Generally speaking, I love all the people who use the library. Generally speaking. But ever since Bill Bryson we know that this is “always a dangerous thing to do, generally speaking”. True enough, most library users are really nice people. Yet, there are also those that turn even angelic me into a raving termagant. In the past two years I’ve accumulated enough experience to be able to divide these weirdoes into the following groups:

                                                   

Group 1. The pseudo-intellectuals.

Group 2. The complicated.

Group 3. The know-it-alls.
