As a particular example, in the movie "Back to the Future", the villian Biff Tannen most definitely picks on the lead character's father George McFly, and at the same time rips on him for his behavior. | |

The "pickers" never ripped on me. I got ripped on much later when my performance in Army Basic Training didn't match the Drill Sergeant's demands and expectations. | |
