I hate stupid people
 
Really, I do.

People who cannot make leaps from one logical point to another irritate me to all holy hell. Especially when they remain stubbornly convinced that they are correct, and refuse to digest reason.

Am I impatient? Unjustly intolerant? An undeservedly arrogant bitch? Perhaps.

I just fail to understand WHY various concepts are difficult for people to grasp, and I want to repeatedly bang my head against the wall when trying to discourse with one of these, shall we say, logically challenged.

There is no point to this post really, I just felt like venting. I had begun to twitch alarmingly in frustration, and needed an outlet.

A stupid person whistled at me yesterday.
I'm in therapy now.

I think you need to stop worrying about "the other person" so much. The older you get, the less concerned you are with "the other person"...life's too short to be worring about other people. Worry about yourself first.

It's the stupid hypocrites who get me; they irritate me, but at the same time I love playing with them.

The ones who moan about how all immgrants are here to steal our jobs, then annoounce that all immigrants want to just claim benefits and not work.

The ones who moan about immigrants then announce that they themselves would like to move to Australia or Spain.

The ones who spend an age telling you that all conventional science is bunk and not to be trusted, then tell you that their alternative therapies and methods are 'scientifically proven'.

And of course the ones who quote bits of the Bible at you but ignore the bit of the Bible right next to it because it's an inconvenience to them.

Well of course - hypocrisy is synonymous with stupidity. Which is synonymous with laziness.

Forget hating stupid people - I hate everyone.

Here Here! Right on brother..All the people you mentioned are the stupid people i hate

truncated 04.13.2006 02:48 PM

The worst of it is, I can't seem to help conversing with these people. I KNOW better, so why do I continue to try to impress points?

Stubborness is even WORSE than stupidity.

Why can't people just do what I want them to do, when I want them to do it? Jesus.

Grete 04.13.2006 02:52 PM

trying to argue with stupid people is about the worst. have you ever done it? trying to put your point accross is seemingly impossible and you can just see the blankness behind the eyes.

try working with the people i work with.

Glice 04.13.2006 03:23 PM

I'm never wrong for any reason, so if it's any help, I feel the same pain as you Truncated, but, worse than you - I'M NEVER WRONG.

I was just hanging around that "Do You Believe in Leaking" thread, and I thought I was going to blow an artery.

I have only myself to blame. I seriously do need to get off this board for a while. I might even work at work.

jon boy 04.13.2006 03:28 PM

if you want sympathy ask marleypumkin he is dolling out by the bucket full.

jon boy 04.13.2006 03:31 PM

what are you nuts! work is not for work. work is for sleep, free stationary, free postage and not paying for the internet like you have to at home.

only drawback is pretending to look busy and dealing with people who mentally retarded.

Good point. But you get your fair share of mentally retarded people online, too.

Just had to share this message that accompanied some reputation points -

(and I'm not ridiculing the person who sent it, I think it's funny)

"actually i just want to see if i can change the red bars, thanks"

Haha!

What's the matter with it? I rather like its rosy hue.

jon boy 04.13.2006 03:45 PM

this is indeed true. point taken.

i have no idea what the perfect job would be. i had what i thought was going to be it, but sadly it turned quite quickly into a nightmare.

Iain 04.13.2006 03:50 PM

Huh...I don't even get free postage. Well, not as far as I know. Sometimes you can peel stamps from the front of envelopes on the frequent occaisions that the post office forget to stamp them.

Also, I managed to score the architectural plans for the floor of the building I work in. Some men came by to fiddle with some electrical points and left the plans behind... so I took them. They didn't come back looking for them so I'm calling finders keepers on them.

now it will be earier for you to plan a robbery or plant a bomb, if you were so inclined.

Marleypumpkin, when things get especially rough, remember, you could have a harelip. Now that would be tragic.

 

Glice 04.14.2006 08:45 AM

I used to go out with a girl with a harelip. Not as severe as the above, I might add. She also had a lisp. And was northern. Tip to girls: lisps and northern accents are unspeakably sexy.

Yes, that would fucking suck. Cool, now everytime I start to get upset on this board, I'll think of that photo & remember how lucky I am not to have a harelip. Eww

We shall all now collectively mourn our inherent inferiority. Although, my lazy eye seems to work for me.

A gentleman doesn't talk about such things. Well, I would, but I know she was into sonic youth and I'm not sure if she's a lurker.

Lazy eyes do it for me as well. If you could throw in gout or some such then I'd be all yours.

noumenal 04.14.2006 08:57 AM

I might. I never checked the map to see. Sorry for any misspelled words.

One of my legs is a millimeter shorter than the other - does that count?

Glice 04.14.2006 09:03 AM

There's a story I read a while ago. A chap goes into a butchers every day. He has a cane. He leaves the cane in the shop while he goes to the toilet. Every day. During his toilet breaks, the butcher, who finds him incredibly annoying, shaves a milllimetre off of his cane. After a few months, the chaps back is bent to one side, because he never noticed the cane getting shorter.

I'm not sure what the point is, or why I was saying it, but there. There are some words.

Glice 04.14.2006 09:03 AM

Um... cock. Hehe.
