    Anyone who says something really obvious out loud, especially when I've already thought the same in my mind and had already dismissed it not worthy to be said aloud.

    Unfair I know, but I don't care, they are the idiots

    I actually prefer people to throw their litter brazenly on the ground; at least it's got a chance of being cleaned up. The true cretins push their litter between say the wall and those traffic signal boxes, or throw them behind fences into vacant lots, secure in the knowledge that they will stay there for all eternity.

    Expression of right-wing opinions is usually a fairly good indicator. Although in fairness, some of them are just cunts.

    Believing that someone's political/sociological views are an indicator of intelligence is probably my one

    If I go bald and shave off the rest am I an idiot or is it only if I don't shave off my beard? I need to know the rules if I'm going to avoid this thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 303 ✭✭macgrub


    The people who simply reply with "this country/government/system is a joke" instead of providing a logical, critical response when they don't agree with an article, column or statement.

    Also, the people who believe we are becoming a 'third world' state, such as Haiti. They are more ignorant than being actual idiots though.
