Condescending

Well, I have mountains of homework, which I must complete all today.
What better time to type a new post?

Why are people so condescending?
It's something I myself am victim to do, and a victim of.
You know what I'm talking about... Someone who is of higher social stratification tends to treat those "below" him or her... as if they were really below him or her.

Is my aversion to such an attitude lack of humility?
Or being self-conscious?

Some would argue that I'm not comfortable with myself.
I mean, why should I care how others think of me?

No, I am tired of others treating me as if I lack social skills, intellect, or maturity simply on what they know face value.
But who am I kidding? Like I've said before, it's something I do to others as well.

It's the self-fulfilling prophecy. You see a kid with a t-shirt with a Warcraft logo, glasses, acne, and a skinny doesn't-exercise frame.
What do you think?
NERD.
Therefore, since you are convinced that kid is a nerd, you will treat him as if he were one.

Anyway, I'm just a naive teen typing things you probably know.
I should go now.

In the words of my mother, I should "Stop worrying about these things and do your homework".
