First, you should never upset someone intentionally.

Having said that, here is the most effective way to upset someone.

Attempt to convert them to your belief.

Weak minds go into a tailspin when they suspect they are being influenced.

Simply professing a contrary opinion sends the drama levels off the chart.

“Don’t force your religion on me!”

“You’re a bigot!”

“Don’t be hateful!”

You should  WELCOME conversion attempts.

It’s a chance to test the strength of your own beliefs.

Suppose your religion teaches that it is an act of worship to use a hairdryer in the shower.

Someday, in the comment section of your blog, we might have this discussion:

Me: “Maybe you could turn off the shower before flipping on the hairdryer.”

You: “Stop forcing your views on others!”

Me: “Does your religion DEMAND the water and hairdryer be running at the same time?”

You: “…I don’t know…let me check.”

*researches the question*

You: “Actually. It doesn’t specify.”

Me: “Why would a religion encourage a practice that electrocutes the most devout followers?”

You: “Shut up! You voted for Trump!”

By the way, the second best way to wound a simpleton is…

…tell them you voted for Trump.

If you think it’s absurd to stand in a running shower with a hairdryer then…

…you’ve been indoctrinated.

Somewhere in the past, somebody preached this message:

“Stand ye not in running water with electrical devices.”

And you believed.

Somebody may challenge that belief someday.

If you’re smart, you’ll explain why you don’t shower with a hairdryer.

If you’re a simpleton, you’ll just get triggered.
