Top 10 Things that Cause People to Overreact the Most

The Top Ten
1 Different Opinions

Everyone should respect others' opinions.

Oh my gosh, they are just opinions. Ok, I have done this a few times, but I have stopped for the most part.

2 Swear Words

I don't swear, but my God, people overreact to them so much. It is just stupid.

Let's not forget people who overreact when you censor swear words.

3 Fake News
4 Being Told to Calm Down

The fact that people get more emotional when they're told to calm down makes me wonder if saying the opposite, like "be angrier," would actually make them calmer.

I am guilty of this sometimes. I try not to overreact, but I just can't. Sorry, I have anger issues.

5 Criticism

There's a difference between bullying and criticism.

6 Movies

It may not have good animation, but I love Mr. Clipboard. An underrated classic. Critics, why so serious?

This one is just a matter of fans who only stick to the old movies and refuse to grow up.

7 Failure

No one likes when they get 99% and not 100%.

8 Edgy Jokes

From my understanding, edgy jokes are funny because they are offensive. I mean they're funny because you 'shouldn't' say them. Is it funny if you say something good like I ate my green beans and not I ate my baby? No.

Edgy jokes are the best, and edgy memes are one of the few things that can make me laugh.

9 Video Games
10 Sports

Sports/Sporting is delaying our advancements as a species. Sports never deserved to be worth multiple billions. Only a selective few sports deserved multiple billions. Many founders of religion would approve and disapprove of sports. Watching or playing too much sports shortens your overall lifespan/longevity.

Sports brings unwelcomed spirits to your household. Many of those spirits aren't worth losing your sanity. Human insanity is the universal currency of sports. Sports isn't for everyone collectively. Sports isn't more important than the Son of God or the Son of Man.

The Contenders
11 Net Neutrality
12 Retaliation

Some of my teachers have done this, and many other people can relate to this.

When I do this, everyone gets mad, like, what the heck!

13 Revenge
14 Spiders

I can understand this if you live in Peru, but where I live, spiders are harmless.

If it weren't for them, we might not have been alive!

15 Homosexuality

It's not that big a deal. If you're gay, that's cool. I won't react overly positively or negatively because there's not much that's special or abnormal about it. This is how it should be treated: a totally normal thing seen in a small percentage of people.

If you're straight, cool. If you're gay, cool. If you're bi, pan, or anything else, cool.

16 Cartoons
17 Politicians
18 Bisexuality
19 Weed
20 Pluto

It's an object in space. Deal with it. Don't fight over it if you don't even live on it.

21 Amusement Park Rides
22 Breakups
23 Drinks
