Sometimes we just need to rant about the ignorant people in this world. I’m not gonna lie…. there are a lot of them. I try to stay positive for the most part, I try to be friendly to those I see while I’m out and about, but there are those people…. that for the life of me, I cannot help but think that they are the most ignorant people I’ve ever met or laid eyes on.
# People who don’t love Disney…. Stitch and I are ready to attack you if you say anything negative about Disney. Seriously…. This is not a joke. We’re also ready to attack all of the following ignorant people in this world.
# The people who will stop traffic for 5 minutes in the middle of the parking lot to get a good parking space. Just walk – you probably need it!
# The same people who wait for 5 minutes and clearly assume no one is behind them because they obviously don’t look in their rear view mirror when they start reversing and then hit the poor girl that’s walking behind their car – Y’ALL! I literally witnessed this in the Target parking lot last weekend. I was so furious, I had to force myself to drive away because I almost jumped out of my car and beat them to a pulp.
# The people who don’t use their blinker. It’s there for a reason.
Clearly I have some road rage issues at the moment….
# The people who let their dogs roam free through the neighborhood. – People are running/biking/trying to be active and enjoy the fresh air outside. How the heck can I do that when your yappy snot-nosed dog is chasing after me? Put them on a leash or keep them in the backyard.
# The people who don’t wear a helmet when riding their bike (or a motorcycle!) – That’s just common sense.
# The people who are mean for no reason at all – Like when you’re at a restaurant and you over-hear a customer being rude to the waiter for a ‘mistake’ or ‘accident’…. Have some sympathy, kindness, and/or patience. I assume that’s not a fun or easy job and to top it off, they have to deal with your ignorant self, which can’t be easy. It was a mistake… life will go on.
# The people who park in a handicap spot, but are NOT handicapped. – In addition, the people who use a handicap sign that is not theirs.
# The people who go Black Friday shopping and then complain or huff when you’re taking an extra lengthy time checking-out. – This happened… a long time ago… but it annoyed me. You decided, with your own free will, to go Black Friday Shopping at midnight at Target. I assume you wouldn’t be so ignorant to think that you wouldn’t have to wait in a ridiculous line – I was wrong. Clearly.
# The people who “sleep around” or have “one night stands” on the regular. Is it just me, or does that gross anyone else out? There are emotions and STD’s and potential tiny humans to consider here…. just stop it.
# The people who post nothing but selfie’s on Instagram… and Twitter… and Face Book…. I do remember what your face looks like. It looked the same yesterday… and the day before that… and the day before that…. Seriously – You can stop now. I will un-follow you.
And Lastly….
# The haters – yes, I’m talking about the Valentine’s Day Haters… (Yeah, I’m late on my views about this). Why are you ignorant, you ask? Because the truth is, I think you’re bitter. I think you hate it because you’re afraid it won’t live up to your expectations. On top of that, I think you’re ignorant for thinking Valentine’s day is only important to couples. It’s a day to show love to everyone. On Christmas Day, you don’t say “Jesus, I’m sorry but I’m a Christian all the other days of the year, I don’t think Christmas Day should be celebrated” On July 4th, you don’t say “Hmm… you know, I’m an American all the other days of the year, July 4th just really isn’t that important” NO, YOU CRAZY PERSON! So why would you be so hateful towards Valentine’s Day? It’s a day of love – and not just a “I’m in a relationship” type of love, but a love your neighbor as yourself. This world doesn’t show love the rest of the year like it should, there is hate all around us, mean and cruel people – why would you belittle those who choose to LOVE deeper and LOVE stronger and LOVE more compassionately on Valentine’s day? Aren’t we more patriotic around July 4th? Aren’t we more “spiritual” or “christian like” around Easter and Christmas? Yes, we should be all of these things throughout the year, but the truth is…. we’re human and we’re not. So shut up, and show some freakin’ love on Valentine’s Day, because the world needs it!
What ignorant people do you deal with?

As soon as I read the first thing on your list I was like “I’m so glad I just started following her!” Definitely need more Disney lovers in my life 🙂
Nadine Lynn says
Yes to all of this!!!! I agree with all of them. I really REALLY get irritated at people in the car more than anything. Hello, you aren’t the only person on the road!!!!! And you are so right, the people that wait five minutes for the “rock star parking” are the ones that probably needed to walk the extra 10 feet!!!!

I have worked food service fore three years. I’ve been screamed at, spat on, food thrown at me, had chairs thrown at me….it’s horrible. And over things that are easily fixable if the person would just let me talk and fix it! And the sad thing is most of those people throwing these temper tantrums over food are middle aged adults who should know better. I’ve had to call the police a few times on people who got to violent over some food.

I dislike people that don’t wear helmets but I HATE people who don’t make their kids wear them!!! Seriously, if you want to kill yourself – cool, but you are hurting your kids!! GRRR!!! I also agree about Disney haters, you HAVE to at least like SOMETHING Disney!!
Susannah says
Hahaha. This post made me giggle. Sorry you’re so full of rage right now. 😉
Jessica @ Wonder Whats Next says

Go visit my blog, you’ll see who I think is ignorant today. But man, we have so much in common! I agree with everything you said in this post.

Okay, “Jesus, I’m sorry but I’m a Christian all the other days of the year, I don’t think Christmas Day should be celebrated” cracked me up! It’s true, though! Holidays are just that, HOLIDAYS. That doesn’t we can’t also enjoy what they celebrate any other days of the year. And I always loved Valentines when I was single. I’m actually pretty convinced that you have to be happy as a single person before you’ll really be happy married!
