    I'm starting to think so too, Lady. I'm surrounded by people who are attending a great university where they could learn absolutely anything they wanted, and make something of themselves and they choose to do absolutely nothing. It's such a waste. And really frustrating when you have to listen to their fantastic drunk stories because they're talking so loudly you can't hear the lecture.




    Not that I'm bitter or anything...
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    Yeah, I love the passing death look lol.. a couple years ago I had this car tailgating me, so I slowed down lol.. and just to qualify this, I don't drive slow, but I don't speed like crazy or anything either.. so eventually this car passes me and it is this little old lady and she gave me the middle finger.. I was so shocked lol...

    I have to say I believe stupidity is an acquired thing... I mean one can be born with a lower IQ or whatever, but that is not what determines stupidity in my mind lol..

    the real stupidity and ignorance that I can't stand is from the people who revel in it, and seem to be proud of being a dumba%&... that just annoys me to no end lol..

    I know that I have done some pretty stupid things in my life, but I don't try to repeat them, and I am not proud of them... and definitely do not boast of my own ignorance and idiocy.. I just can't comprehend why people think being a total fool makes them look attractive and I really can't fathom the people who find total fools attractive... they should be put in insane asylums... that is insanity in my books.. but maybe I am insane...lol

    Well IM sure I had chrismas mince pies in september ( actually yes I did becuase it was before my younger sistr went back to uni ) and that was odd !

If you're that close to me, you are going to hit me". This almost happened yesterday, in fact. It was a bad weather day, too. Lots of rain! That is a dangerous situation. I always say that I am more afraid of other people hitting me than me hitting any of them!

    Thatsactually kind of what you are supposed to do, because if it forces the people behind you to slow down then if you brake suddnly they have a longer stopping time. And if gives you longer to react to whats in front of you.

    Yeah, I know what you're saying! Sadly, I think those of us among these people are few and far between these days. So I guess we will just have to accept it. It is just scary to think that some of them may have some of the "powerful" positions in the world someday!

    That is pretty good!

    No, I would never say that about someone with a lower IQ. I just say it about the idiots in the world who are born with the ability to not care to be anything but stupid.

    the real stupidity and ignorance that I can't stand is from the people who revel in it, and seem to be proud of being a dumba%&... that just annoys me to no end lol..
    AGREED!!

    I know that I have done some pretty stupid things in my life, but I don't try to repeat them, and I am not proud of them... and definitely do not boast of my own ignorance and idiocy..

    Agreed again!

    No, I agree with you. People who revel in ignorance are the bane of my existence. Also, people who revel in...let's say...loose morals (to make me sound like an old person because there are certain words I can't use in this forum). My friends and I like to refer to them as the bleach blonde (not a rake but a ...). Not that I have anything against people who dye their hair blonde, but I think you know what I'm getting at.

    Oh, I love this too.. from when I was at school, and even now.. I love the people who when you ask them what they are into, they say partying and clubbing.. I always want to say "excuse me?" with a shocked and incredulous look.. how could that be your interest and joy in life???

    and drunk stories.. ick.. that is why I have many people who could be friends but I keep on the acquaintance side of the line, and try not to see very often, because I am invariably forced to listen to stories of how drunk they were the past weekend and who they hooked up with.. it is so lame..

    One of the operas I went to this past winter, I took with me a girl who I had only been out with once before, and the whole opera she talked in my ear, random nonsense about partying, and drunk stories about her and her friends.. it was actually quite embarassing as she kept laughing aloud, and this was a sad opera "pelias et melisande" and everyone around us was getting pretty annoyed.. I had to apologize to a couple people seated near us.. and I also had to go back and see it again the next week .. needless to say I go to plays and operas, etc by myself almost always now, unless I know the person isn't going to be a complete ***...

    **shudders** Ugh that's sickening. I can't even take people with me to the movies if it's something I really want to see haha. I don't know I single person I could go with to an opera.

    You know what is really weird? Egg Nog at Easter time! I don't know why that has started here! I'll buy it, though.

    Me neither! But I opt to go alone to most things because nobody I know would have the desire to see any of the things that I would want to see. I went to the movies with this one girl. She made me so mad because she was texting the entire time! Why did she even go then??

    TEXT MESSAGING! There's a topic I'd like to get off my chest!

    Only in some ways, though, because for the most part I'm a fan. I hate excessive text messaging, like when you're hanging out with a friend and they spend the whole time text messaging someone else. All I really want to do is scream PAY ATTENTION TO ME. Though I would never actually do that.

    hahaha. I didn't think the admin would be too pleased if I typed the way I spoke.

    But, yes, sometimes I do think I'm a much older person in my head than actually. I just have no patience for stupidity, amongst other things.

    I can't stand when people do things like this.. it just annoys me to no end.. I don't go to the movies anymore because almost always there is someone who ruins it.. I remember a phone going off at a movie I went to once, and the person did not just turn the phone off,, they answered and whispered to their friend for a minute, it was ridiculous... so now I just watch movies at home..

    But plays, operas, symphonies, etc.. harder to do.. lol.. so I mostly go alone.. which sometimes feels strange in the intermission standing there by yourself haha.. oh well .. I don't mind..

    I save the bonehead friends for concerts, etc. lol..

    I still go to the movies, I won't lie. I love theatres. For plays I have one friend that gets it. But I can't even take my other friends to concerts because they don't listen to the same music as me

    yeah I have a few friends who listen to the same music.. not many, but enough that I don't go to concerts alone... most people seem to be obsessed with hip hop/rap/ some form of terrible music in my opinion haha.. silly people..

    Yeah, I usually just don't end up going. I don't know what they're listening to, but it's just not good.
