Crazy like a bedbug!

That's it.

I've lost patience with people telling me that I (who I, and others, have said should be the poster child for patience) need to be patient.

Because I need to be patient. You know, me who thinks that patience is one of my biggest faults.
Usually when I snap, I've put up with the problem for a veeeeery long time.
Brother being an ass? Two weeks.
Friend being a whore? Years.
Cousin being a two-faced somethingorother? More years.
Parents being ridiculous? Life.

The people who tell me to be patient?

Can't be bothered to wait for five fucking minutes without whining.

Cuss at everything, because it's not going their way.

Complain because they've sat at a drive through speaker for more than 30 seconds, or god forbid, have to wait in a line.

Etc., etc., etc.

Sure, I have my moments of impatience. I find these come when I know something shouldn't be taking as long as it is. Like pulling out into traffic, or waiting in line at Wal-mart. Or sitting through V for Vendetta. Man, that was one ridiculously long and somewhat boring movie.

At least when I'm feeling impatient, I try not to complain unless there's good reason. Like having to sit out in 95+ degree (F) weather waiting half an hour for someone (mom) to come outside. Even if someone else complains, I just nod civilly and mind my own business. Now, mind you, if I'm expecting an important package (computer), need it asap (beginning of semester), and the delivery company (UPS) can't get their ducks in a row, then I'm going to be impatient, especially after waiting 6 months and wading through tonnes (yes, metric) of bullshit just to get the thing. I've even had people tell me that I was ridiculously patient with Best Buy, who was busy fucking me over.

I've lost patience with impatient people telling me I need to be patient.

I'm going to kick them all with a steel-toed boot.
