    what about someone who is stupid, ignorant, arrogant, and pretensious?

    Funny thing about the metric system... in American universities, if you're in biology, chemistry, physics, or an electrical engineering, you use the metric system. If you're in civil engineering, mechanical engineering, or any other physical science (such as geology), you use "English" units. Makes interdisciplinary research, especially sharing computer models, a bitch.
    What? I'll get to use english units as an aerospace engineer? That gets to me too.

    The high concentration of minor annoyances is driving me to the point where I am considering slitting my wrists.

    Well, not really. But you get the idea.

    I despise program code that isn't spaced neatly, like mine is.

    People contradicting me when they have no idea about the subject being spoken about. It's not normally here on the board or else I would come, but in real life.
