people being stupid. like people can be.

Something that really gets my goat (eheh, she’s on the deck!) is people using historical horrors or situations to emphasize something they’ve just been through. For example, if someone’s had a bad day or something, they might say something like: “today felt like Vietnam”. No, no, not really, it didn’t, because you didn’t get blanket bombed and coated in agent orange.

I had some more cheering examples, but alas, the old memory isn't doing so well.
