Well when i mean stupidity i actually mean willful ignorance. If someone genuinely doesn't know something but is open to learning and wants to better themselves i don't consider them stupid. But people being stubborn, ignorant and unwilling to change and learn frustrates me greatly.

...smokers, drunks, drug-abusers, drop-outs, repeat offenders, people who ignore warnings and take unnecessary risks...
