Incompetence is the worst!

Incompetence really is the quality in others that I detest the most. When someone cannot do for themselves what I can do for myself, it bugs the hell out of me. Daily tasks, such as asking for directions, calling someone for help, learning the correct way to divide up the recycling, following instructions--these types of "unskills" (by which I mean that they aren't acquired after years and years of study) should be easily utilized by everyone.

As a further example, I create and maintain a Voting Elimination game online in the MadonnaMad community forum and each week I try very hard to make the rules more interesting than simply picking and voting. I thrive on keeping rounds exciting, unique and special. Of course, there are a few who just complain that it's hard, that it's incomprehensible; that it's pointless. Then, I'm asked for further instructions. God....just read the fucking instructions. Are you really this thick? Would you rather have a boring and simple game like all other games??

Blah... ok, I'm done venting now.

if that person is in my life on a continual basis, i keep getting frustrated almost to the point where i accuse them of stupidity or utter laziness.

if i can live without interacting with that person, then i do, primarily ignoring everything they do and say.
