    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: I judge... : In addition to this, I judge people who wait until they get to the very front of a busy security checkpoint line to start unbuckling their belt, taking off shoes, trying to find their ID and boarding pass, throwing liquids away, and grabbing bins (or worse, just start getting their kids' stuff situated/unloaded). By the time I am within reaching distance of the table with the bins, I've got shoes in hand, jacket off, ziploc of liquids pulled out, ID and boarding pass ready, and I have to stand there in my socks waiting for people to realize what's happening. I can't imagine this is everyone's first time flying.

    I get so nervous about "performing" quickly at the front of the security line that I prep my carry on at home and point everything out, repeatedly, to Phil, in like a dry run through: "Ok, so my little baggine of liquids is right here in the front, and my boarding pass is right in the front pocket of my backpack and I paperclipped my ID to it, and I put my wallet behind that so I can put my ID right back where it belongs immediately and and"

    I get so nervous about making the people behind me mad that since I only own one belt (one of those ones with metal studs that sets off the detector without fail) I refuse to even wear it and just hold my pants up all day. Phil draws the line at me leaving my shoes untied for speedy removal, though.

  • I judge all these things.  I've realized not so recently that I'm incredibly judgemental.  And I'm ok with that. 

    I judge the people who consistently park in the handicapped spot in front of our apartment building without tags or sticker.  Even though no one handicapped lives here.  I also judge the complex for having a handicapped space but not being handicapped accessible.  That just doesn't quite compute.
  • i judge people who quote scripture in their fb statuses. it's annoying.
  • I judge that pack of people who stand right in front of the boarding gate when they know they aren't boarding first or second.  It isn't leaving without you I promise.  But no, go ahead and form a little human wall so no one can go through and the entire process gets slowed down.  Idiots.

    "Whatever East. You're just mad I RSVP'd "lame" to your pre-wedding sleepover."
  • Oh, and as for the people I judge - the ones who have an excuse EVERY TIME. For everything. I had 16 examples here of all the same person but it was getting repetitive. Basically, if you've screwed something up once and have a legit excuse, fine. But over and over? I don't want the whole song and dance. You effed up? Whatever. Fix it, spare me the, "Well, what had happened was -- " DON'T CARE. FIX.

  • I judge people who interupt me when im thinking of something to type here and make me forget what I was going to say I judge. Im talking about my husband right now.

    I also judge people who use EVERY application on facebook and publish everything they do on them.

    [QUOTE]I judge people who make ridiculous New Years Resolutions.  "Oh I'm going to lose 40 pounds and go to the gym four days a week and quit smoking and read three books a week and save at least one starving baby from Kenya a month"  Shut up.  No you're not.  If you had wanted to actually do any of those things, you probably would have at least started working towards them on one of the previous 365 days, sorry. 
    Posted by eastunder1[/QUOTE]

    I judge this too, hard--and this is why I don't make New Years resolutions.  Not to mention the NYR gym goers make me want to punch people through the month of January.  Why bother guys?  You know a month of working out will get you nowhere in life. 
  • I judge my old friend from HS who would use her grandmothers car as her car because her grandmother didn't use it. Well grandmom had a HC thing to put on her car... and friend would use this to park in the spaces. I used to get soooo heated.
  • People who go grocery shopping and have no sense of cart etiquette. If you need to stop and look for something, pull your cart over to the side so everyone else can get by. Do not stop in the middle of the aisle and glare at me as I try to maneuver around your cart.

    My prep is motivated by nervousness too, or in not wanting to overtax myself before flying (I get really anxious when I fly). I also make sure my magazines and water are at the top of my carry-on before I board so that I can just get in my seat, stash my bag, and have what I need for the flight handy. It's really awkward trying to grab my backpack from underneath the seat in front of me during the flight... I always end up with my head shoved in someone's lap.

    I judge people who don't pull over for ambulances, or who tag on to the end of them to get ahead while everyone is pulled over. Asses.

    I had something similar like this happen yesterday. I walked down an aisle and needed to get something down at the very end. When I was reaching the middle of the aisle, there was a woman kneeled down looking at something on the bottom shelf and had her cart directly behind her blocking the rest of the aisle. I walked up to her, thinking she would move, even after I muttered "Excuse me".. she wouldn't budge. So I had to walk all the way around. So rude.

  • Oh, and I judge the biitch with the "jesus loves you" license plate for yelling at my dog. Guess what lady, if you sit out on your front porch and decide to throw bread all over your lawn for the birds, and happen to throw a piece a foot away from my dog as we're walking past, she's going to think it's meant for her and try to eat it. Yell at her again and you'll wake up to dog poo in your mailbox.

  • I judge people who assume that everyone on the opposite end of the political spectrum is dumb.

    My Republican uncle goes on and on about how all liberals are idiots.  Several of my liberal FB friends go on and on about how dumb conservatives are. 

    Intelligent minds can disagree, guys.  It's okay.

  • I judge people who drive just under the speed limit, who take half an hour turning left or right, dont use blinkers, use their breaks too often for no good reason, who speed up if I try to merge infront of them, who dont use the turning lane to turn and instead leave half their car in the regular traffic lane rather than get the entire way over, and who generally drive like douche bags.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: I judge... : [QUOTE] The douche who took my parking space after I shoveled. OMG hershey, when I still lived at my parents' (long time ago) we had a major snowstorm and my dad & I took turns shoveling one of the cars out. Exhausting, hours long shovelling. I think we actually shovelled so he could get to my Grandpap's to take him some things. When he came back, someone had taken the spot. And it was SO OBVIOUS that we had shovelled ourselves out....I BEGGED my dad to let me shovel the guy back in, but he wouldn't let me. However, my dad did back our other car up almost to his bumper.  Behind the guy was a phone pole, which means when the guy DID leave, he had to back up an inch, up an inch, back an inch etc about a million times to be able to get out. I'm still mad he wouldn't let me shovel his tires in.

    HaHa..That's awesome.  Wish I would of thought of shoveling him in.

    oh yes, this this this. i'm famous for rolling me eyes when people start throwing that word around.

    i judge myself for becoming addicted to facebook apps when the knot started sucking. apparently, i need internet addictions to keep me sane at work. i'm ashamed. the knot is getting better, though, so hopefully i can wean myself off of sorority life. sigh. what happened to me?

    and ditto judging people who think individuals on the other end of the political spectrum are idiots. i know as many intelligent people who disagree with me as i do intelligent people who agree with me.
  • I was that person with the liquids on our honeymoon.  We had bought like 5 bottles of duty free liquor and I originally had packed them all in our bags that were being checked - but while checking the bags the heaviest was last to be weighed and over weight so we had to cram about 30 pounds of stuff onto our carry on luggage because they'd already sent the other baggage away and in the scramble of changing things around to get the one bag to 50 pounds I put a bottle of liquor in my carry on. 

    I totally got pulled to the side and had to throw away an entire unopened bottle of liquor.  I was so sad, ashamed and mad at myself.  That was a nice big bottle of liquor I had to part with.
  • I judge the Walmart checkout clerks (on those rare occasions I can bring myself to go there) who glare at me and sigh this long-suffering sigh when I ask them to use my reusable shopping bags for bagging my stuff, rather than the flimsy plastic ones. Look, azzhat, I'm saving YOUR employer money so maybe you can keep this shitty job a little longer, and doing my part to cut down on the use of fossil fuels.
  • I judge people who carry on phone conversations in public/office restrooms.  Is your work environment so restrictive that you can't take a 5-minute break to make that call?  Or is the call soooo important that it can't be interrupted while you use the restroom?  REALLY????  Neither?  Ok then - hang up the f-ing phone and let me tinkle and flush in peace!!!  Yell

    (this just happened - God I hate when this happens)

    I so totally want to rip a HUGE loud fart when someone is doing this. Oh yeah, I will flush. Sometimes multiple times.
  • I encountered this when I was a bartender, and now I give people the side eye majorly for it. When someone walks into a gas station, restaurant, bar, etc., and the person behind the counter says, "Hi, how are you?" and person responds with "I need a table for 2/bud light/gas on pump whatever/etc." That wasn't the question. Someone is being nice to you. Take the 2 seconds to say, "Fine/terrible day/whatever."

    YES!  Restrooms should be silent zones.  I used to feel bad flushing but then I realized that its not my problem if the person on the other line hears a flush - I'm not the idiot that brought the phone into the stall.  So now I flush away.
