> How much choice do you think prickly people have in who they become?

It boils down to if you think being an asshole is congenital and impervious to efforts at self-improvement.

Personally I think we humans all hunger for love and acceptance, and a generous dose of love is Alchemical and can transmutate the lead of assholeness to the gold of beautiful conduct. So next time you see an asshole, give them a hug.

> I have little choice

As a last resort, you could always self-isolate. :}
