1) Denigrate my lifestyle - that is, tell me my choice of a bike as transport, being vegetarian, and generally being as 'green' as possible is stupid, lame or whatever. Also trying to 'convert' me back into the car-using, meat-eating, unevrinmental-living fold.
2) Take pot shots at my friends, particularly when they can't defend themselves. Nothing will arouse my righteous anger so well as seeing a friend upset, especially when they've tried to make amends for any wrongdoing/apologised/not at fault.
3) Deliberate stupidity. People being stupid because they choose to not know anything. There are so many opportunities out there, so much to learn and know, and people just seem content to accept what the commercial tv news tells them.
4) Biogtry. In any form. Make any sort of unflattering comment about any person of any social group, and you'll hear about it from me.
5) Manipulation. Don't even try and twist my words, or get me to do something I don't want to do, because my new outlook is very intolerant of that kind of thing.
Um, that's pretty much all I can think of, really. I'm sure there's a few more, petty-type things, but these are the biggies.t
