I would say I have a hatred of aggressive, pushy, arrogant people, and that doesn't imply I am one myself, because I'm certainly not
I don't think it's terribly 'subjective' to say that people who habitually push into queues are dicks, they just ARE.
Rudeness and discourtesy piss me right off. I'm not saying you have to go out of your way to please others every waking minute, but people who go around like they're the only person on earth that matters shouldn't be surprised that they don't have many friends.

this is quite funny, isn't it?
like an edwardian governess replying to the injudicious suggestion that clitoral onanism is common in young girls
sort of
when someone gets angry at someone else for trespassing the boundaries around what's "polite", it's often because that person wouldn't themselves have the nerve to do the same

Sorry, did I frighten you? How terribly discourteous of me.the lack of insight in that post is frightening

you could read it that way
I'd say that I'm rather shy and introspective, and although most of the time pushy people don't get along with me (and vice versa) some of my best friends are quite aggressive and extroverted.
Also, why have you put those "" around "polite", as if I'm talking about some hilariously outdated, stuffy old system of arbitrary customs and behavioural taboos? I'm not talking about knowing which knife to use for the fish course or saying 'bathroom' instead of 'toilet', I just mean basic decency and common (or 'common') courtesy, normal everyday un-cuntishness.
You also seem to be hinting that the only reason we don't all act in a selfish way is that we're too much of a pussy to dare, and that the resultant jealousy is the main reason we don't like people who act in that way. Whereas I think that's rubbish; rude, arrogant people are annoying in and of themselves.
