Is it normal to get angry at stupid people?
And I mean angry enough to just give them a kiss with your fist, so to speak.

If you mean inconsiderate people I'm with you. Like people who ride the bus and take up a seat with their purse or lunchbox when a pregnant woman is standing. I'd like to slap them, but I hold back.

Depends what you mean by "stupid." If you mean ignorant people, I totally agree. But if you mean those who are below average intelligence, often times they can't help it.

I kind of mean a combination of ignorant people (by which I mean racists, sexists, etc.) and then ignorant people (by which I mean, people who flat out lack common sense. For example, I once spoke to a man in his late 20's who said - and I have no idea how we got on this topic - that kidney stones shouldn't hurt that bad because they come out of your ass. OUT OF YOUR ASS. Let that sink in.)

Yes, but don't "kiss" them.
They only inconvenience you sporadically. On the other hand they are in the presence of an idiot their whole lives.

Some people are just to dumb to exist. You look at these people and wonder how someone so dumb can even function

Stupid people don't anger me so much as they repulse me. I sometimes wonder how these people could possibly be considered human beings, and how on earth they classified as the same species as myself. I avoid stupid people like the plague. Contrary to public belief, stupidity is contagious, and the more stupid people you keep company of, the more serious the effects of the disease.
The only time I get angry is when I get angry at myself, because very soon after the above train of thought occupies my mind, I remember that most "stupid people" are bred out of poverty, unequal opportunities, disadvantageous life circumstances and perhaps biology - most of which are beyond their control. I'm not sure that quite deserves a "kiss with your fist", as you so eloquently put it.
It's often important not to mistake ignorance for stupidity.

Maybe but if you are computer savoy and someone else doesn't know them and they ask you a question and you get pissed, then you might have aproblem. But if they ask you should they wipe up or down when they poop or should they ask you how to put on socks. I went to buy a camera and ask the guy some questions and he acted like I asked him to massage my balls?

What is the criteria? A lot of things can be considered dumb. What is your set standard. Your post is incredibly vague. So I do not know if we can properly answer it. Since we all would have a different idea of what "Stupid" really is.

Yes, that's very true. However, these individuals assumed I was an idiot because I wasn't 'gangsta' and focused on actually doing some work in high school. I'm talking about legitimate idiots; people who are clearly lacking common sense and basic knowledge when there's no reason for that and they do things which make that blatant.

What a gentleman you are, calling someone a mistake based on nothing whatsoever. I could sink to your level in a number of ways, but I won't. Instead, I'll just assume you're having a bad day and you're taking it out of me.
Hope you have a better one tomorrow.
