If You Do These Things, Apparently The Internet Thinks You’re A Terrible Person
The internet is a judgmental place, and this time, the holy members of Reddit have turned their judgment on each other to determine "what screams 'I am a terrible person?'"
Some of the answers had us nodding our heads in agreement, while others left us concerned that everyone in our life secretly hates us because we didn't realize we were doing something other people considered terrible. Time to learn the tough truth about how people feel about these behaviors.
Wear Headphones Like A Normal Person
I'm thrilled that you've found a genre of music that makes you happy, but that doesn't mean that every other person within a two-mile radius also wants to hear your music. The people who do this never have good taste in music, either.
The Novelty Has To Have Worn Off By Now
It might have seemed cute or funny at the time, but can you honestly tell me that 5 years later, you're still happy to be driving a car with a "D4DDYSgurl" license plate?
You're Trash If You Throw Trash
The internet came to a pretty much unanimous decision that if you're a person who litters, you're as trashy as the garbage you just threw onto the ground. There's no debating this one.
It's One Space Per Vehicle
If you have a car that's big enough for you to park across four parking spaces, you've clearly got some other issues to be dealing with in life. Taking up two spaces, though, just means you should go back to driver's ed.
Round Up And Move On
The people who do this are also the people who tell you that you owe them exactly 2 dollars and 17 cents for that coffee they bought you three weeks ago, rather than you just paying for theirs next time.
What's The Common Denominator?
Anyone who says this is a walking red flag, and you won't convince us (or the internet) of anything else. They are the common denominator here, and they will say the same about you if and when you break up.
Just Enough Trauma To Go Viral
You know those videos that always circulate after Halloween or Easter where parents lie to their children and tell them that they ate all their candy or chocolate, so the kids cry? Who decided those were funny?
Old People Are Barely An Exception
You'll still be annoyed by the older people who walk slowly down the middle of the hallway, but you'll cut them some slack. Anyone under the age of 65, though? The worst.
We Don't Need To Hear Your Conversation
Either find a pair of headphones or hold the phone up to your ear like a normal person. Just because you're enjoying your conversation does not mean that the rest of us want to hear your friend tell a story about her coworker.
Have A Little Patience
I don't know how often the dangerous cut-off part of this equation happens, but we've all been victim to the impatient driver behind us at a light who felt the need to honk at the exact millisecond the light changed to green.
What Kind Of Monster...
The whole idea behind pouring milk before cereal doesn't even make sense. How do you know how much milk you'll need until you heavy-handedly pour half the box into your bowl? Plus, it creates an unnecessary amount of splash!
They're People Too, You Know
A friendly reminder to anyone who feels the need to be rude to waitstaff or people who work in the service industry: you're no better or more important than them. Chances are they know how to feed themselves, whereas you have to rely on take-out.
What's The Point Of Having A Blinker?
People need to remember that the point of a turn signal is to alert those around you of what move you're about to make with the piece of metal you're racing down the road. It's not for the driver, it's for everyone else. Use your blinker.
A Meal Shouldn't Be An Audible Experience
There is no need for those people who turn every meal into a symphony of noises. I'm thrilled you're enjoying your meal, but could you please enjoy it in silence, so I can enjoy mine?
Please Stay In Your Lane
And in case it was unclear, "your lane" would be the one on the right side of the road. You can go as slow as you want over there, but leave the left lane for those racing to their very important destinations.
We've All Got Places To Be
Anyone who is waiting their turn in line or waiting to board a bus is in the exact same position as you; we've all got somewhere to be. Let everyone exit the bus before you push your way on.
Like Looking In A Mirror
If it's a picture of you with another person, then that's a different story, but who sets a photo of only themselves as their lock screen? You already know who your phone belongs to, and you don't need to be reminded of what your face looks like.
Crucial Dog-Walking Etiquette
Your dog might be a perfectly well-trained angel who loves everyone and just wants to calmly roam free, but not every dog is. Keep yours on a leash so everyone can enjoy their walk without extra stress.
Just Don't Be This Person
Seriously, there is no need for this. At the very least, if you can't put in the small amount of effort it takes to walk the cart back to the corral or to the store, at least leave it in a place that doesn't block other cars or spots.
You'd Better Take Your Food To Go
There was a bit of a debate about this one, though this person has a strong opinion about it. There are some circumstances or restaurants where it might be okay to show up a few minutes before closing, but in general, please time your cravings better.
