Is it bad manners? Noisy (or nosey) neighbours? Crude dress? Expensive groceries? Rainy days? I know this isn't an overly positive toipc, but as is life, we're only human and sometimes things just tick us off...

Stupidity pisses me off. People complaining about boat people (which account for less than 1% of all illegals), speeding idiot drivers (risking everybody's lives for the sake of a few minutes), people complaining about interest rates while they busily live out their lives on credit, people actually believing wars are fought over anything else other than oil or money, and the list goes on. And unfortunately stupid people also seem to be the most vocal and listened to. People should really take time to research their point of view, rather than be swayed by the likes ACA, Today Tonight or Andrew Bolt.
