I think it's interesting that you talk about personalities as if they're fixed and unchanging things outside our control. You talk about your hypothetical 'rude person' as if being rude is something that happened to him, not something he is.
You are who you are. You choose how to act and that defines you as an individual. So far as I can figure it, that's really all there is to the discussion.
