Stupid People

Bottom line. People are stupid. Even if you already know this, read on anyway because I'm a whore for attention. There's just no way around it. A day just fuckin' can't go by without having to waste your time tolerating stupidity. In my dorms there are two elevators for the 13 floors. As myself and two other people are riding it down to the ground floor to go outside, the person I didn't know leaned over and spit his absolutely rancid 'chew juice' into the corner of the elevator. Now usually in public I'm at least quietly disapproving of such pathetic acts but this was an occurance in which I had not a good day, so I blurted out: "Grow a fuckin' brain dude, wait six seconds then take eight steps and you're outside." "Why?" "You live in this building don't you?" "...Yeah." "So we use these elevators a dozen times a day and you're fucking them up." "So?" He didn't even defend himself, just had this ignorant look. I won't even go into my rants about people who chew or smoke...as...er...uh...I don't want to be fired but still I'm sure at least they have actual sense and manners towards those around them. SO DON'T SPIT ON THE GROUND INSIDE AND DON'T BLOW SMOKE INTO OTHERS FACES OR ASH ON THEM. It's not hard, just have to have an IQ higher than a hedgehog and the social skills to back it up. Oh- and you smokers out there. If I hear one more person take a drag and say 'you know I really should quit.' I may not be able to restrain myself from beating them over the head with their own arm. Now in that same day and I'm walking outside and hear some person talking to his freind obnoxiously with the grammar of a four year old. When it comes to spoken word, I do have standards but they are simple. At least try to sound like you have a brain and use it. You don't need to speak with long or aloof sounding words. What kind of obsequious tenebrific ass would have such veraciousness to perorate out such pleonastic grandiloquent crap? So as he passes me he says something like 'dude, like, fuckin a man, it totally sucked.' I wanted to run up to him, shake him by the shoulders and scream at him 'YOU JUST SAID FUCK YOU HALFWIT WHY ON EARTH CANT YOU JUST SAY ASS!?!?" then tackle him and stab him 23 times with an unsharpened golf pencil. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...violence........er I mean...uh...moving on. I love music. It's an often accurate means for gauging your mood (meaning don't bother me if I'm listening to Mushroom Hed). Even there, stupid people cannot be avoided. Living in a dorm with a bunch of immature 18 year olds is not usually a good thing, but most of the time I can manage. I can take loud noises. I am fine with music of any type being blasted until my ears explode in a bloody painful mess. What I can't stand are the jackasses out there that don't REALLY listen to it. You know what I mean? I know you don't and just think I'm an idiot, so I think I'll go ahead and explain. If you have ever used the term "Dude, this shit bounces!" please find a large moving vehicle and jump in front of it now. What I'm talking about are the people that seem to listen to music loud so everyone will hear it, and thusly think they are cool. There are so many tell tale signs of a person such as this. They listen to music that you hear on the radio at least once every ten seconds or so. They have sub woofers that will easily go below the range of human hearing, because they just have to mess up your innards when they can. They listen to the SAME MUSIC EVERY DAY. THEY NEVER FINISH THE SONGS, BUT JUST SKIP ABRUPTLY TO ANOTHER ONE WHEN THEY GET BORED. THEY-AHHHHH-okay okay deep breath. Another thing I've noticed that shows this is they play these loud obnoxious rap songs but when they're alone they quietly play country and the Eagles. GOD people are stupid. Have I mentioned that already? I guess the point is (and shut up, yes I have one, smartass), that stupid people surround us. They find ways to creep into every situation of our lives, no matter how safe we think we are. So the key is tolerance...or violence... I forget which... maybe the tolerance of violence? Violently tolerant? okay, I've stopped making sense so, see y'all next time 'round. At least try to have a stupid free week. I'm Dustin Meehan Please argue with me. |
