It's happened to us all once or twice. You are wherever you might be, doing whatever you might do there and you have to work together with one or more people to accomplish a given task. Inevitably when this happens you will most likely end up being the smartest and best person in the group and everyone else is going to be so stupid that they won't understand or even see your brilliance. No matter how hard you might try to be the bigger person nothing works. You have yelled and screamed, and even stomped around trying to help them to see your vision but no matter how many names you called them or times you've cussed them out they still just don't get it. Now not only are you not getting your task accomplished but things are now getting heated and all the sudden one stupid bitch crosses the line just like that it's decision time...
