My own personal judgement is reserved for those people who hold their knife like a pen.

I agree Fanjo, people are too free to judge. Apart from the racism, sexism, cruelty type things, there are a lot of mean posts. Eg the fat issue - how do you know why the particular individuals are overweight? If you are lucky and have an easy, happy life, it's more simple to spend time exercising, avoiding unhealthy food, as your needs for happiness are met elsewhere. But for some people, a takeaway/packet of crisps/McDonalds may be the only treat they get. The same applies to some of the other judgments. I am not fat, but think the comments about overweight people are so mean. I am not keen on the thin leggings look either, but why on earth would I judge someone else for this? I appreciate that judging is what this thread is all about, but

Strangely the main thing I judge is the judging of other people on appearance. It pisses me right off and I really loathe reading or hearing mean and unpleasant judgements in this vein. It makes me want to shake the person making the judgement. I find it as unpleasant and revolting as racism, sexism and homophobia - sometimes I think it is the last bastion of nasty unwarranted hatred and misplaced superiority.

I get judgy about babies, toddlers and children being sunburnt. .. there is absolutely no need for it... I can feel my blood pressure rising at the thought. ...

Oh and Lazy parenting - discipline your kids ffs!

kids who think saying 'excuse me mummy, excuse me mummy, excuse me mummy' is being polite.....

my mum thinking everything I have that she has (dvd's etc) are automatically hers....WHY cant I have the same music/films ffs!

My mum thinking that she has to wake me up 4 mins before my alarm comes off snooze 'in case I am late' EVERY FACKIN DAY (yes, I love with my mother)

People who think I live with my mother because I cant afford to live alone and I get my meals cooked for me (she cant cook, AT ALL and despite all of the above I like the adult company)

Rabbitcar Thanks lovely post.

this thread is really horrible to make judgements on people not reaching their full potential (lack of confidence and self belief holds many people back), or their size and what they are wearing when you have no idea why they are overweight and what is it to you what they are wearing

this thread has really highlighted that there are some people on here with some very nasty opinions and really what it comes down to is sneering at others

why does anyone feel it necessary to judge others when they are not harming anyone

PoirotsMoustache · 15/04/2014 12:55

Last night I was out for dinner, and I noticed I held my knife like a pen. I just couldn't seem to manage holding it any differently. This morning, at home, I was tucking into my egg on toast and I realised I was holding my knife like you're 'supposed' to.

I bet people were judging the hell out of me last night - why oh why couldn't that have happened in the privacy of my own home? Sad

Ev1lEdna · 15/04/2014 12:56

Have just read your post too Rabbitcar well said. I just saw the thread title and OP and my response was the first thing that sprang to mind. I'm glad I'm not alone in my opinion.

Wickeddevil · 15/04/2014 12:56

I am off to Aldi soon to buy snacks for my 19 year old DS to go away to a cadet camp. I will be buying a lot of high calorie, convenience shit & no fruit & veg.

I am going to make some people's day aren't I?

PoirotsMoustache · 15/04/2014 12:58

I totally judge the friends and families of those people who go on X-Factor or Britains Got Talent and the like, when they really cannot sing, or they have absolutely no ability to do the talent they are attempting to do.

If those friends and family members really cared about them, they'd stop them from doing it altogether.

OhChristHasRisenFenton · 15/04/2014 12:59

People who dress their dogs up in ridiculous costumes.

Oh Hello HoneyDragon, didn't see you there.

dunsborough · 15/04/2014 12:59

Ooh good one Poirot! Agreed.

gasfiredbottom · 15/04/2014 13:00

people who judge me for what my child eats.

I tell you once only. she refused to eat for weeks on end and was hospitalised for it.....so forgive me if i dont turn every meal into a battle and force feed her vegetables. i have been so desperate to get her to eat anything, im just so releived she eats anything.

I used to feel opionionated about what kids eat... until i met my daughter who had feeding issues from the minute she was born.

I think that anyone who force feeds thier kids is abusive.

Rabbitcar · 15/04/2014 13:00

Fanjo Thanks

FreudiansSlipper · 15/04/2014 13:01

I am a few stone overweight (but do have a medical condition must remember to wear sticker on forehead to inform others) and I let ds run around when we are at the pub

I had my ears pierced at 3

if I had a daughter I would allow her to have her ears pierced at 3 if she wanted them done

I think it looks cute (not hoops) Grin
