Aww, he think's he's people...

Sometimes the complete and utter stupidity of people leaves me speechless. Not ignorance, not naivety, but stupidity. I'm typically a very talkative and obnoxious individual so when I am left without words you know that I'm either extremely angry or I simply don't have the energy to respond to your stupidity and/or overall bitchyness.

Why are people stupid?

This question plagues me every day, almost every hour.

Now, I'm going to preface this by admitting (the Earth shattering admission here) that I… wait for it ...don't know everything. (This is the part where you give up on life because nothing makes sense anymore.)

In fact, I'm not even sure that I know much of anything. The older I get and the more I learn the less I feel comfortable or solid in my understanding of the world. I am unnerved by knowledge.

…I'm also terrible at grammar.

However, some people don't have this struggle. In fact, I am convinced that the most complex struggle that the majority of people I run across on a daily basis is how to make the buzzing noise stop in the empty sphere of fat that resides between their ears.

But it's not even the people who are ignorant. They realize that they're ignorant because they simply don't try. The kind of irritatingly stupid I'm referring to is the kind of dumb that thinks it's smart. The kind of brain numbing, oh-my-god-how-are-you-able-to-breath-and-walk-at-the-same-time kind of simplistic that thinks it's people.

It's like when you see little dogs that wear sweaters and sits at the table because it's psychotic owner wasn't hugged as a child. The dog thinks it's people.

Awww, he thinks he's people. 

This is the kind of stupid to which I mean, the kind where the idiots think they're people.

I'm not questioning their humanity, I'm not questioning their ability to love and help others. I just simply don't understand how they can ask such dumb questions and then wait for someone to tell them that they're right. Because they're not right. They're hardly ever right.

Lord, grant me the serenity to accept that this person I cannot change. (Paraphrase)

This is Hypocrisy.
