Loud fucking people

Some people are just fucking loud. I'm sitting here in Starbucks and some jackass old man across the room is yapping so fucking loud. It's as if he's shouting and the entire fucking room can hear him yapping about some inane topic.

So loud people: are you oblivious to how loud and obnoxious you are? Do you just not give a shit?

I consider people who do this to be trashy, stupid, and obnoxious. Same category of people who FaceTime and watch YouTube and talk on their speakerphones in public places. I have contempt for every single one of you, and I will take every opportunity to be just as rude & inconsiderate to you as you are to everybody around you constantly.

It's absolutely ok to feel frustrated. What I'm describing is what you do with that feeling, how you react to it. One option is ruminating on it and lashing out at others, as per this post. Another option is recognizing the emotion, accepting it for what it is, and then moving forward.

I should emphasize that this is a practice, and no one ever will be on their A game 100% of the time. There are always going to be times when someone acts instinctually on emotion and maybe does something destructive. After the fact, it's again about recognizing what happened, accepting it, forgiving yourself, and moving forward.
