Quite a few;

literally

  • if one repeats this in 5 seconds in a conversation.

like

  • not against saying like, but when is used in "describing" you will be judged.

obvi

  • ugh, I just hate this.

legit

  • When I hear legit, all I see is insecurities. DO YOUR RESEARCH, TRUST YOUR GUTS.

And yes, I'm millennial.

Criticizing people for voting 3rd party and then doing nothing to replace first past the post voting.

Okay, I very publicly judge these people. It's not a secret.

Being completely unaware of anyone else:

  • Standing in doorways, using your phone or having a conversation
  • Talking loudly when inappropriate, when I’m in pain at the doctors, I don’t want to hear about your roses
  • leaving your shopping trolley blocking the aisle sideways in the supermarket while looking for your stuff
  • driving down the middle of the road so everyone else has to pull over, when there’s plenty of room for two cars to pass
  • stopping in the middle of the road without indicating, while: looking for your destination, or having a conversation, or deciding what day it is
  • riding your delivery bike down the footpath at high speed weaving between pedestrians

As Jean-Paul Sartre said, “Hell is other people”.

Or stepping off an escalator and just stopping right there to get their bearings.

stopping in the middle of the road without indicating, while: looking for your destination, or having a conversation, or deciding what day it is

That's my new pet peeve. The thing is I don't remember seeing people do this in the past and certainly not frequently, but now I see it all the time. Mind-boggling selfishness. I think Covid rotted everyone's brains way more than we realize.

The 'brands' they are displaying.

I see people checking me and others out. What runners are they? Jordans or KMart? Is that a Lacoste or walmart? Is that a real Rolex or D&G handbag?

But for me, it's not judging them like you think.

I judge them flashing brands as a sign of insecurity, a need to appear wealthy and 'fit in', and a likely 'keep up with the Jones' jealous type.

So, I actually feel sad for them.

And, yes, I am aware it's super judgemental and I'm no doubt hypocritical as well, as there are some things I will buy certain brands for.

[–] lath@lemmy.world 6 points 18 hours ago

Difference is between buying a brand for style and buying it for quality.

Some companies have quietly admitted that the only difference between their stuff and cheap knockoffs is the brand name and it's fine for them because their customers don't care.

If you cannot chew with your mouth closed and you are older than 6 years, you should not be allowed to vote, operate heavy machinery or have children.

There are people who have a genuine problem breathing fully through their nose though.

What do you mean "secretly?" Fuck that.

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 6 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I judge people for spelling.

Easy stuff, too: emails; the ask; the spend; action this. People who can't pluralize or know what mass nouns are, or people who sound like fucking used-car salesmen, get to a different tier of respect than people who are actually adequate.

Leaving things they decided they don't want just wherever in a store. It's annoying as a customer, because now I have to dig through their mess to get the product I actually wanted, and even moreso as an employee.

At least put it back in the right department. The underpaid employees who have been there since before the store opened for the day really don't want to have to play the game of "How long has this ground beef been sitting in a produce basket, and how much product did we just lose?"

[–] weeeeum@lemmy.world 15 points 23 hours ago (7 children)

I remember a story of a guy talking about how the store reeked and smelled terrible. After doing tons of searching at the epicenter of the smell, turns out some guy hid a 5 pound beef brisket on the bottom shelf, hidden behind a bunch of breakfast cereal.

People using fahrenheit without adding a celsius conversion

"Passive income" if you describe yourself as having a passive income, I want nothing to do with you.

Passive income is a myth - all income requires labor... if you're getting income without putting in labor then you're stealing someone else's income.

People being shitty to customer service workers and utility, and people not being courteous to them.

Heck, I sometimes judge people for not thanking service workers and utility. For example: if a janitor lets you pass a hallway they've been busy cleaning, I'd silently judge you if you don't thank the janitor for letting you pass. Another example is in a fast food setting: if the person on the counter gives you your order, I'd silently judge you if you don't say "thank you".

Low curiousity/worldliness. Honestly makes me think someone is either dull or maybe depressed

I have a long list of people I would execute if I could get away with it. The transgressions that get you on the list are numerous and varied.
