Tips for Holding a Grudge

November 3rd, 2006

Tom Spitz writes:

A situation recently arose between myself and a friend of mine. I won't get into it, but it has turned me against him to the point the we no longer are on speaking terms, even though we still hang in the same social circles.

What I want to know is how I can make sure my grudge against him is extremely evident to other people without doing ridiculous things. Basically I want people to side with me without having to bring the situation up all the time and whine about it. I want tips on how to physically display my grudge in a civilized manner.

Can you guys help?

Listen SPITZ, our advice here has been subtle, but sound. You'll notice none of us has replied to your request for almost 2 solid months. It's little things like this that you need to do when you are bearing the cross of a minor grudge.

Don't take all this personally, we don't have any real grudge against you but we felt this would be the best way to get our message across: when it comes to a grudge, it's the small things that count.
