BUt theres something slightly different about this type of person. They picked up the social rules from everybody around them, but never developed anything more. They are ethical, moral people. But not because THEY believe that it is good, but because thats just what your supposed to do. Was it Descartes who described them as "Human Cattle" ? The MAJOR difference in what Im talking about is that, there are mindless people who are worthless. There are people who are normal, down to earth, trying to get by. The type of person Im talking about exists inbetween, and nobody really notices. Maybe thats not a bad thing, I try my hardest not to get my panties into a bunch over it but ask yourself, do you want this type of person finding their way into some position of power where they get to make decisions t hat directly effect your life. Like say... oh I dont know... a politician. If that guy is making his decision on health care based on the morals he learned from an episode of House, then wouldnt you agree perhaps that we're............... FUCKED. wait, let me try that again for you pretentious pricks. we're FUUUUUUUUUUCKED.

I think you're just describing fake people... there's lots of those types in this world.
I do my best to avoid them and minimize their impact on my life, but you can't escape them all. Especially if they are in positions of power. Anyways, there is no use in complaining about those kinds of people, because it's not like they will ever go away. And hell, there has never been a person in this world who was not/is not/will be fake at some time in their lives to some degree.
Also, what is wrong with judging people? It's human nature and even if you like to say you don't judge people, you do. Everyone makes judgements about everything in their lives. It's natural and normal. It's when you judge people
unfairly that it becomes a problem.
Also, any crap about the South or the North being better than the other is pure bullshit. Neither side was devoid of atrocities; neither side was devoid of assholes. Everyone has been/will be an asshole at some point in their lives. It's a fact of life. Human nature is the same that it has always been and always will be. Bitching about this is not productive in the least, because it will never change. Just live your fucking life and do your best to ignore the shit that will never change.
Also, do your best to spell "ridiculous" correctly, or I will hunt you down and kill you with my thumbs. That goes for everyone who reads this.
