A "yeah, whatever" is probably better than your crazy guy routine. "Hell yeah, I'm a..." only confuses and thus angers the aggressor.
Using this move? I wouldn't say you're a coward, but you certainly sound like a dumbass.

It wasn't meant to be self defense. So yes, the half assed instigation could be right, but I consider it more of a counter offensive type thing. The people calling me a faggot wouldn't and couldn't say anything else to me after I just shut down their attempt to bully me. I took the bullets out of their gun so to speak. They didn't have anything else to say after that because the first words they say are what they think will be the most hardcore. Maybe it wasn't the best way, but for me it was always the most effective.
"Yeah, whatever" seems a shit ton more cowardly than anything. Whenever I tried that they always kept coming back and starting shit. Always. You can't say "yeah, whatever" without looking like a push over.
