People That Aggravate Me

I get along well with most people; however, there are some with whom I have no desire to get along.

Those who judge a person solely upon their physical appearance, financial situation, and/or social status.

Parents that do not teach their children manners and respect for others or fail to instill in them the concepts of self discipline and responsibility.

People that base their opinions upon hearsay, prejudice, unsubstantiated claims or their imagination.

Self-centered individuals whose verbal and written comments confirm that they suffer from the I-Syndrome - sentences inundated with the personal pronouns I, me, my, myself and mine.

People too lazy and inconsiderate to place an emptied shopping cart in the area provided in the parking lot.

Cell phone addicts unable to restrain themselves from texting, tweeting, gaming or surfing the internet for longer than 15 minutes at a time.

People who criticize those who believe that a book, such as the Bible, Talmud, Koran or Book of Mormon is sacred and divinely inspired, without first reading the book. One should not criticize something without first finding out for sure what it is that one is criticizing.

Those who profess to believe that a book, such as the Bible, Talmud, Koran or Book of Mormon is sacred and divinely inspired, yet have never actually read the book. One should not believe in something without first finding out for sure what it is that one professes to believe.

Christine Hayton That's quite a list and although I agree to a point, I have to hold off on a 100% endorsement. I think sometimes we judge our fellow man to quickly and some of the things you describe can be a manifestation of personal insecurity, ignorance, or fear. Worst of all, our schools are turning out students who can't read.

Still, I do agree that many times it is simply laziness, ego, and irresponsibility that create these irritations. Like you - they tax my intelligence and my patience.

Christine,

Since every person is unique and a product of their personal upbringing and life experiences, I would be very surprised if anyone ever agreed with my beliefs and idiosyncrasies 100%.

As always, your thoughtful and intelligent critique of the blog post is welcome and appreciated. Thank you for expending the time and effort to follow my blog and often sharing your valued opinion.
