Am I allowed to say “God bless you!” as sarcasm when some random guy tells me “F*** you.”
I was walking on the street the other day, in NYC, and crossing the crosswalk and a guy was crossing from the opposite side, holding his Hans with his daughter’s, and then suddenly shouted at me “MOVE THE F*** OVER.”
I just ignored him because I feared I could be shot if I said “Go F*** yourself.” Anyone could carry a gun to intimidate people, and I do hear gunshots time to time in my neighborhood.
To keep myself not intimidated and defeated, i would like to say something to him if it’s possible., but I don't want to say anything that could provoke him. Can I say “God bless you!”?
I know probably just ignoring him would be the ideal answer, but anger lingers on me afterwards. I want to say something to him, but not something nasty.
