Note to self... stop getting annoyed by stuff on the internet. I'm sure no-one else does.

This seems more like a note to us than a note to self.....
Yes...you are the only person on earth who gets annoyed by stuff on the internet.
In other news - no one ever argues over politics or religion.

That's what I thought
Sounds like someone has been reading their YouTube comments or has a very active Twitter feed. The dregs of humanity lurk about. Be careful!
I get annoyed when people contradict me.
If I'm wrong, no problem, unless they keep going on & on about it!
If I know I'm not wrong, then it really bugs me. Yeah, I know it shouldn't.
To that effect, I've turned off notifications for when folks reply to me, because 7 times out of 10 it will be a rebuttal of something I posted.
I've done that on all the forums but one that I visit. The one forum is about Thailand & we curse & post about naughty things, so I want to read it all. On there it's more like 3 times out of 10 that someone will contradict me, but the majority of them know I spent a long time in Thailand & can speak, read & write the language.

Luckily I'm able to control which people I will continue having to deal with, but that's out the window when it comes to driving. I daily run into some entitled idiot driving in the fast lane about 10 mph slower than the speed limit.
Yesterday I passed one on the right & blew the horn as we passed. They returned fire on their horn & then whipped past us before the next traffic light & cut us off.
They were ready for a verbal argument too, because as I drove by slowly as they were trapped behind cars turning right, they had their phone up to take video & were rolling the window down.
I just kept on driving & didn't give them the satisfaction of filming an argument.
It only just occurred to me that the idiot was getting their bit of distracted driving for the day as well, fidgeting with their phone instead of actually driving. It appeared as if it was well-cued up for the event.

Isn't there a saying to the effect of 'If you find yourself arguing with an idiot on the internet, be sure they're not doing the same thing'?
