I hear them all the time. Small, little comments that make me say "Wow, are people getting dumber by the day or am I just going crazy?". These things don't have to be world-altering acts of war or anything, no, just small acts and comments that make me have a double-take and think "Are you kidding me?".
Most recently, these things have made me lose respect for people and my faith in humanity...
Example 1:
"In a few days, a movie's coming out that I'm excited to see..."
"What's that?"
"Death Race."
Example 2:
"You're a Buddhist, right? So why are you defending jewish people? Didn't Buddhism start in Guam or something?"
Example 3:
"Jumper was awesome, you have no right to talk about what movies are good! I mean, seriously! You like Pulp Fiction, There Will Be Blood, and Clerks! You like stupid movies."
(Pulp Fiction won a Cannes Award, There Will Be Blood had multiple Oscars, and Clerks is considered by both film critics and fans as a cult classic that left a huge impact on American cinema.)
What about you? What things make you hate your fellow man?

Me : "I was thinking maybe we could watch Batman begins. I really liked it and it will be nice if we could watch it before we go and see The dark knight tomorrow"
Friend: "Batman? I don't understand. What does he do?"
Same friend after typing an awful lot of capital letters: "I hate that button, what's it called again?" Me : "Read it."
After discussing the theory of evolution my friend says : "Yea, that sounds a lot more plausible then all that god crap. How does the theory of evolution go again ?"
Also, I have a really hard time finding respect for people that talk of chicks like they were just a pieces of meat with holes in them. Which basically means I don't respect anyone of my friends. I'm sure that with time I could think of hundreds more but this will have to do for now.
EDIT: Celebrity gossip just makes me cry... Especially the fact that it actually interests a lot of people. It's just so sad...
When you tell people that you're a gamer and they answer in a very condescending way, and imply that only kids should play videogames.

I got a big one and a small one if thats alright... big one-the ever-growing shallowness of the human world small one-a friend of mine told me he thought the halo series was strategic.
This fellow I went to school with was an admitted druggie. Now, I have nothing against pot-users and what not, but he did it all, coke, pot, pills, crazy stuff. He has also bragged about how he once knocked out a hooker on the street with a brick because he thought it'd be funny, and to him it was HILARIOUS! This guy has a girl friend, girls who cheat with him on said girl friend, and the love of half the student body at that school.
And to make it worse, he's like, 5'6" and looks something like a rat in the face. There's actually two guys who went to my school who fit the same description and got the same attention, except one was blonde and one was brown haired.
Which apparently proves the point that if you want to get laid, be the biggest asshole you can imagine and it'll more than likely work.
Also, I can't stand people who insult people for being intelligent or for reading books. Because apparently you are a foolish social retard if you like anything that's intellectualy engaging.
I think I'm learning why I started listening to death metal...

Sounds like one hell of a guy, but seriously, why does his height and looks have anything to do with it? Neither is his fault, which makes it sort of weird to mention - though I do understand the point you make about a somewhat short, rat-faced asshole who still manages to get laid.
Albino Ninja: small one-a friend of mine told me he thought the halo series was strategic.
he probably saw an early prototype vid of it, circa 1999. the first Halo was actually supposed to be an RTS. then it got changed to a third-person shooter. now its the FPS giant you know it to be today.

I think its because said asshole everybody knows, For some reason women like men that are dicks. The guys most likely a dick so it works out.

I meant it like this, I can see a complete dick getting laid if he looks like Brad Pitt or something, ya know? The same way I can over look a chick being dumb if she's devastatingly hot (call me shallow, but I'm not going to lie to you). But this guy is not only very much a complete scum bag, but also a very average (below average) looking person physically. And then I look unto the beautiful women he is getting and I'm just like "How? In what God's world does this make sense?". But then I am reminded that he will probably O.D. before he's thirty.

People who feel angsty.
If you see someone one up you in something, who cares? Who cares if there's a perceived injustice in the world? Don't bother feeling moody or angsty, just move on. There's plenty of other things you can focus on. Hell, if people get on your back about reading books, just ignore them and dive back in to the story. You see some asshole get a date? Ignore it! There's no reason to rob them of such happiness, they've every right to it as nice folk.
1)A guy I know who can't find Alabama on a map. That's okay and all, but considering he was wearing a shirt with Alabama on it and we live there...
2)the people at my school that still think Disney is worth something. Poor, poor, souls.
3)And another, a friend of mine thought Cthulhu originated as a meme from 4chan.
4)People that think that remakes of songs are the originals. Me: "For the last time, Tears for Fears wrote 'Mad World' in the 80's" Stupid guy: "No they didn't." Me: "Okay, what's you're reason for thinking this?" Stupid guy: "Because Gary Jules played it on that Gears of War thing. And I never heard it before then."

oh, right - didn't really think of that, you've made your point and I have to agree I'm awfully shallow at times as well, putting up with what is basically a stereotypical blonde can be quite awful, unless you reap the benefits.

Is he rich? Money conquers all, remember.
This might be a british thing, but I lost my respect for humanity when burberry stuff became popular. It's plaid, people! PLAID, for christ's sake!

I'm not angsty about it, it just makes me, again, lose respect for people. I get dates, I get girls, and I'm not one of those people who are insulted for reading. I'm one of the few I guess who are decent enough at social interaction to avoid any of that, but I see it happen to other people, someone will say it to me, and all I can say (without starting a fight) is "Whatever, man...".
I'm not sad about it, maybe a little "confused" or even "frustrated" about the logic that goes into it, but not angsty. I just lose respect for those people, and people in mass. Like, I'm the kinda guy who hates "people" (hate is a harsh word, maybe... dislikes?) but enjoys a group of individuals. And incidents like this, and the common occurence of those events make me dislike "people" even more.
Am I making sense?
And you have Nietzche as an avatar, how are you going to give me a "your being angsty" response when you have the King of Nihilism as your representative picture?

HAHA, that happened over here (Denmark) as well, almost overnight a ton of people were wearing burberry caps, scarfs, shirts, etc. that was horrible, to say the least
absurdly rich people with NO actual skills other than the ability to inherit obscene amounts of money in any other time, in any other country, they would have starved to death years ago.
I've worked in retail for the past 6 years, and that has given me plenty of exposure to the darker side of humanity...
I just got done working at a department store that was liquidated due to bankruptcy of the company. Every piece of merchandise was substantially discounted, and this just seemed to bring out the pettiness and greed of everybody shopping there. On a daily basis people would get pissed when something they bought was actually only 70% off when they thought it was 75% off because some other dumbass customer put it back in the wrong place. So then a manager would have to come and fix it so they would get their precious $0.90 back.
Sometimes when closing, I would have to clean the bathrooms. I'm convinced that at least half of all the so-called "adults" that shopped there never received potty training when they were little. It was appalling, piss and shit and toilet paper strewn about everywhere. And also the sales floor was regularly made a shambles, boxes torn open when there are big signs that read "PLEASE DO NOT OPEN CARTONS". People are pigs.
Let's see: 1) Today's music 2) Reality shows 3) People that do drugs, you have nothing better to do? 4) People that don't read 5) Disney, what happened to all of the awesome cartoons, like Gargloyes? 6) Stupidity More to come............
I hear them all the time. Small, little comments that make me say "Wow, are people getting dumber by the day or am I just going crazy?". These things don't have to be world-altering acts of war or anything, no, just small acts and comments that make me have a double-take and think "Are you kidding me?".
Most recently, these things have made me lose respect for people and my faith in humanity...
