Who is the meanest, nastiest person you've ever met?

[Brandeis]

I'm not talking serial killers here, unless you've known one. Then please, by all means, take over the thread.

I'm just talking family members, friends (ex-friends I hope), partners (again I hope exes), psychotic bosses, back-stabbing co-workers, and then there are the people we knew in high school.

The most evil person I've ever known is my grandmother, my Mom's mom. She's strikingly beautiful but possibly the worst example of "grandmother " ever.

When my father died, she told our mother, right in front of all of us, "Now you are a widow. Now You'll get back the respect and honor you lost by marrying that loser."

I had to escort the old B!TCH out of the funeral home while my brother forcibly restrained our little sister from physically attacking the old witch.

After our father's funereal visitation we heard many stories about his run-ins with her, including the day his brakes failed on a hilly rural road several years earlier. That she could have done it was not inconceivable, she knew a lot about cars. We weren't close to being convinced until we caught her listening in on the conversation and all she did was smile and say "You'll never know" and laughed.

The next day she laughed at us in church, during the funeral!!! as we wept. When our Dad's friend said "We'll never know what reallly took ____ from us" , she laughed out loud and winked at people who were grieving, including his own siblings.

No doubt our Dad died of a heart attack and it had nothing to do with her (well maybe) but she couldn't help but let us know how much she hated our father by trying let us think she had something to do with his death. I remember crying so hard that day, our father was a good man and a great father, so easygoing.

And that old witch says "Do you cry for the mother hen when you eat a chicken leg?" and laughs in my face.

Years before, when my grandfather, her husband, died and most of his assets were consumed by bad debts and gambling, the OLD WITCH came to live with us for about four years, until my Dad kicked her out (might have been the brakes incident). So the OLD B!TCH shows up two days after the funeral with AN ITEMIZED BILL for babysitting us grandkids and cooking the occasional meal for the time my father (who she HATED) supported her and gave her a place to live. And our mother paid it!

I could go on and on. I'd better stop.

My stepmother. She's a total evil, vile, vindictive human being.

When my mother thought she might have cancer, my stepmother told me that it was God's way of punishing my mom for her sins (as if stepwhore hasn't SINNED enough on her own) and that if she were to die from it, I should be happy because it would make the world a happier place. What a nice thing to say to an 11-year old boy who's fearing for mother's life, eh?

When I was 13 or 14, my mother bought me a subscription to Soap Opera Digest for my birthday. Well, my stepmom got pissed at me one day (I had called my mother on the phone for more than the 'once a day' limit she had restricted us by... [!@#$%^&*]!), so from that week on, everytime the magazine would arrive in the mail -- the magazine that MY MOTHER paid for as a gift to ME -- my stepmom would gleefully read it from front to back right in front of me, then she'd rip it up so I couldn't read it and throw it away. Nice, eh?

One Christmas morning, she got pissed that my mother bought me and my sisters a bunch of gifts. She thought it was unfair, since my stepbrother's dad didn't get him anything, so she tried to keep us from being able to see our mom on Christmas day. Can you believe that [!@#$%^&*]? Every year after that, she said that the only way we would be able to visit our mom on Christmas day was if my mom bought HER son gifts, as well.

She was a cold, calculating [!@#$%^&*].

My ex-boss and her assistant are b!tches to the extreme. No wonder they lost four employees, including me, in less than six months in 2005. I used to work at a nursing home. One left for an administrative job in dietary, one quit because she couldn't stand them, one moved to a nursing secretary position that paid more money, and I walked out on the job after they tried to force me into working an evening shift when I had seven other co-workers who could have done it as well.

The assistant was the worst though. I HATED this whore (and I can say that because she started sleeping with a married man knowing his wife was sick, and when they wanted to marry, they had to find a church that wouldn't recognize their relationship as adultery). She had it in for me for some reason. I have a feeling she began stealing things out of the office to frame me and make me out to be some thief. One day at lunch, she announced quite melodramatically something of hers was stolen. She looked right at me and asked me if I knew anything about it. I told her "if I wanted to do something to you, I'd do a lot more than steal your stuff." She also began to page me throughout the building just to ask where I was. To this day, I have no idea why she chose me to torment.

However, I can take pride in the fact that on the day I walked out on my job, I told these two a$$holes that they treated me like crap for three years, and I wasn't taking it anymore. Unfortunately, they are still at the nursing home, despite numerous complaints from family members and other employees about their attitude.

Before the end of 2005, they took some patients to the doctor's office where my mom works. They knew her, and was all sweet asking how I was doing. She said I was doing great, and told them that they did me dirty. Good old Mom!

[King]

Wow. I was going to share some stories, but they are pretty immature and petty in comparison.

I would have cocked back and socked some b!tches in the face if I were y'all.

[daysboy]

OMG! What a horrible sounding woman. I have nothing to add because I think this one trumps anything.

[Danni]

I'd say my grand-aunt.

I'll start with my grand-aunt. Now, this witch is such a cancer to the entire family that I just don't deal with her. When I was a child I was supposed to go to Jamaica with her and my cousins. My mom had made arrangements with the maid down there to make sure that my grand aunt wouldn't steal any money that my mom had planned on giving me. The week before I was supposed to go, my mom calls the house in Jamaica to make sure that everything was ready. Come to find out that she and my cousins were already in Jamaica, and didn't tell my mother about the sudden change. Basically, it was a plane ticket wasted.

The worst was what she did to one of her sons. It was her birthday, and everyone was meeting for dinner. M was already on his way to the house when suddenly she tells him to not come. He thinks something's up, but he's already close by so he goes to the house. Turns out that all of her other children and grandchildren are there, and they were trying really hard to make it appear that there was nothing going on. They were trying to hide the food and the birthday cake (unsuccessfully). It didn't take long for him to realize that he, his wife, and his children weren't wanted at the party. Everyone ignored them, and M was devastated. What made it worse was that M was the only child who did anything for her. If she wanted something, he got it for her no questions asked. All of this was because she doesn't like his wife. Then she has the nerve to be upset at the fact that her grandkids want nothing to do with her.

She controls my grandmother. She was emotionally abusive to my mother. She sold off land that had been in our family for nothing. She treats anyone who doesn't worship her like they're nothing.

[Ms. Walsh]

I go to an all-female school, so naturally I'm bound to come across some b!tches. But generally, if someone's open about things, I'm fine with them. I don't care if people are outwardly b!tchy or cold, but I just cannot stand it when people act two-faced and say things behind your back. Basically, anyone who I can't trust, I just cannot like.

There's this one particular person who I live with at school who likes to start a lot of problems. It's her first-year here, so I feel obligated to like her, but it's really difficult because she does shady things. She's the type of person who will be really nice to you to your face, but the minute you're out of hearing distance, she'll be BSing on you.

She lives above me, so I see her a lot because she's always walking by my room. I like to keep my door open, so that friends and other housemates will stop by, but seriously...every time this girl walks by, I feel like hiding. She'll come in my room and say Hi, ask how I am, talk about something, and generally she's really nice. But I know that the minute she's upstairs in her room, she's saying [!@#$%^&*] about me to her friends.

Here's some of the stuff she's done:

1. She told a senior in my house that I didn't like her, so the girl came up to me and accused me of saying things. It was such an awful confrontation. We wound up having a really long conversation about our problems, and everything was worked out, but so much drama happened because of this girl saying stuff.

2. She told my roommate that I hated her because one night I talked about having a party and when she asked about what my roommate would think, I said, "Well, why would she care?" So my roommate asked me if I said anything, and I told her no. I never say anything bad about my roommate EVER because she's the nicest person I know, and is completely mellow about everything! So again, this was a situation that never should have happened, but did because this girl started [!@#$%^&*].

3. When a girl in our house said that she didn't like cliques, the girl said, "Oh, I love cliques!" and then said that she loves drama and starting drama, but not being in the middle of it. They were talking at the top of the staircase in the hallway, and since my room is right next to the bottom of the staircase, I overheard the whole thing. And when she left, I walked out and just shook my head in disbelief, and the other girl had a similar expression.

4. She and her roommate didn't get along. Her roommate was considering moving out, but wasn't sure. So one night, she and another girl talked about moving in together, and then the next night, they went up to the roommate and said that the girl was moving in, meaning that the roommate had no choice, but to move out! It was such a bad situation. The roommate had to find another place to sleep because she just couldn't live with the girl anymore.

5. She's always in other people's business. She told Residential Life that myself and a few of my friends smoke pot, so of course, our HR came up and asked us. It was just so awkward because we're really discreet about it. I never smoke in my room: we only do it in my friend's room who has her own porch, so we do it there (OUTSIDE!) and make sure that the house doesn't smell, and we never take anything outside of the room (it has a bathroom too). And our HR is really chill about things, so we know she wouldn't care. But because this girl opened her mouth, now our HR thinks we're doing awful things. Meanwhile, this girl and her friends smoke weed all the time in her room.

6. She told a girl that another girl in our house had a crush on her (when the girl told her not to say anything). Other similar things have occurred too. So basically, nobody can say anything to her without the whole house finding out the next day.

There's some other stuff, but geez...it's only been 5 months, and she's started so many problems.

I'm sorry to say that the most evil, vile person I've seen in a long time is my sister (ironically, her name is Angel). She is on drugs and uses that as an excuse to mistreat people and be so cruel to them.

[Rhonda37138]

Brandeis, I'm sorry for your pain. That is an awful situation.

[MatinèeGirl]

After reading all these stories I realised I don't really know any mean or nasty persons.Sure I do know people I'm not really crazy about but they're quit nice compared to the people mentioned in the posts above.

[Mason]

Same here. I feel for all of you who actually have to deal with people like this. I can't believe there are some people that are this malicious.

[SpiritualJunkie]

One of the meanest people I've ever met happened to be someone that used to be a really good friend of mine.

I remember when I first met her in high school, she didn't have a lot of friends but it didn't take her long to make a lot and become of the biggest b*tches ever. She's selfish, she is unsocially inept to see the other person's point of view so she takes everything the wrong way. If you're being sarcastic but not in a mean way, she'll take it as an attack towards her.

Let's see..a year and a half ago, I went to see her because she was going off to the UofT. There was me, her, and her friend. Her friend and some other friends had been planning a surprise farewell dinner but for hours her friend couldn't get a hold of everyone. So finally, she suggested, us 3 just go out and do something. Well, the girl who is now my ex-friend didn't seem to appreciate that for what it was worth and acted like hanging out with just the two of us wasn't good enough for her.

Then last summer, I went to Toronto and decided to stay with my ex-friend before my aunt came back. She was still in Edmonton and I had decided to go to Toronto early for Edgefest (met up with some OLP fans). Anyway, my ex-friend calls me up 2 days later asking me too meet up with her at the airport. Of course, I said, "sure" but when she arrived, she seemed kinda cold (later on, she b*tched at me for not giving her a hug since she was the one arriving....umm, okay..well, I'm the one visiting the city for the first time not to mention her cold demeanor was kind of a turnoff). Anyway, she arrived and she was like, "Oh..you brought your luggage." Uh, duh! Where else am I going to put it...I had to check out of the hostel I was in. She was expecting me to help her with the luggage which would have been fine if she hadn't brought FOUR pieces along and all of them practically weighted a ton or two. I knew how to get out of the airport to downtown TO from the terminal I came from (Pearson airport has 3) but not hers. So I asked her how where we were supposed to go to get out of the airport to the UofT and she acted like I was supposed to know...but even SHE didn't have a clue. And this wasn't the first time she's arrived in TO. Anyway, I ended up doing all the finding and asking around. Eventually, we made it to 2 to 3 blocks from her res but her luggage was so heavy that we decided to get a cab which she paid for.

Staying with her for 6 days made me realize how much of a witch this chick is. One time, we went to the grocery store to get some food. It's about a 5 walk block but the items we got were heavy. I commented how heavy my bags were and what amazed me was that she took offense to that. So she grabbed one of my bags and walked all the way back to res without speaking to me! I had, in no way, meant to say it in a bad way..geez.

3 to 4 days in, we were planning to go see some midnight movie. But the theatre was pretty far and I didn't feel comfortable with just the two of us walking so she suggested the cab. I was like, "No way, that's too expensive. We should just take the train which only costs $2.50." Suddenly, she FLIPPED out at me about how it seems like I don't ever wanna contribute spending money. She told me that I was ungrateful because I never said thank you for letting me stay with her (um, usually, I say thank you when I actually leave plus, we're supposed to be friends ! what's with all the formalities?). She later said how she talked to some of her friends and one of them suggested that she make me pay rent. In the end, she said she didn't do it because I was her friend but to act as if she did me a favour by not going with the rent idea really pissed me off. She also said how lucky I was that I was staying with her and not at some hotel. She told me that when she told her mom I was staying with her, her mom said, "Oh, I hope she buys you dinner." I was completely appalled at how she felt she was entitled to being treated like a spoiled princess for letting a friend (who you'd rationally, welcome to stay with you if her or she was visiting unknown territory) stay with her. As for the cab vs. train issue..it should have NEVER been an issue because the train is easy to take, fast, and MUCH CHEAPER. I still don't get why after having lived in Toronto for a year, she had no idea how to go around other than walking, taking the cab or having other friends drive her. She used the excuse that she had paid for the 2-block cab ride a few days earlier for me to spend a ton more money on a cab this time around. Oh, and to emphasize how much she loves to be thanked, she mentioned how disappointed she was in me for not saying thank you when she bought us ice cream which we shared a month ago.

What else? She extremely superficial. She thinks she's fat and ugly even though she's not. We went to this store once and she tried on a pair of jeans which looked really good on her. I told her that, the saleslady told her that, and clearly, the mirror showed her, too. But she told the saleslady that some mirrors make you look thinner than you are...WTF? No...that's what you really look like.

I cannot believe all the money I ended up wasting on her. One day, we were planning on going to little Italy. It was only 15 blocks away so we planned to walk. For some idiotic reason, she decided to wear high heels which she wasn't used to so 2 blocks in, her feet were hurting and she demanded that we catch a cab..there went $10. She bought us gelato at Little Italy (she later slammed me for not thanking her). I paid the entire taxi fare back to downtown. For dinner, we were looking for a restaurant, 10 min. in, she was like, "Okay, if we walk any further, can you get a cab?" To this, I immediately found a restaurant. I suggested we share a meal since I wasn't that hungry and it'd be cheaper. Of course, she took offense and I ended up paying $30 for the both of us.

That same day, we had been planning to go to uptown TO to see some Chinese festival. We took a cab there and the fare ended up being the entire $50. I had exactly that much on cash (I had been planning to pay debit but the machine wasn't working). I asked her if she had any change left for the tip and she looked offended that I even asked. I felt so bad that I couldn't pay the cab driver a really good tip because he had been so helpful in helping us find where the festival was because we didn't even really know where it was. Unfortunately, I had absolutely no cash left to buy anything at the festival and neither did my friend. I made a mention of this which made her go into another rant about how I'm always complaining about money and how I shouldn't since I have a job and she doesn't. OMG...what a [!@#$%^&*]!! I just spent almost $100 on something I shouldn't have. At that point, I think it would have been smarter if I had stayed at the hostel i had stayed in before I met up with her (only $18/night) because I had wasted money on unneeded transportation costs and she made it seem like the amount of money I was saving by staying with her should be spent on her!

Needless to say, I was relieved when I was able to stay with my aunt finally. I tried to keep up a good facade with my ex-friend because I didn't want the last half of my trip being a mess and I think they both believed it). But months later when I came back home and my ex-friend asked for my aunt's # so I could thank her, I gave it to her and made such a big deal about how I should give her the area code too even though they have the same area code. Seriously, this chick likes to argue about the smallest things. At that point, I deleted her off my MSN and never tried contacting her again. When I went to TO a month later to help my sister move to Montreal, I didn't let her know. Actually, I was dragged by my aunt and parents to give her a call which I did and probably shouldn't have. It was too awkward and that was our last official conversation.

Everyone I've told about my hellish TO stay with my friend have all had the impression about what a b*tch she was to me. I told one of my friends who used to be friends with her and I found out that my ex-friend treated a lot of her friends like crap and that's why most aren't even friends with her anymore.

[Tishy]

I have an aunt who is the cruelest person ever. Her son, my cousin did some very bad things. When confronted by my parents, my cousin admitted what he did. However, my aunt refused to believe that her son would do that and called me a liar which almost caused my father to have a heart attack. All ties between the family have been cut.

Occassionaly I will see this aunt and I decided to be the better person a couple years ago and said hello. She asked me who I was. I told her that I was her niece. She got up and walked away. I am so scared because I am afraid that my cousin will someday work at my company as we are in the same field (finance). But I don't like hating people and like to forgive but I have a hard time with forgiving her. I forgave him before her.

[DevotedToAMC]

I would have to say my father....then again he works for insurance so it's no wonder he is mean and spiteful

[Cheap21]

I thought I have met some nasty people but I am glad to say I dont know anyone as evil as those posted in this thread, especially not in my family
