I'll try to keep this list as short as I can. Truly stupid people, proselytizers, the pretentious, compulsive chatterboxes, sulkers and whiners (not to be confused with humorous cynics), dorks who watch sitcoms all night and tell creative people "you must have too much time on your hands", drivers who don't use their turn signal, macho men in white baseball caps who mistake masochism for masculinity (usually closetted homosexuals), spiteful male-bashing women who mistake androgyny for feminism (usually closetted heterosexuals), and finally: anybody who mistakenly took offense to those last two categories solely because they lift weights or wear Birkenstocks.
