Do you know any Teflon person(s) the kind of person that no matter how you try to insult them '-nothing sticks, just bounces off?

Prime Minister Jean Cretin was like that -known as 'Mr Teflon man'.

    You need a comma after the first clause in your question, after the word "person(s)".

  • "Yes" ... but it is against the ToS to use their name.

  • And what makes you think it's a her?  :)   Actually, I'm positive that that person would consider it a compliment.

  • Hmmm... no, I don't.
    I think there's plenty of people who get good at pretending to be unaffected - like politicians, salespeople, judges, people who have to deal with other people a lot. Pretending to be unaffected is one of the best defences; it robs the offender of the satisfaction of feeling that the jibe worked.
    Others get really good at the repartie, dishing it back. Some think that's hilarious; for others, it's cringe-worthy to listen.

    To truly not be offended, I think a person would have to be strongly autistic or demented, neurologically unable to read the emotions and intentions of others.

    Just because someone can "read" the emotions and intentions of others, doesn't mean their affected by them.

      Wait, are we talking about the same Trump?  How about the one who takes every iota of opinion that doesn't lionize him as a glaring insult and a reason to hurl childish venom at its author?
