Q: Some people enjoy making other people upset. If it seems like your friend often pushes your buttons just for fun, then don't give her the satisfaction of seeing you get flustered. Stay as calm as possible and address her in a calm, even voice. Using assertive body language may also help. Try to stand tall, face your friend, and keep your arms loose at your sides. Insults put the focus on you, but you can turn them around by responding with a question. If your friend comes at you with an insult, then do not get upset. Instead, ask a question to return the focus to your friend.  For example, if your friend says something like, “You are so dumb,” then you can respond with something like, “If you talk to me that way, then I am going to leave. Is that what you want?” If your friend has a habit of bossing you around, then correct her. Tell her how you want her to address you instead. For example, if your friend says, “Go get me a can of soda,” then you could correct her by saying, “I think you mean 'Can I please have a can of soda?'”  If your friend refuses to address you in a respectful manner, then refuse to do what she wants. Remember that you have the right to be treated with respect. If your attempts to address your friend's bossiness don't work, then you may need to cut back on the amount of time that you spend with her to show that you are not willing to put up with this treatment. Try limiting your time with this friend to one outing per week, or less if she is treating you really badly.  If your friend asks why you don't want to spend as much time with her, then you can say something like, “I don't like the way you treat me. Until that changes, I can't see you as much as I used to.”
A: Stay calm. Respond to insults with questions. Explain how you would like to be addressed. Cut down on the amount of time you spend together.

Q: Mix together 2 cups (470 ml) of corn syrup and 1 cup (240 ml) of warm water in a large mixing bowl. Pour in 10 teaspoons (49 ml) of red food coloring and a few drops each of blue and yellow coloring. Stir in 1 tablespoon (7.5 g) of cornstarch at a time until it’s thoroughly mixed, and keep adding it until there are 10 tablespoons (75 g) in your mixture.  This style of fake blood is somewhat sticky so it will stay in place when you apply it, but it won’t run as easily. Try adding cocoa powder if you want your fake blood to look darker. Use less cornstarch if you want the fake blood to flow easier. This recipe is edible so you can apply it in or around someone's mouth. Pour 10 teaspoons (49 ml) of red food coloring and 1 cup (240 ml) of light corn syrup in a mixing bowl. Combine the corn syrup with 1-2 heading spoonfuls of creamy peanut butter and stir the mixture together until it’s thoroughly mixed. Apply the fake blood by hand and rub it on a surface to make it look like it’s coated in a thin layer of blood.  If you want to make the blood look like it’s dried up or scab-like, try using chunky peanut butter instead. Keep in mind that it may be harder to work with and apply. This fake blood is edible so it's safe to use near someone's mouth. Pour your fake blood mixture into small syringe or dropper bottle so you can easily apply it. Squeeze the bottle or depress the syringe slightly so a small amount of blood comes out. Let the fake blood drip down the surface you’re applying it to so it looks realistic when it’s on camera.  Be careful not to get the fake blood in anyone’s eyes since it could cause irritation. You can apply fake blood in and around a person’s mouth if you need to as long as you’re using an edible recipe. Dip the corner of a scouring pad or sponge in your fake blood and dab it onto the surface you’re applying it to. You can either lift and dab the blood to apply it in a pattern or you can wipe the blood across a surface to make smears. Try a few different techniques on the surface to see what works best when you apply it. Test different applicators to see what textures they make with the fake blood. For example, a steel wool pad will cause the blood to bead up while wiping it with a sponge will look flatter. Attach a syringe to the end of a thin plastic tube and fill the syringe with your fake blood. Put the other end of the tube next to where you want the blood to spray so it’s off camera, and tape it in place. During your shot, have a person off-camera press down on the syringe slowly so the blood squirts out of the tube.  This method works great to simulate blood squirting out of a pulsing wound. This may not work if your fake blood has a thicker consistency. Pour your fake blood into an empty spray bottle and make sure the nozzle is on. Pull the handle on your spray bottle to create a mist of blood that spatters on the surface you’re applying it to. Apply as much or as little fake blood with the spray bottle as you need to for the scene you’re shooting. You won’t be able to spray fake blood that has a thick consistency.
A:
Combine corn syrup, food coloring, and cornstarch to make realistic blood. Use creamy peanut butter and corn syrup to make things look bloodstained. Apply the fake blood with a syringe or dropper to make it seem authentic. Smear the fake blood with a sponge or scouring pad. Make blood squirt using plastic tubing and a syringe. Create blood spatter with a spray bottle.
