Why DO people find it acceptable to be rude?

Asked by starshine (576points) March 14th, 2010

I, personally, have never understood the appeal of being rude to others. Short responses, glares, snippitiness, etc… Just unacceptable.
Why do people feel they can act this way?
Have you ever been treated really rudely? Why/What happened?
Have you ever treated someone rudely? Why?
If you treat people rudely, why do you? Is it like a power trip or something?
