    Stupidity and ignorance. I don't mean that everyone should know about or be interested in everything, but the majority of the human race seems content to waltz throught life blindfolded and with cotton in their ear. And should the horror of horrors occur and the ignorance fail for even a second one can always put some mindless reality show on until an acceptable level of stupidity is attained once more.

    Also what Hawkfeathers said. Being nice and friendly does not make me a pushover. My paws might be soft, but I still have claws. Hack me off and you'll feel them.

      Calling or implying that I am a liar, that really gets my goat.
      Or repeatedly ignoring my advice in a professional setting and instead opting to follow what ever garbage you've picked up form the internet "oooooh onions suck bacteria from the air"....AAAARGH!

          Come into my workspace and start demanding things from me before even introducing yourself. I've had so many supervisors and 'marketing strategists' and whatnots do this to me... I'm sorry, I may be an employee at a company, but I'd like to know your name and position before you start barking at me. I'm much easier to get along with once I know who the Hell you are.

          It's also common knowledge at my job that most people who get on my bad side don't keep their jobs for very long. It's a really strange coincidence. The last new supervisor who did that wasn't even employed long enough for me to even find out who she was.

          Yup. Put half a cut onion in a bowl in every room & your whole house is disinfected. Just like apple cider vinegar cures everything.

            Two things-

            1. Claim to know what I'm thinking or what I "would say/think if," then treating the fantasy as truth.

            2. Being called an offensive name, then being told "it's just a word," when I register my disapproval.
            Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

                Treating me like I'm incompetent. Even if I know nothing about the subject at hand, I'm TRYING to learn something about the subject at hand. It doesn't make me useless.

                    Ordering me to do things, I'll be nice and probably do whatever someone asks, but for whatever reason people think it's o.k. to demand things.

                        -making me rein in your children and then bitching at me for it,
                        solve your discipline problems before they become mine
                        - the use of "Thank You" as a dismissal
                        way too many customers have pulled this and it gets old

                        -other stuff I can't think of atm
                        life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

                        Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

                        "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                        John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

                        "You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

                        Aslan, Prince Caspian by CS Lewis

                          Maybe I'll try this tactic the next time it happens. Start flashing the sign of the evil eye at them & squawk "Stranger danger! Stranger danger!!!"
