    I know I’m an idiot and I know everyone else is as well, in their own way. So when I call people idiots, I do it as a fellow idiot gently reminding them they are in fact idiots.

    They generally disagree.

      Same, except they don’t just disagree, they are extremely pissed. For whatever reason idiots tend to assume superior status to me in particular.
