RUDENESS . . .
I worked at a college library that checked out laptops. The majority of the students would walk up to the desk while talking on their phone, slap their card on the desk, bark "laptop!", and continue their conversation. I desperately wanted to smash some phones. Or bark "asshole!" back at them.
Yes, people that are always late or blow you off really pisses me off.
Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' -Isaac Asimov-
