The absolute rage someone I knew flew into when his doctor reported him as no longer fit to drive. Never mind the fact that he blacked out while driving his car, fell asleep on a forklift and had lost a large chunk of his spatial awareness leading to scraping the shit out of his car, but "HoW dArE tHeY". Fucker is lucky he didn't hurt anyone. And yet still thought it was an excellent choice to not take his medication.

Some people would rather talk about other people's faults than admit their own.

Thee main thing that made me feel angry was the way she insulted her son who drives here everywhere who looks after her.

She feels no gratitude and thinks saying thank you is abasement.
