These are the kind of people who dish it out, but can't take it. If it's very blatant in my personal circle, I'll call them on it.

They're narcissists. Don't bother getting into their argument trap, they don't listen, they play the victim and they never take responsibility.
Here's a goodie: "Just being honest honey, but you didn't do anything early Saturday morning so why are you upset I didn't do anything Monday morning for getting the kids to school on time. You're the bad one, that's the truth. [hehheh, I showed you!]"

It's like people who always have to play "devil's advocate." They get off on saying mean or offensive things, but then duck and cover when called on it. "I'm just playing devil's advocate!" "I'm just being honest!"
It's possible to be clear, honest, and kind.

I hate people who pussyfoot around where I have to guess what the hell they mean. I am direct and I like directness in return.
People who pride themselves on being brutally honest enjoy the brutality as much as the honesty, if not more.
