A lot of people are seemingly completely unable or unwilling to take a step back from their own position and look at a situation at least slightly more rationally. Everything is only seen and interpreted as how it affects them.
The cashier is not super friendly? Must be, that he’s an asshole, can’t be that he just had a bad day.
There’s a minor inconvenience to me because of some public good? Well, fuck the public, I want mine.
An argument with a friend, and I’m already angry? Better get even more angry and start screaming, that’ll show him!
Super emotional behavior in general.
