How to handle a terrible?

So I've been under a lot of stress lately and there is this little terrible at work who likes to gossip and spread rumors. Well recently I learned that he has been telling people that I'm stupid and incompetent. He also suggested that I may be gay because I don't have a girlfriend and noone has seen me crush some pussy. I saw the little shit the other day and I did the manly thing. I walked right up to him as he was talking and said "YOURE RUNNING ON E PAL". he looked at me with a befuddled look on his face and said "what???". I repeated the phrase but this time I made a more menacing face and I got real close to his face with mine. "YOURE RUNNING ON E PAL!!!". Again he questioned my intent as if it was not already clear. Playing dumb, eh? I thought. No problem. Let me make it real clear. YOU'RE RUNNING ON E PAL, WHICH MEANS YOU'RE RUNNING ON EMPTY LIKE A CAR YOU WON'T WON'T RUN ANYMORE LIKE AFTER I BEAT YOU UP!!

His response was " you're stupid", ha! I laughed then I said YOURE ON THE HOOK, PAL" then I made a hook with my finger and pulled on my cheek many times. "ya, I get it", he says. At that point I knew I won, GOT THE GOLD BABY! as I walked away all his friends started laughing at him, haha poor guy.

Sounds like a perfectly legitimate, professional way to handle a grade-school issue of being called gay because you don't have a girlfriend.

Perhaps you could place a tack in his seat next, or start throwing spitballs.

Lastly, you may want to ask yourself precisely who all of his buddies were actually laughing at. Had I been there, I'd be ROFLMAO at you, not that "poor guy" you got so well.

Frankly, I feel stupid even responding any longer as the post is so preposterous, it must simply be phishing. Can't believe anyone would really admit what duey has admitted to.

Guess it takes all kinds.
