I find people who gossip have too little of a life, they spend too much time talking about others and not enough time in getting a life for themselves.

I'm very thick skinned and don't give a damn about anyone talking behind my back and I always remember something my old lady said "if they're having a go at you then they're leaving some other poor bastard alone"! My old lady was a smart woman and she was right about my abilities,, a lot of folks have found I like hassle and I deal with it very effectively. I hate bullies more than gossips though, they always get special thought ..
