How do you handle Criticism?

I don't take criticism well from certain individuals. Some people seem to live solely to criticize others while making themselves out to be superior...which annoys the hell out of me.

For the most part, I take criticism well...though I tend to completely ignore people who offer criticism that isn't constructive. Won't even acknowledge their existence.
 
was on the virge of strangling one of my tutors today as he managed to pic holes in something that took me 3 weeks to put together. i was like 'Fine Fukc you ya sas bandit go Fukc yourself' (correct the spelling of sas and Fukc) the someone insulted me so i like flipped out and nearly beat them to death...well not physically but i could see myself beating them in my mind.
 
I don't like criticism, but then again, who does? I can deal with constructive criticism and stuff because I know it's good for me, but that doesn't mean I like it. However, I HATE it when people go like "YOUR (insert whatever is being criticized) SUCKS!!" because it is not helpful and is only meant to hurt.
 
I like criricism and more so the people who do it cause i usually just take it all in and then fire something back at them and that usually leaves them: 1. Wondering what happened. 2. Annoyed and in a rage against me. But either way i tend to be a cocky person when i get certain criticism sent towards me.

Also i don't really care what people say about me, i suffer from "mild depression" which often get's me down so i don't really like myself anyway.
 
It kills me inside! But I pretend that I am accepting the offered criticism in a nonchalant way before running home to cry myself to sleep.
 
I don't mind criticism as long as it is used constructively in a way where your helping me because I find the information to be useful but if your going to be an ass and just just say something rude or hurtful like "that's ugly", "you suck", or "I am better than you" then I will most likely get pissed off and shut myself down completely until it passes over.
 
Well I can't really handle it.At that time I get angry or I wanna cry,I wanna beat the one who said it.
You know,mixed emotions.
 
I just ignore most of the criticism that comes my way, mostly because they're not constructive and they're the type that VoN mentioned.

Seriously, constructive criticism is good and most of the time the people that criticize this way are really nice, giving you leeway to explain your actions, why you did this or that, and offer some advice or some 'fix' to your work. That way, the whole crit turns out to be a rather pleasant and intelligent conversation rather than an all-out bash fest.
I also hate it when people compare your work to someone else's or your attitude to someone else's. I'm not him/her, why compare me to him/her?
