They just don't get it.
Some people just don't get it. That's all there is too it.I'm not sure what chemical imbalance they suffer from but it's debilitating. Not only to them, but to the people who try to be the voice of reason to these "special" people. I've discussed this before, but it gets to the point where you'd like nothing more than to smash them in the mouth with a great big "PULL YOUR HEAD OUT" sign.
Of course, if that doesn't work, they make the same mistakes over and over, and then you'd like to crush them with an "I TOLD YOU SO" sign. Sometimes, I wonder if there were ever enough ITYS signs. I don't think that they are.
It's hard when it's the same thing over and over. It's hard when they don't listen and you've been consistently right over and over, yet they still come back for advice. Advice that goes in one ear and out the other because they hear without listening. Throw in the fact that they're usually wrapped up in some sort of drama that they deem is life altering, when they don't really know what drama is, and you have a winner of a combination.
I'm sure that everyone deals with this type of person. Sad to say, sometimes it can be a bit entertaining if you're getting secondhand knowledge of these people.
Too bad, it can nearly cause aneurysms when the stupidity levels go too high.
But I have good news. We did win two ball games last night.
