A lot of things piss me off. Anyone who's seen this website hopefully has figured that out. But NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING pisses me off more than people who are stupid.
First of all, let me point out that there are many different kinds of stupidity. I'm going to focus on the one that makes me the most mad: Pure Mental Stupidity
I'm talking not about people who act stupid, I'm talking about the people who really just don't get it. People who when you ask a simple question, you get a blank stare that's basically saying, "I'm still processing the third syllable of what you just said".
Here's a good example: this past weekend I was eating at my favorite resturaunt, who had recently signed on a college girl on break. This girl was STUPID. I ordered the usual (pancakes and a chocolate shake, a very unusual combination that somehow go along with each other very well). Well, as I was waiting, she procceded to serve drinks to 2 other pairs of customers (college folk themselves), but somehow seemed to be forgetting about my drink. Once she delivered my pancakes, I asked her if she had my milkshake (I knew she hadn't, I was embarassing her). She gave me the classic stupid-person-blank-stare, and then said "Oh! It's coming right up!). Seeing how this was a classic diner, where the kitchen, and the milkshake maker, are in plain sight, I knew she was lying. Funny though, her college buddies got a milkshake, and they came in 15 minutes after me. Well, suffice to say, the milkshake really wasnt that bad, but I still left her a quarter for a tip and walked out in disgust.
Ok, I have a stereotype: a girl brought up by a rich family in which she didnt really have to do anything, got everything she wanted, and basically has sat on her ass all her life=stupid.
Oh, but it gets deeper. On the road, thats where you really find the stupid people. I think everyone can agree with me there.
For example, I saw somebody knitting once. In the fast lane. In rush hour traffic. I smelled blood. Listen lady, knitting is an activity you do in your free time. And driving at 70 miles per hour with cars all around you going just as fast is NOT, under ANY circumstances, FREE TIME.
I'm sure you all have your own stories of highway morons and other acts of pure stupidity sure to make the reasonably intellegent person gag with horror and disgust. Believe me in saying that the only reason I'm stopping here is that it is 2 AM on a sunday. (which actually means its monday, right?)
