Every time you interact with someone you should give them a base level of respect. How they respond determines the amount of respect you continue to proceed with.

Right but often the self-respecting thing to do is not stoop to their level and make a mess.

And some times you have to stoop to their level as some arseholes see any respect as weakness and the behaviour will continue. It should never be the first choice but it it is still an option in extreme cases.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
