"especially as you mature and people aren't always getting on your nerves so much" I found that as I got older, people got on my nerves more! The first few times people did something annoying, it was like, "whatever". After the 100th time, it was like "here we go again", and I was getting ready to explode. The only thing I found that helped was avoiding such people, and when you're forced to rub shoulders with them due to work constraints, it can lead to a lot of stress. |

When the “here we go again” bit comes, there’s a few ways to react:
If you can’t really control the output, then predict it. I see how far ahead I can predict (including their questions and answers) and laugh when I’m right.
Predict then outcome and preempt it with a joke or even better a conclusion that was 3 steps ahead. People will think you’re a wizard.
If you don’t like the people then Troll hard. Bait them to reveal their ignorance in the most embarrassing way possible. Just for the fun of it.
I’ve found the experience that comes with getting older is an enormous source of entertainment
