If it was somehow possible to anonymously show up with a group of people with whom you hang out, insult people without them knowing your identity and do so just to protect your reputation, I would gladly call someone a little bitch for doing so.
I'm more than willing to pop off in real life. The last time I remember saying something similar was when someone was being a dick to a cashier at my local Dollar General, and I told them that there was no need to be a dick in a fairly disdainful tone. It got me a dirty look from the guy and a few cracked jokes with the cashier after the guy left.
I'm not a tough guy for doing so, but I've never had anyone try to take a swing at me over it or anything of the sort. It's not that often that you run into people engaging in the kind of truly shitty behavior that would cause me to call them on it, when you're not on the Internet. But I'm not generally afraid of telling people that they're being dickheads or being a bitch.
I'll admit that I ramp it up a bit for trolling purposes, like when I was calling Zippo a piece of shit and goading him into anger. But even that is something that I've been willing to do with folks in the past, truth be told. Though to be fair, in most of those situations it was someone I knew couldn't take a swing at me for various reasons. Still, it's not something that I'd particularly shy away from if I had to put up with someone who was that big of a consistent dipshit.
Feel free to believe me or not, I don't give a shit. I'm more than willing to call people out on being complete shitheads. If you really want me to give you the annotated edition of each of my uses of 'little bitch,' I can gladly go ahead and break it down. But I'm not here to win arguments. I'm just here to have fun and throw myself into arguments, win or lose. If calling someone a little bitch when they're being one makes my arguments less sound, I'm okay with that.
But I am what I am, like it or lump it. I don't always think I'm right and I'm willing to apologize when I'm not, but I'm also not terribly afraid of confrontation when someone's engaging in shitty behavior, and that's trebly true when I'm somewhere that I consider to be part of a community that I'm in, like the Vault. Them's just the facts.
Well, I can't say that I expected you to own it. That's okay, I was kind of hoping that would be the case

Since you won't follow your advice, we're going to play a little game. Essentially, I'm going to bring the potential of getting your ass kicked into your Vault experience. Here's how it will work:
From this point forward, any time I feel you have made another ITG post, I will roll a 20-sided die.
2-20: Nothing happens
1: you ran into that one guy in 20 who would love nothing more than to crank that shit to 11. Roll 1d20 for damage.
Damage Roll20: You beat the ever living piss out of dude. The person you ITG'd gets squelched for 1 week.
19: You won the fight. The person you ITG'd gets herpaderped for 1 week.
18: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Nothing happens.
17: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Nothing happens.
16: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Nothing happens.
15: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Nothing happens.
14: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Nothing happens.
13: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Nothing happens.
12: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Bonus roll next time.
11: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Bonus roll next time.
10: Fight turned out to be a bunch of chest-puffing. Bonus roll next time.
9: Tied fight. Bonus roll next time.
8: You lost the fight, but held your own. Your title color and theme change to pink and pony, respectively, for one week.
7: You lost the fight. The person you ITG'd may claim your title if they so desire.
6: Dude beat the shit out of you, but nothing broken and no hospital visit. Your black eye and swollen jaw will make you look funny, and may make communication difficult, for a week.
5: Dude beat the shit out of you, you have a couple cracked ribs. This makes it painful to talk, so you will be post-throttled - limited to 1 post per day - for a week.
4: Dude gave you a good beating and broke many things, including your jaw. Your account will be squelched for a week.
3: Dude knocked you the fuck out and you have swelling on your brain. Your account will be banned for 1 week while you recover.
2: Dude stabbed you a couple times, you lost a lot of blood but survived. Your post count will be reset.
1: Dude pulled out a gun and killed you. Your Vault account will be choned.
Bonus rolls are used on the first roll of the next time.
Damage rolls under 8 are cumulative, where applicable. For example, if your damage roll is a 5, you will be:
- post throttled
- your black eye and swollen jaw will make you look funny and may make communication difficult for a week
- the person you ITG'd may claim your title, if they so desire
- if they do not desire to take it, it will be pink and pony for a week
I'll post the rolls if/when they happen.
