Prejudice
"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

I have a friend who believes in that crap.
We just found out that our beloved cat has cancer of the not-really-treatable sort, and New-Age-Woo friend's first response was to blather on about some alterna-treatment she'd read about involving something without much scientific basis.
I did not shout 'SHUT THE HELL UP, MY CAT IS GOING TO DIE, JUST MAKE SYMPATHETIC NOISES AND LEAVE OFF THE PSEUDOSCIENCE' even though I wanted to, as she really is a good-hearted person despite the lack of logic. Sometimes I think she must be too clever to really believe all that, but other times I wonder.
