    why would you want to be nice about it? being a straight up jerk is all most people understand.

    Yes, it's just hard to not come off as mean to the person.

    Just say, I hope this dont sound mean but .........(explain your feelings)....... so i hope you feel okay about this

    If I was like Cloud I don't think I would have taken that test.

    "Please leave me alone." To an extent, Dyslexicon is right. Most people will ignore you unless you're firm, and being firm can often be interpreted as being mean. Just say it. Don't beat around the bush trying to soften the blow, it's a waste of time.

    You could always say GTFO!!
    I'm chargin mah lazuh!
    But really, yes there are ways to be polite about it.
    But it's more fun to be mean, and being mean always gets the point across

    Vuury true.
    I know sometimes I hate to be mean, so instead of telling someone to back off or whatever, I just avoid them. Unless they really piss me off, then I'll be firm.

    But still, ithere's always the situation where someone might be annoying, or making jokes or something that offend you and they don't even realize it. Then you just gotta be calm with them.
