Things people do that make you cringe?

[Cleanfreshsheets]

People posting photos of their holiday on social media with a caption like “this is how my Monday morning is looking”. Like calm down Joanne, you’ll be back in the office by next Monday.

Middle management telling me they pay my wages.

People thinking that are different and edgy because they wear Dr Martens (I do still love the boots though)

@TheShellBeach Not only adults describing their abdomen as a 'tummy', 'stomach' or 'gut' but people that own one- referring to their vulva as a vagina! It amazes me nowadays with google, the amount of people not knowing they have 2 ovaries, 2 fallopian tubes, 1 uterus etc. Don't get me started with what a cervix is 🙄

No normally people would say can I have a latte, not can I GET a latte

Rod Stewart is the worst for this.. criiiiiinge!

Did you mean to quote someone?

Misused or absent apostrophes are my pet hate too. Grrrr 😕

I always say "May I have" because it's correct.

I drink squash. I think orange juice is disgusting, it’s been highly processed and sitting in huge vats for a year minimum. Fizzy drinks are similarly bad for you, even the diet ones.

A bottle of squash whilst no healthier at least allows you to control how much you put in a glass of water, and the bottle lasts a long time so you don’t feel forced to drink a bottle in 3 days.

Of course you’re allowed it. It’s not like you need my permission or anyone else’s to drink what you like. I just find it odd personally. It’s not like water is the only alternative to squash.

I think you were asked a rhetorical question, in light of your judgement of what strangers drink.

You really need to ask?

It's gross.

The entire thread is a judgement of sorts. What difference does it make to anyone else whether I, or any other stranger, thinks it’s odd that they drink squash?

Men who wear their trousers halfway down their backsides so their underwear is clearly visible. 🤮

Yeah, the 'bike rack'. Just looks so gross 😁

No normally people would say can I have a latte, not can I GET a latte

Not where I live. The point I was trying to make is that Can I GET might sound terrible to some people but to others (like me) it's perfectly normal.

People who think they know what other people are thinking.

"People thinking that are different and edgy because they wear Dr Martens" - How many people have actually told you they're wearing docs because they think it makes them cool and edgy? Them saying that would make me cringe, but somebody else confidently assuming they're thinking that would make me cringe just as much.

People who put their feet on the tables in the staff room (similar to the kids shoes in trolley thing).

Draw/drawer - email from colleague ‘ I’ve left the folder in my draw’

Colleagues who never offer to go to the shop, but always pipe up with ooh shall I have some chocolate? when you say you’re going.

parents who over do it - on a mountain train in Wales recently ‘ Oliver, can you see the sheep? Look there’s a sheep, what sound does the sheep make Oliver? Does it go baa?’ For 40 minutes on a loop, varied with a similar speech about cows. Don’t think Oliver could get a word in …….. 😂

Tattoos.

People who call people fucking cunts make me cringe.

A lot of people just are though...!! They make me cringe.

Women who drive big 4 by 4s and only do the school run and back

People who make a massive fuss about others being vegan or vegetarian when they just want to buy food /eat in peace. Yes, I know there are some particularly vegans who are a trial and deeply attention seeking, but jesus, the nonstop questioning of some people - what did you have for dinner yesterday? What are you going to have at the restaurant? Is there anything on the menu that you can eat? What's in your sandwich? AAAGGHH.

Bonus points for wearing sunglasses

It's just maternal and protective
I did it without thinking...

Exactly that , shoes that an 8 years old would wear for school that are for older women . Usually sold in Clark’s I’ll see if I can find an image.

Fine if u live or come from US but not if you are anywhere in the U.K. it’s not regional at all, but crappy American reality TV language creeping in, like bangs instead of having a fringe.
