Why?!

Why do I have such a need to correct people's generalizations no matter how small? I hate it so much when people generalize. Like, guys are stupid. Dude, PEOPLE are stupid. Women are not exempt from being stupid. Or better yet, just say that specific person is dumb, not that all men are or all people because, hey, people can be smart, too. Not all guys are stupid. I know a lot of highly intelligent ones.

Someone said most bosses are assholes, and I resisted the urge to jump on that. I have never had a boss I didn't like. A lot of bosses are very understanding of their coworkers. Of course there are going to be those that are actually assholes. But that doesn't mean you have to discriminate against all bosses.

It's not nice to generalize. I don't like being in one of those generalizations, so I try not to do it so others don't have to feel that way, too.

I just don't understand why some people can't be more careful and mindful of what they are saying.

There isn't one person I'm aiming this at. If you're reading this, chances are you've done. Hell, I've done it. I used to do it all the time. But, I realize how terrible it is to do so, so I've tried to stop. It's a hard habit to break, so I can understand, but I will say something if I see you do it.

Is that wrong of me?
