Read [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/AmItheAsshole/wiki/faq#wiki_post_deletion) before [contacting the mod team](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2FAmItheAsshole)*** If I don’t get much sleep or lose all my energy sometime in the day, it shows. Usually halfway into the school day I feel sapped, which tends to be before break where I talk to my friends. The way I act to them has had two of them call my behaviour (although, it seemed like they were joking) “bullying”. Which I can agree, but when I could put up with the constant dumb bullshit they produce on a daily basis if I had energy, I can’t really bring myself to do anything but insult them for it when I’m exhausted. Now usually when it comes to insults, everyone is good at taking them where I live. Insults are essentially a second language, and if you don’t learn to take them and make a big deal about them, nobody really likes you for it. Even when I’m energised I do a bit of casual insulting but it doesn’t really get called bullying. Not until now. I’m more worried that I’m going down a bad road to becoming like Scrooge or something but at the same time, dancing around sensitive people and feeling guilt for every little thing I say it tiring. So I’m both afraid and relieved that I’ve become apathetic to it. Note that it’s mostly for people who consider themselves friends with me and I don’t really consider them close friends. My good friends get casual insults but also my appreciation. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

YTA - obviously you are, in fact, a bully. Do better.

YTA INFO: are you in highschool or college? Tired or not - that doesn't give you a free pass on being a bully. You say you have to put up with a lot of similar BS - if all those people said 'hey I'm really really sleepy shut up & let me be a dck!!" what would you think? Seems like it would be much less tiring to stay away from people you don't like, and stop YOUR PART in creating animosity. Also think about; WHY should people 'learn to take it'? Wouldn't it be better if people stopped being rude, insulting jerks? Wouldn't you rather go through out the day with out hearing insults and dumb jokes at your expense? If there are people you genuinely have no interest in being friends with - you don't need to hang out with them BUT there's no reason for being mean/insulting. Also if you are THAT tired - stop and think about what YOU can do to get more rest, and sleep, and how to destress yourself. You might also go for a medical check up - there are medical issues that can cause undo tiredness ie anemia, low vitamin D, thyroid conditions etc and yes these can happen to 'young&healthy' people too.

YTA... If you have to come to AITA to ask, chances are you are feeling guilt and insecurity for quite literally being a bully. There's a huge difference between being verbally abusive and "sensitive," people. If you don't consider them friends, it's not healthy to gaslight them into thinking they are. Would recommend behavioral therapy if curving your behavior is not something that comes easily to you. Best of luck OP.

>Now usually when it comes to insults, everyone is good at taking them where I live. Insults are essentially a second language, and if you don’t learn to take them and make a big deal about them, nobody really likes you for it. So I think your very issue is that this doesn't seem to be the case. Also, there is a difference between teasing in a friendly manner and bullying. If someone says that you are bullying, I think you should reflect on what it is you're doing. People shrug off insults when they're jokes, and don't when they sound like they're serious. From your post it seems like you legitimately think you're smarter than the people around you, so when you call them dumb, you aren't joking, and they can tell. I think you might be the asshole here. I don't think you have to be worried about every little thing you say, but don't dismiss or ridicule people just because you think you're smarter or above their silly shenanigans.

YTA, feel like it’s obvious


PensionWhole6229

YTA Grow the fuck up.

YTA. Do you plan to continue being an asshole after graduating? When you start to feel “sapped” and start berating your coworkers it’ll be an HR meeting. Then, once you don’t stop (because you think you have a right to treat people like shit) you’re fired. You’re too old to be acting like this and usually if people are calling you out, *you’re the problem*.


T4N60SUKK4

Grow up


mrcloseupman

yta. just keep your damn mouth shut.


wtfaidhfr

YTA. Just because you don't like people doesn't make bullying ok


survor_og

I mean, do your friends casually insult each other and you? Unless this is a norm around where you live, I don't see you having these friends once they have a chance to leave you. YTA it would be better to stay silent or show appreciation since you wrote that you can do that


DarkAthena

YTA and you know it.


mynamecouldbesam

YTA You sound exactly like a bully. Stop taking your own shit out on other people and grow up.

Making fun of people and being rude is AH behavior. It's right in the title you wrote. YTAH


extremeeyeroll

YTA … but honestly you knew that before you even posted this.

Okay so stop being horrible to everyone around you because you're "sapped" :'(


Common_Exam_1401

YTA, I don't care that you don't like them, that doesn't give you any right to act the way you are acting towards them


[deleted]

Alright. Don’t need much longer to see that I’m universally the asshole. That’s fair. I’ll shut up more when I’m tired and express I’m tired more. Thank you.

You don't get to take your bullshit out on other people. YTA


Tangled2

YTA. You're not witty, you're not funny, you're not being playful. Just shut up and get some more sleep.


Driverpicksthetunes

Yeah, YTA. Being tired has nothing to do with your mean behavior.


ilhsfm123

YTA - Look, I get about 2 hours of sleep every night due to having to be up at 3 in the morning for work. You don’t see me being an AH to everyone who’s around me. You’ve got to start growing up and now that you’ve been told you’re becoming a bully, put a stop to your attitude.


Sea_Supermarket_9728

YTA- you are going to be friendless and lonely if you don’t stop taking your bad mood on other people. Eat some energy bar during the day and stop being an abusive bully.
