    How do people not understand the concept of a 4 way stop?

    People are stupid

    Too many people are stupid. It’s infuriating.

    I concur.

    Most of the time when I'm discussing what's wrong with people the conversation concludes with, "well, the average IQ is kind of low so most people are idiots."

    Funny thing is no one gets upset about this because no one considers themselves average.

    I work with some very high IQ folks in academia. That is not a good measure of stupidity, but rather a mere measure of intelligence. Plenty of them are, in fact, extremely stupid or lack common sense.

    I was just thinking this. A genius can still be a mess and make terrible life decisions.

    I have a family member who has a Doctoral degree in Forensic Chemistry and is a very well paid, high level manager for a name brand chip maker. She a bit off on common sense.

    Lack of butter in my oatmeal.

    What kind of weird thing is this? Who puts butter in their oatmeal? Is this like the sugar and grits thing that's so popular where I live?

    Both sound horrid, sorry.

    Traffic signs are just guidelines, anyway. :D

    Oatmeal I like butter and brown sugar. Grit I have a bunch of different ways. Sometimes with butter and salt, sometimes with maple syrup, and sometimes just mixed with over easy eggs.

    Mexican restaurants that charge for chips and salsa
    And that McDonald's no longer carries Coke Zero :s

    I'm currently boycotting McDonalds

    Same. I hate they want me to order my own food at a kiosk.

    Yuck. The texture nightmare of that grit scenario. Grits with over easy eggs?

    I'll stick with oatmeal and maple syrup. Bacon on the side. Yum.

    Oatmeal with almonds and butter and maple syrup. It’s to die for. Mix in some bacon too, I bet that’d be amazing

    Depends on the honey. They have different varieties which have slightly different flavors. A good clover or lavender honey would taste amazing, I bet. :)

    You can keep that. Maybe if it was pumpkin or apple butter and brown sugar, I'd be down for it.. but not just regular butter.

    Also, unsalted or salted??
