I have no patience for the stupid. None at all.

I'm not talking about the developmentally disabled, or those who are uninformed through no fault of their own. I'm talking about deliberately ignorant, small-minded people who can't connect the opinions they've been spoon-fed with the consequences in the real world, and who don't bother to look around to see if there might possibly be another valid perspective.

Note that I'm not singling out any particular political party or affiliation; there are idiots all over the spectrum, and I have no time or interest in dealing with any of them.

People who can't learn how to properly merge onto the freeway also annoy the hell out of me, but usually engender a response somewhat stronger than an eyeroll.
