Yes,if only we could get a balance between putting jerks in their place and not offending people. It's a fine one...!

The thing is, WE think they are jerks, as some people actually are well-meaning, and my own perception is jaded in such a way that makes them jerks. But then of course, there are real jerks and we can offend those.
And then there are those low-self-esteem people that really push my buttons because they need to get over themselves as they bite at everyone but themselves. Well, I'll bite back!
See? I have less patience with people who really bug me. I never used to have this kind of response and just let things slide and let them be in their own clouded world.
