am i what i hate in others, only seeing things my way?

man, i think i am. in way more ways than i would like.

i tried explaining this theory to v and d at work the other day and if they had been honest they would have been sitting there with their mouths 1/2 open drooling. that is how much they did NOT get it. i am not very deep, and i get it, so how hard can it be?

so, yesterday we were having trouble with one of our software applications. it kept booting us out. and someone says, "well, if you have too many im windows open it uses up too much memory and blahblahblah." and the day the coffee overflowed AGAIN, "well, this never happens at home." oh, do you have the same maker at home? "no, but it has always happened here no matter what type we have and you guys put too much coffee in the filter blahblahblah."

this person has an answer (a seemingly bullshit answer, mind you) for every single defugelty imaginable! shut up! shit happens. you don't have to explain it to us. you don't have to have an answer.

and so i am now wondering if this is something i do. yeeks. i hope not. or at least i hope that if i have, nobody is remembering it like i am with these situations. please forgive me. maybe this falls in the category of things where a person should keep their mouths shut and appear stupid rather than open it and prove it conclusively once and for all!

i wish i could tune people out. but it seems that i hear everything that bugs the crap out of me. i want to shake people and scream, "shut up! do you have any idea how you sound?" and why do people in your personal life put up with that crap?

and i don't want to be one of those people.

i don't want to be so easily bugged. but i am. and if i were perfect, it would (maybe) make more sense. help!
