Or better yet why its socially unacceptable to question's someone's belief. I mean its socially acceptable to tell people who believe that vaccines cause autism that they are full of shit but try to tell someone their religion is full of shit and you are an asshole. I don't see a difference.

When franchises push fans to vote, and for the fans who do blindly vote for the players on their own team for all star games, pro bowls, etc.

You're more than welcome to, but if you do it my dime, you'll bounce multiple times when I kick you out the door.

An old friend just named her son "Job". Wtf?

"Kambley" was just thrown around by my pregnant cousin, who already has a daughter named "Carsynn". I told her I would fucking disown her.

I still can't get over the names that use dashes as the word dash.

I won't hate on Job. It's from the Bible and obviously has extensive history behind it. It's not some made up and/or misspelled travesty. Biblical names have always been well used.

Besides, it lets everyone know her son is named after a loser who got completely shit on so his deity could win a bet with the devil. Nothing says personal pride like that!

I was thinking more along the lines of "the Bible is stupid, therefore the name is stupid", but that works too

People who sing the national anthem and put in a couple of hundred extra notes in it.

Computer techs who you can't understand on the phone.

Drivers in heavy traffic who are slow to get off lights, or slow in general. Hey, lets get 10 cars through this light when we could get 20!
