Some people who annoy me - Part 1 of ?
Walking around living life, it's pretty much inevitable that you run into some assholes every once in a while. These assholes, however, are not one-size-fits-all - quite the contrary actually. One way I deal with them is to give them names and put them into categories. Here are a few I've come in contact with recently.
1. Elevator Assholes: People who have personal conversations in elevators in front of other people. Some conversations are just meant to be personal. Example: yesterday someone in my building thought it was a good time to talk about his bonus and income level in front of me in our elevator. Full Disclosure: He made more than me, but I still hate this kind of asshole.
2. Workout/Weight loss Assholes: People who talk about their workout and any of the following things in public: how much weight they can lift, how much weight they have recently lost or gained, or how they are changing up their workout routine. If you are one of the these people, please take notice of this....no one wants to hear about how you eat, workout, and lose weight. it's boring.
3. Pseudo-Intellectual Assholes: I really hate people that do everything they can to make themselves look smarter than everyone they come in contact with. Although they have many weapons in their arsenal - obscure literary or film references are often their top choice. If I know you're not a sports fan, I'm not going to run my mouth about how fast Vince Coleman used to be and how the old artificial turf probably made him even faster. In return, all I ask is that you don't talk about random independent films like everyone should know what you're talking about.
4. Hyperactive, Super-Social Assholes: There are some people who just can't sit still - they claim they always have to be "active or doing something." Even though I don't agree with this personally, to each his own. All I ask is that you don't act like I've got a problem because I like to sit on my ass every once in a while....or because I actually enjoy being alone every once in a while. Everything in this world doesn't have to be a social event. Sometimes being alone can be a great thing.
Stay tuned for more assholes.
