What’s the one petty thing you secretly judge people for?

Question

Okay, let's be honest for a second.. we all have that one thing we quietly judge people for, even if we never say it out loud. 😅

I'm not talking about serious things. I mean those everyday habits or behaviors that instantly make you think, "Hmm... that tells me something about this person."

For me, it's when someone is rude to a waiter, cashier, cleaner, or any customer service worker. It doesn't matter how nice they are to everyone else... if they treat people they think are "below them" badly, I immediately see them differently.

I also can't help judging people who constantly talk over others and never let anyone finish a sentence. 😭

I mean if I'm being honest I'm pretty sure that I judge everybody not out loud by judge internally

And it's not that I actually judge I just read the person and especially if it's something that they said then I try to understand the manipulation behind it because we have to face it every word in the dictionary is some sort of manipulation

So I feel words as I'm looking into somebody's eyes when they say something because there's always some sort of hidden meaning behind what is said I mean even if you're not trying to do it it happens so

I might not judge the words that they use I do kind of judge the motive behind it

I don't like when people talk about other people because it is as if they're trying to make themselves look better

So when a friend might say oh don't go around that person they are bad

they did this and they did that and I have to look at them and say well okay thank you but I'll figure that out on my own

The weather's Petty or or premeditated is still there and there's something meaningful behind it and then at the same time they're just words and I have to understand that I have probably done the same thing too somehow somewhere without realizing it so this is a hard question for me and she's hard because I read people so fast and when you read somebody there's also an energy or an emotion it tells you everything else about whatever it is that's going on

It's kind of like loving somebody but not liking them you know you have your reasons for it and it's not a bad thing and it could be Petty but it means something to each and every one of us really

So I try not to judge people And if I do I usually Is that it all go Not unless there's something inside of me telling me warning warning warning And then I probably just don't even hang out with that person Even put myself in the position to be around them

I judge people how they are consistent or not consistent.

If you are not consistent I don’t respect you as much as you being consistent.
Shame on me for thinking you’d change if I associate myself in your company if it is a consistency I hate, but you keep some plans then flake on others then that gets me ticked off.

This works on GAG too. A lot of users preach certain things or say certain things, but their record shows different who they are and what they make themselves out to be. A lot of fake people out there who I don’t associate with.

I want to say I agree with these quotes by the asker, “can’t help judging people who constantly talk over others and never let anyone finish a sentence.”, “when someone is rude to a waiter, cashier, cleaner, or any customer service worker. It doesn't matter how nice they are to everyone else... if they treat people they think are "below them" badly, I immediately see them differently.” Totally am there with you 100%

Oh, another thing someone complained a long while ago that I was quoting and responding to their question or MyTake with providing quotes from them claiming I never did that with anyone else on here. Well if they are still surveying me, they have their answer lol. I’m consistent.

People who ignore the subconscious (virtually everyone).

If we are drama queens in relationships then it is because our parents fought like cats and dogs. I finally figured out that I must 1) Stop mid compulsion that drives me to try proving how I'm better or more humble than the peer. 2) Feel the pain of the compulsion slamming against me. 3) Grieve that event which has set the compulsion into motion, which is usually seeing parents fighting and me being silenced from reacting to it in any way (which internalized the theater into my subconscious).

I judge but I do not adjudicate. I form an understanding, "Veronika_p judges people with sick behavior but does not analyze what caused them to suffer this sickness". But I do not adjudicate you for it (I don't label you as a bad person.) ㅤ

Finchie40 · Answer

I agree with you on that as well , but I can’t stand people that are rude to someone for showing interest in them , especially right from the beginning, , like they have this sign flashing over their head , stating what they are into or not or what their current relationship status is , I think it’s so disrespectful to be rude to someone that finds you attractive or interesting to them , that took the chance of getting to know you , or taking a shit at you. there is no reason for it. So I hate when I witness that or experience that from people. Why I am never rude to someone that shows interest in me whether I find them attractive or not , there is no reason to be rude and disrespectful right away. I can understand if the person didn’t take no for an answer then being rude might be necessary but right from the beginning , not at all , some people think their shit doesn’t stink and they are in for a rude awakening when they realize it does

It’s all about LEG WIGGLERS or people that shake their legs while sitting.

The next time you go to a restaurant or a place where people are sitting take a look around & you will be surprised how many people wiggle or shake their legs.

It’s a freak show out there! I was at a restaurant sitting in a booth & two jokers behind me started wiggling their legs, it was annoying, I thought there was an earthquake & I moved to another table.

At the grocery store I secretly judge the people bagging your groceries especially the retarded baggers. Who the fuck throws cans on soup on top of eggs or double bags blueberries & puts a gallon of milk in a single bag? Seriously?

ShellyB · Answer

There are more than one! Some things I do not think are petty, for example I judge people for being rude to servers and store employees, but I don’t think that is petty. Petty things, hmm. I judge people for putting salt or anything on their food (when having that specific thing at that specific place for the first time) before they taste it! I don’t say anything but I note it.

Yes, I’ll be frank: I judge people who defend what is wrong and refuse to accept clearly evident facts, as well as truly bigoted types.

TrueConfection · Answer

I don’t think being rude is a petty thing at all and I’ll run the other way if someone is rude for sport.

My petty judging is in how they speak. Do they make eye contact? Are they sincere? Do they swear or use slang? Do they use double negatives?

HawkPerception · Answer

I dunno if I'd consider it petty, but when people are obese, it does bother me and I think "How do you let yourself become that fat? Do you not care about your body? If you had a partner would you care if your partner found you attractive or not?"

I just don't think there's ever an excuse to be fat and it says a lot about a person.

I'm sure there are plenty of other things, but that's the first thing that comes to mind
