Ok, who is with me? Who is so tired of stupid people that they sometimes don't want to leave their house? It seems I encounter them everywhere I go and I don't know how much more I can take!!
Today as I walked up to my car in a store's parking lot the lady next to me had her car running so I stood back waiting for her to back out before I approached my car. Trying to be courteous and let them go without making them wait for me to buckle my toddler into her booster seat. So I stand there looking at them waiting and no movement. So I assumed they were just sitting in the car waiting for someone or looking over a reciept or something and weren't going to back out. They saw me waiting for them as well. So, I go and buckle my toddler into her booster seat. Now this isn't a simple process that takes just a second. I have to put her in, then push both buckles into the middle receiver and clip the straps together. Well just as I finished buckling her in the passenger of the car opens her door and says "Can you close your door hun." and then proceeds to close her car door before I can even say anything back.
....
Really? I waited on the sidewalk for you to back out. You had your chance before having to wait for me to buckle my daughter in. And then you have the nerve to open your door and yell this to me?
Maybe I am overreacting but seriously I am so annoyed by this. It wasn't as if I didn't give them a chance to back out and it wasn't as if I was fiddle farting around as I had my door open.
Anyone else have a stupid people sighting or experience today?

You too? I am really tired of stupid people as well. Maybe they think I am stupid though. I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt but sometimes it is just so hard to do. I see lots of stupid people and think I am glad that I am not like that.

Yeah, you went through something. I know just how irritating that feels. As for me though, it depends on my mood. Some days I can tolerate stupidity. Some days I wish I could grab that person by the hair.
But you know what, after the anger subsides I ask myself how many times I also probably irritated someone with my stupidity. I feel guilty for it as well. I guess all of us have some tendencies to be insensitive too.
But I hope it won't happen again to you. Have a nice day!
