I have zero patience. For anything. I ordered a phone on ebay last friday. It's not here yet. And I am upset. Realistically, it shouldn't be here, but I have no patience. I want it now.
I have no patience with children who wont listen. I have no patience during movies.
I wonder if I need to be on some type of medication sometimes.

Yes, I am extremely patient as long as I've had my morning coffee.

When it comes to people, I'm usually patient for a good while, then I go crazy on their ass.

Relax, take a deep breath, ask someone you know and love to explain the virtues of patience and then have them slap you upside the head.

im not patient at all.

but when i order stuff it's different. i understand it takes time to come.

i just hate waiting in general when it could have been avoided, and I hate it when i tell someone something and they ask me the same thing later on. i also hate when i teach someone something and then they forget.

Depends on the situation for me.

I've got no patience for people who aren't willing to help themselves, for instance. People who leech off of others and society in general I simply cannot stand.

On the other hand, in situations like yours, where fretting over something won't accomplish anything, I'm very patient.

yes i do.

after living w/ my mom and seeing how rude she can be w/ her low tolerance of patience in life and around people, i came to learn from it and be a better person. patience is part of everything, is my belief. i do get angry at times and ticked and i lose my patience, but its rarely and if when or something has crossed the line more than once already.

This joke really only works when verbally communicated, but what the hell.

I was going to be a Doctor, but I didn't have the patients.

I'm patient as long as there's not a package being shipped. Then I check the status/mailbox like someone with OCD.

I like to think that I have realistic patience. I have no problem waiting for a package to arrive or waiting for a table at a crowded resteraunt. But I get pissed as hell when I feel like someone is wasting my time for no good reason.
