The act of blowing something unimportant to the common public out of proportion for a reaction; usually related to trying to get somebody’s specified attention.

Omg did you see how petty Morgan’s post was? It’s almost like she wants a reaction out of it.

Petty

Someone who blows something small way out of proportion, and acts in a childish manner. Such repercussions would be the actions of this person being petty, in that they speak back passive aggressively, or through passive aggressive actions. Such as throwing a traffic cone into the woods for a parking violation they committed.

That man Mason a bitch and is petty as fuck for throwing that traffic cone. Not to mention he ugly as shit.

Petty

Basically someone who uses it to justify what they’ve done without the consequences of the other person usually victim. When the victim does something similar back the person who done you wrong doesn’t like their own medicine so they call the victim petty. That’s what it really means. Petty is not necessarily always bad.

If Person #1 asked person #2 to borrow their pen just to sign in and person #2 asks person #1 where is your pen. Then person number #1 says they left it in the car. Person #2 says you might want to get it it’s apart of your uniform. Next time person #2 ask person #1 for something, person #1 does person #2 the same way. Person #2 will call person #1 petty totally disregarding the fact that they act funny with their pen.
