Even after taking regular vitamins and occasional D specific add-ons, my levels (in the summer) were still just below desired levels. I think most of the developed world is suffering from this

Or just don’t argue with anyone. Most people can’t be convinced to change their opinions. Speak your mind when appropriate, but unless someone is showing that they’re interested in a rational debate of facts and ideas, walk away when they start arguing without providing reliably sourced facts. I’ve learned that most people either make up facts (or get them from memes on social media) or use anecdotal evidence to back up their nonsense.

Please go back and read the tip.
This is about somebody who is annoying and persistently lazy.

Your reason is that someone mildly annoying you gives you free license to be rude to them in return.
That just makes you an asshole.

On the contrary.
A very good reason.

I’m not making a stand, I’m attacking. You’re the one defending this garbage behavior for no good reason.

This is freaky. I was literally JUST thinking about this based on a post I just read about Peace, and I picture myself with enormous patience for my mother, having a conversation that we need to have and accepting that she’ll never see my side and it’s ok that she’s wrong (she really is, she just thinks I’m not telling the truth about something). So, peace is accepting things as they are, not what we think they should be and part of that is letting my mother be wrong. What an amazing message from the universe. Thank you.

There are worse replys to make your stand on.
This is not the hill for you to die on.

I'll add, it's more than some people. It's MOST people. It's far more peaceful to just let them be.

It does not matter. There is no question that justifies this kind of snarky rude response, period.

You need to go tell this to all of twitter. Haha. It's amazing the arguments on there between such entrenched sides.

Yes it is dismissive and makes you sound like a royal assbag.

That doesn’t matter. Someone asking a dumb question is not an excuse to be rude to them.

If its a weak question it is not inviting. Its annoying.
Want to engage? Ask smart.

This is true but there's better ways of handling that than being as rude as their tip comes off.

Even if it is faster, this is just not a polite way to interact with a person.

If Its faster to ask google than wait for a response...
You tend to question the IQ.

Ah yes, why have a normal conversation when you could be on your phone instead!

Maybe its that one coworker or family member who is too lazy to look up info or make a little effort to learn for themselves. Once you're at the fifth or sixth time it's not an attempt at conversation.

You didn't read the LPT.
I think you should go back and check it.
If not, what did Google say?
