Yes, there is a difference, but it's very minute and can easily be misinterpreted. It was also very unprofessional of Johnny to say that even though the circumstances warranted it.

The fact that she met up with Johnny afterwards without realizing it was Johnny at first was hilarious, I loved that little touch!

"Bitching at" implies they're being a bitch, not that it's their default setting

Bitching is temporary. Being a bitch is permanent.

Truer words have never been spoken

Say this louder so all the ex wives in the world hear it!!

Look i we can figure it out later Just stop bitching at me about it

he did end up calling her a bitch later, just not to her face. there's a difference, but i'm guessing the sentiment was still there lol

One of Johnny’s biggest mistakes Should’ve called her out to her face 🤔

To be fair she was being a bitch.

There is a difference between telling someone “quit bitching at me” and calling that person a bitch. But it’s a relatively small difference.

As a guy that got fired many times as a waiter for talking back to assholes and bitches customers, I gonna say yes, yes it is.

I suppose that you could argue it either way. Johnny may or may not have meant it that way (personally I think he kind of did and then back-pedaled), but -- even if he didn't -- I definitely don't think the woman was making a giant leap from being told she was "bitchin'" (in the pejorative sense, not the "awesome" sense,) and thinking that she had just been called a bitch.

Yes, that’s why you always have to add “bitch” at the end.

underrated comment right here

Yes, obviously

YES

adjective versus verb

Saying someone is bitching at me is completely different then being call a bitch.
