What do you silently judge people for?

[Shandan35]

I would say
Talking on public transport , wish they would be quiet.

Using a keyworker place when one is a stay at home parent (one of the parents at school is doing this with her young children). I am judging big style (my husband is a keyworker and I am not sending the youngest in even though it would help as I am caring for a disabled adult child), it is beyond selfish.

(No doubt I will get judged for judging but beyond caring).

Everything

I can usually nail someone's persona and interests by way they present themselves. It makes everything impossible to avoid judging!

But if you want specifics, people who:

Drive an SUV
Own a hot tub
Think they've 'visited' a country despite never leaving an all-inclusive resort
Gin drinkers
Display even the tiniest interest in reality tv
People with zero knowledge of the world, history, science etc
Brexit voters
Conservatives
Posting endless updates on Fb of all the 'must be seen' places they've been
Thinking 'gardening' is paving over the entire garden with slabs/astro turf
Mongrel (sorry 'pedigree') owners of cockapoos, labradoodles etc
Anyone with a Live Laugh Love type motif in their home
Like football

Basically.... feckless, uneducated, closed minded, narcissistic show offs

People who use ‘uneducated’ when they mean ‘ill-educated’. Considering education is mandatory in this country, I highly doubt you have come across many uneducated people.

You’re my favourite 😁👌

@Juno231 can you explain what you mean by ‘ Not cutting open that stitch that holds a slit/hem together on new coats/skirts whatever (SO many people walk around with these not knowing they should be cut off??)’

Please? Absolutely not a clue what you’re referring to here?

People who let their dogs bound up to you and your dc’s and shout “don’t worry, he’s friendly!”. I really don’t fucking care - get your muddy, untrained hound away from me and my child!

How do you know it was much easier with a smaller gap, than a larger gap, if you only had two?[/quote]
Who said I only had 2?

I had 2 very close in age, then a (medium) gap, then another 2 close in age. Purely for boring financial reasons.

I drive an SUV and drink the occasional gin, I guess I'm feckless and uneducated despite my good job and education 😆

I really judge smoking around kids and to a lesser degree putting kids in forward facing car seats before 15 months. Especially if comments are made about me being "cruel" for deciding to rear face DS.

Hmmm interesting thread.

I judge arm yankers, you know when a toddler is playing up a bit and the mum or dad really yanks them by the arm. I judge that. Harshly. And I would say something.

A woman did it once in the public baths and smacked her daughter. It was horrible. But I am glad I spoke to her about it. And no I didn’t shout at her, or berate. But I did say that it was too hard and too much and the little girl didn’t deserve it. We did go on to have a much more productive chat about life and parenting. So it worked out. I hope that o changed her mindset about treating a kid like that. It’s never ok to do that. Never.

People who have big fancy weddings.

Fat toddlers and children

Dh had a friend who was really into buying designer clothes and would walk around with the little white label on the sleeve of his suits - which is supposed to be cut off - still on. We told him you’re supposed to snip it off but he insisted we were wrong and said “why would I spend £1k on a suit if no one can even tell where it’s from?”

Yes I would like to know this too! I am googling images of coats to try and figure out what the poster meant

Drinking and smoking when pregnant - standard. But walking in killer heels when pregnant is also something I think WTF!

Kids packed lunches full of crap food

@LH1987
Don't worry about what some random thinks love

I probably get judged for being a total mess on the school run, but I wouldn't be if I cared what they thought. However, I do somewhat judge people with kids over 5 (before then we're all demented) forgetting to take the label off the bottom of their shoes. How??

Anti Vaxxers.

@LH1987 please don't let judgey strangers make you feel like that. We all do the best we can for our kids. I was a SAHM and I am fairly certain I have screwed up in a million ways. Stay strong and enjoy your little one

@Onadifferentuniverse @Whatisapension it's where there is a slit at the back, the slit is often closed with a little x that you're meant to cut.

Oh this drives me nuts, there so convinced and there's no talking to them.

For being overweight....

People who have big fancy weddings.

People who judge others for having the kind of wedding they would’ve liked to have, but couldn’t afford. Theirs usually involved the church hall, a few packs of sausage rolls and flowers/cake made by their auntie Barbara. I have been to weddings like this as well as expensive ones and really enjoyed all of them because they are about the marriage of people I care about.

People should have the kind of wedding they want and people who don’t want to go, shouldn’t go. Not attend and then bitch about it.

At the moment, not wearing masks properly is a big one for me.

Wearing huge amounts of make-up.
Being obese.
Body odour.
Swearing/ speaking impolitely in public.
Irritating/ inconsiderate behaviour in public e.g. listening to music loudly on the bus

Rude children

People who feel threatened by the knowledge that not everyone does things the same way as them.
