Not the only thing that knocks people down.
Not everybody who says they got up after being knocked down really got up. Some were always helped up by an authority figure in life.

Some people get knocked down by both life and other people.
The girl got knocked down by the other girl at the bar who didn't apologize for it afterwards. She thought it was insensitive and mean for someone to knock her down and not apologize for it after life had just got done knocking her down.

A lot of times a guy/girl who can talk some serious shit. To think it doesn't take talent to talk some serious shit would be underestimation.
Rapper- I catch you wearing pajamas again boy I send my guided missiles at you have you shittin and pissin in em, I even fucked your mama one time before you were born and I started dissin em (you think your daddy is really your father boy?). We're gonna cut everything you love up in little fuckin pieces with a machete and feed it to my pit bull if you ain't fuckin with us, we're gonna come back for you and we're gonna find you while you duckin from us.

Guy who bought CD- How did this guy know I still wear pajamas, this isn't good.

Guy's friend- That guy can talk some serious shit.

Someone who rejects the term outsider and even a few of the people who use it to describe somebody who doesn't see things their way (such as everybody has to be exactly the same underneath the skin).
The intraverts thought the extrovert was an outsider, someone who would never be in line with their bullshit rules and a life they considered a game for everybody. Really, saying outsider was another way to say he's an asshole they wanted dead, but hadn't found a way to kill and make it seem legit yet. The extrovert didn't know where all the gangsters and hustlers had come from, since quite a few of them were dorks growing up.

Adjustment 

I'm trying hard to think of you as a gangster now, I dont want to underestimate you. It's an adjustment, you really were a dork 25 to 30 years ago, but some people believe that people change, and you try and adjust to how their beliefs are impacting everything and everyone around them, as they become their evil alter ego and are no longer who they were growing up any more.

The dispossessed 

People you would think have nothing left. What somebody has doesn't have to be expensive or valuable financially to be held sacred by a person or group you're trying to take something from, even if most things taken tend to be out of financial interest rather than for any other reason. It is the belief of some that if you take that which someone or a group of people holds most dear, you've taken everything, you've taken what they're made of. It's like walking up behind someone and stabbing them in the heart, or between the ribs.
He/she would live off the land of the dispossessed, make what was theirs his/hers, try to make their lives his/hers, might even try to become him/her/them. The desperate ones who tried to dispossess the others had always been imitating somebody else, they knew how to imitate for a living, they were good at it.

Blind optimism 

Thinking everyone you like will also be someone you can trust would be blind optimism, and at some point reality shows somebody that not everybody you like will be someone you also trust.
The charming guy/girl was hard not to like, but after years of being around this guy/girl, the blind optimism that started the relationship (friendship) ended up getting a bit more realistic when one party knew they'd never fully trust the other, attempt after attempt at trusting the other party had shown them that. When life was not a party, the people they liked the most were seldom the ones they could continue to trust.
