don't sweat the small stuff...so why do people?

[joko]

Why do so many people get irate, even furious about things that actually have no bearing on them or their life?

they don't affect them, they are irrelevant, they are none of their business, not offensive - yet so many get het up about them.

i am talking about things such as, for instance, people with beards or moustaches, ginger hair, people on the telly, certain types of clothing, girls who drink pints, people who wiggle their legs or pens or hair or whatever, other peoples decor, students, etc etc etc.

there are loads of things, and there are often mad, ranting questions on here asking "why why why"

its quite bizarre.

any ideas why these minor irrelevancies bother people so much?

[ummmm]

Ohhh Boys, I quite fancy you both now!!!
