Answer:
At some point in time, we’ve all been the target of insulting comments. If the insult seems real, and not some misguided attempt at a joke, the situation can be hurtful and confusing.
Insults don’t always come in a form that allows you to know immediately that you’ve been insulted. The insult wrapped within a compliment, for example, places you in the position of wondering whether to respond to the implicit derogation or the explicit expression of praise.
Suppose, for example, you graduated from school with an excellent record of accomplishment, but the school isn’t one that has a particularly strong reputation. You did your best with the opportunities handed to you and feel good about what you’ve done. However, while in a job interview for a very competitive job, the interviewer looks critically at your resume, and then you. The employer says, “You should be pleased that you made it to the interview stage for this job. You’re definitely a credit to your school: Most of its graduates would never make it to this point in the process.”
This seems like a compliment but in actuality, it’s a put-down of your school, and, hence, you. “You’re a credit to your school” sounds positive, but the next part of the sentence is patronizing and derogatory. Making matters worse, you’d like to tell this person off, but if you do, you might be burning an important bridge for your future. Plus, it doesn’t seem like a good idea to return an insult with an insult in an interview situation.
Simple insults do seem a little bit less perplexing because they have a clear meaning and intent: A stranger passing you by while you’re wearing a Tom Brady t-shirt looks at you and shouts, "The Patriots are a bunch of cheaters!” The insult, though aimed at the team and its quarterback, is by inference aimed at you as a fan.
