I can’t stand stupid people!
No. Wait. I should use a tougher and better defined word.
I can’t stand INANE people!! (No, it’s not a spelling error, check your dictionary.)
I guess I should further explain my definition of inane.
1st, I’m not stating that I am smart nor am I saying others are stupid. My inane is reserved for only a special group of people. The elite of the dumb I would say; sure intelligence has a part to play in it but for the most part it’s the personality.
These people are not only DUMB, but they are hard-up on whatever point they think others did wrong. Not only that, when people try to explain to them about what their queries was first about; they tend to write it off as EXCUSES, therefore bring it upon themselves to not only interrupt (rudely) but appear angry and frustrated about the “Excuses” their listening to.
Oddly, when it seems most prudent to stay calm and hear them gabble away while snickering inwardly at their pathetic attempt at showmanship, I tend to lose my patience and get seriously annoyed. Why? I guess it’s just a weakness of mine.
Some pointers that I think people should take note, if you’re in RP.
First: Ask a question, but be ready to LISTEN for the answer.
Second: Ask a valid question, never be god-damned OBSTINATE about what you think is right.
Third: It’s laughable when the point that you’re fighting so HARD to bring through is WRONG. So never stick wholeheartedly to an “answer”; be Flexible.
Fourth: Never ever interrupt a person explaining your doubts.
Fifth: If you do interrupt, be sure that your point is definite and absolute; to not seem well, inane.
Yawn…
