    The thing that bothers me the most is when ppl post on Forums and dont have a pic of themselves in their profile.

    You start a thread in a community of people you just called ignorant. That's brilliant.

    Co-worker = ignorant and lazy and it just drives me crazy and stresses the hell out of me.
    Friends - I have none
    Family - Ignorant
    MFP members - I plead the fifth.

    Lol, I think you've misinterpreted my post. I'm saying ignorant people on MFP are more irksome than lazy people on MFP. I'm not categorizing all MFP members as being ignorant.

    I'm sure you've come across some ignorant people on MFP. If you haven't yet, keep browsing the forums. You'll come across some backwards thinkers lol!

    Ignorance isn't always a negative. No one is born knowing everything - we are all ignorant at some time or another. As long as you're seeking to learn and have an open mind, there's nothing wrong with ignorance.

    Willfull ignorance is the problem.

    As for laziness - guilty as charged. I don't care if it annoys anyone else.

    Co-worker = ignorant and lazy--ignorant people i can't stand being around, lazy people in the work context make my job harder so I HATE that too. Be a team player and be pleasant! :)

    Friends - both--lazy people lack ambition and I try not to surround myself by those kinds of people. ignorant people are annoying but if they are receptive to becoming informed then I can deal with it.

    Family - lazy.

    MFP members - ignorant people who THINK they're right or feign competence about something they know little about. now, if you're ignorant as a byproduct of simply being new to calorie counting, nutrition, working out, etc...then that's understandable. We all start somewhere. Lazy people are worse than simply uninformed people...if you can't help yourself no one can help you. period.
