How to Make People Not Respect You

Thursday, July 26, 2007

1. First, upon meeting them, be extremely nice.

2. Agree with everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING, they say, even off-the-wall opinions.

3. Tell them how great they are.

4. Admit that you don't like yourself. Put yourself down in personal way, all the time.

5. Be extremely wishy-washy in your views: agree with people who don't agree with you, and when they call you out about not agreeing with them, make some excuse.

If successful, you will be fondly considered slightly dumb by some, completely ignored by others, and generally thought by all to be the group "submissive." No one will want you on their team.
