I never really blow up at people. When someone acts an ass, I just stand up really straight and bend my neck down so I look them as close as I can to eye level. The average height of southwestern Pennsylvanians is less than me, so this is a kind of unconscious "I'm bigger than you, asshole." intimidation technique.

This done, I say to them in a normal tone, "Whasamatta wityou?". Naturally, this is done in my New York accent. A puzzled look, elbows bent 90 degrees, hands pointing towards the person I'm talking to (so they KNOW I'm talking to them) just complete the deal.

Usually, my height and the accent are enough to freak anyone out such that they scurry away. Amplifications of the two have yet to result in failure in even the toughest of scenarios. Living among people that never dwelled 20 miles beyond where they were born has its advantages.
