyes* Come on, man.
 
I used to work at Macy's, and at first I didn't know beforehand that the customer wants the exact change. When I told him to "hold on" which was the wrong thing to say. He yelled at me and told me "don't tell me to hold on!". After he yelled, I felt blank like I couldn't function at that moment. When I gave his change back, he told me that I don't know my math and left. I was upset and humiliated.
 
My mom: "You were so good looking when you were young. Your face has really changed."

Ouch. It was mostly the way she said it too.

A friend of my cousin's wife was looking at old pictures of my cousin and said, "He used to be sooo hot.". He was sitting right there.
 
Working at DD's, it was pretty slow at the time, mid afternoon. Woman comes in for an iced latte. I start making her latte and ask her how she's doing today, it's not uncommon because I'm a pretty friendly person an there's no one else around. She ignores the question. I go to the counter and ring her up, I have a smile on my face, and she's like "what's so funny?" I say "nothing" which she quickly retorts "I just want my latte!" In the bitchiest tone. I Finnish up her drink and tell her to have a nice day.

Having worked in food service for so long, I've had some pretty bad experiences with people, but this one sticks with me. The woman was just so miserable that she wanted me to feel bad for being nice to her. It's that sort of behavior that sets me off too. I'm getting angry at the thought her so I will end the story here.
 
My ex-boss decided to present me with some vitamins, and gave me a long lecture on how she thought I looked ill all the time at a team meeting.

Even if she had a point, it wasnt the most tactful approach so I was a bit put out.

One time, my friends and I were silently sneaking around a dark mine. While my friend was reading a book, I accidentally knocked a bucket attached with a long chain into a well. My friend just closes his book and calls me a fool, and then yells,"throw yourself in next time, and rid us of your stupidity"

So mean.

A police officer called me a "fucking cunt", it was deserved but no one has since said that to my face and meant it.

Probably wasn't the rudest thing but the thing that made me the angriest was once I was ordering food at a restaurant in China, and this little kid was in line with his mom, and he was climbing all over the counter, grabbing straws and throwing them and shit, then he got down and stomped on my foot. His mother was oblivious and/or ignoring his behavior.

I looked down at him and said in Chinese, "What are you doing? Be careful!"

He looked at me and replied "You are a bad man!"

I said, "What did you say?" He replied again, "You are a bad man!"

His mother was paying attention now so I looked at her and waited to hear what her response would be.

She looked at me dead in the eye and then back at her son and said, "He can't understand you, he's a stupid foreigner."

I was so fucking pissed the words were grabbed from my throat and I couldn't reply. My food was ready so I got it and sat down and fumed.

Even thinking about it today still gets me heated. I regret not yelling at her to this day.

Should've stomped on the kid's foot in response and said, payback, little bitch.
 
So I was taking my (then) girlfriend on a trip to France. Before we left, she wanted to go shopping for some new clothes she could wear on the trip. So we're in the middle of the store and all of a sudden and out of nowhere she tells me in this completely serious and disgusted voice, "So my friend went on a trip to Paris and she ended up meeting this handsome rich guy and getting married. I don't know why I don't get to be that lucky..."

I'm sitting there thinking, "Holy shit, woman! I'm taking you to FRANCE and instead of just being a little gracious you're passive aggressively telling me you're disappointed you have to go with me instead of running off and meeting some rich guy like your friend?! Fuck you!"

I seriously thought about not even taking her but our tickets were already bought so I just kept my cool and shrugged it off. Remembering stuff like this reminds me why I'm better off without her.

The appropriate response would been have to calmly remove one's shirt, tear it into strips, break the leg off a table, tie the child to the table leg like like a club, and beat the mother with him.

Or insult her in an exaggerated Southern US accent.

How ungrateful and disrespectful of her. You should have said something right on the spot! It's nice to learn that you kicked her out of your life though.

Holy shit...would have left her there in the store. Good on you for eventually getting away from her though.

Don't let the condition of someone else affect your positive outlook. It's unfortunate that a friendly greeting conjured such a negative response in that person, but it has nothing to do with you. Forgive him for his closed minded nature, and continue to keep it positive.
 
In my senior year of high school I was taking two gym classes consecutively, one the standard class and one an advanced weightlifting class. I was a bit on the heavier side and was really enjoying losing weight in the class but one of my partners would make it a point to tell me how much of a fat piece of shit I was and how I was weak as hell because I couldn't compare to his benchpressing, despite doubling his squat limits.

I made sure to laugh really hard when he dropped a weight on his head and got a concussion.
 
One time a group of other kids wouldn't let me into their club because they didn't like people with my name. It really sucked because there was another person with my name inside, they just didn't want multiple people.

Ex was one of a kind with that shit. Talking one night about it, She states, "If we broke up, I wouldn't have to wait long". Next day states something similar when I respond. "Guess I need to find a girlfriend? Aye?". First thing she does is slap me and call me an asshole. The kicker is from the same night, a coworker called and said come over and be my slut. Trust me, I wouldn't of had to wait long either. >_>

Thinking about it, she said a lot of the same shit too about her friend. "I know you don't like her, but she found this one guy who is buying her all this stuff and its so amazing". So many conversations involved her friend were for the first six months, she said she was cheating on her boyfriend, but its actually an open relationship.

So you've just ended up reinforcing the idea of you being a fat piece of shit to anyone else that was there? Worth it?

Yeah, you're right, there are plenty far more rude things.
I've tried to just block most of them out of my mind, though.

Plus, then there's where to draw the line between "rude" and "mean"/"hurtful."

Jesus guys, I dont mean to be judgmental but some of your family and SO are cunts.

It happens. :/

I had a distant cousin once make a racist/insulting/rude joke to my face, insinuating people who took me in and treated me like family- that all the young males in the family were all screwing/fucking around with me when in reality they were some of the only people who have ever helped me through hard times and helped teach me how to take care of myself and how to live like a normal person day-to-day. It sucks how people think they know what's going on or know better because you share some of the same blood. They can often be the most insulting people because of that assumed understanding when they couldn't be more wrong.

I no longer accommodate this family member or let them in my life. I never should have when I did in the first place but I used to be bad for accommodating people who did me no good and vice versa.
 
I once had someone nearly run me over in a Walmart parking lot right in front of the store. He blew past me as I was crossing to go inside. He pointed at my headphones (which were off) as he passed, as if I should be paying better attention to his dick driving if I don't want to get run over in a parking lot. I responded by pointing to my headphones with the same gesture and a mocking expression on my face, flipping him off with the other hand.

His response to this was to pull alongside me and start mouthing off like he was going to step out of his shitty lifted truck and fight me. He had what I assume was his wife with him, who pleaded with him not to and eventually convinced him to drive away.

I was pissed enough that I probably would've whooped that ass without a second thought as to the consequences, so I'm glad she talked him out of it. Looking back though, it is just head-shakingly dumb that I would've potentially caught an assault charge or worse over this dumb hillbilly's ego.

Anyway, that's more actions than words. If we are talking purely talk, some girl in high school once turned me down on a second date because I was, and I quote "too boring". That was an ego crusher.

People made fun of me when I was fat all the time, in fact some still do (it's not like I got that skinny). What's wrong with that? I guess if some strangers did it or if it was behind my back that would be rude, but it's not like I wasn't fat.

EDIT: Am I missing something?

So by your logic its okay to point and comment on peoples disabilities or their disfigurements.
 
The first one that comes to mind is someone telling me I have a "really punchable face". He said it to my face, at a party, and shared a laugh with the girl next to him. Jokes on him, I'm a sex god now!
