Becoming an anthropologist means, "being interested, without judgment, in the way other people choose to live their lives and behave (Carlson, 1997)" Doing so for the "regular Joe," means to become an interested observer of the behavior of others without wanting to throw something at them. It means to take a step back and to separate the person from the behavior. It means to practice patience daily, and without secretly feeling better than the other person.
