Opinions I form about people

[Andyouarebecause]

1. People who apply nail polish on top of chipped polish are generally false/pretentious

1. People who go out of their way to keep their downstairs neat but couldn't care about upstairs, are the "keeping up appearances" types

I know I might be wrong, but I don't care and if you don't care join in with your opinions

Cara...It's not disingenuous to say that I try not to judge but occasionally fail. It's human.

I'm judging you to be not the kind of person I'd want to know from your posts. See, I failed again."

Cool

Correction:

Local authorities using the expression "Winter Holidays" instead of "Christmas Holidays". Grrrr

Christmas cards with the message "Season's Greetings" inside. I always add the Christmas part that they are conveniently forgetting.

"YouHadMeAtCake

Definitely ear piercing in babies! Funny enough we bumped into a couple we know last weekend , looked into see their baby girl and ugh, ears pierced and she's 3 months old ffs! I instantly judged them.

Babies in headbands, with shoes on.

People with those big wordy decal things on their walls , usually some cheesy cliche.

Women with weird hair colours or bits of colour , usually red or purple . Trying to be edgy and a bit cool.

Yes To disliking the whole Michael Kors thing

Yes to the Yoonique naming of children , ridiculous.

Grown women in their 30s upward using the word bae and squad whilst posting numerous selfies and group duck face photos in toilets on the "best night ever with my squad" then doing the same the next weekend and it's always the best night ever in the same place.

Not picking up your Dog poop , I really fucking judge that.

People who ask or do in fact get a dog when they work full time, can't afford it etc. people who don't look after animals and children . Oh yes I judge that massively.

I also judge those who come on threads like this to say we shouldn't judge when in fact EVERYBODY does, it's human nature. They're also judging people who choose to judge.

Oh OP. I love a good judge grin"

See, I like 'Seasons Greetings'. I'm not a Christian so Christmas isn't about Jesus for me, it's more of a midwinter gathering.

I also thought the upstairs/downstairs reference was a euphemism and couldn't make sense of it.

I don't wear any nail polish ever, is that ok?

People who get huffy on threads about choices we all make. So sad.

The only thing that bothers me is judgemental people tbh! Maybe those who tidy downstairs more are just trying to keep up with the basics.

As for chipped nails, who has time to reapply every day. Also who looks that closely at other peoples nails?!

I used to be perfectly turned out, lovely nails, perfect show home. I was miserable keeping up with it all! So maybe those cutting corners have found a balance and couldn't give a shit😞

Not wearing nail polish ever is very classy. See Queen link

One thing I massively, hugely, unrepentantly judged recently was a woman who came into the tattoo shop I work in, with her 15yo daughter. Her daughter wanted a tattoo.

I explained the law to her. She threw a fit and said 'But I'm here giving my consent! You legally have to do it if I consent!' No, we don't. And we won't.

She started saying how pathetic we were, and flounced out saying we'd lost a customer, because she knows 'a really good home tattooist who'd do it, and MUCH CHEAPER!'

That's fine love. You take her to this well known hive of hepatitis, and let your poor daughter live with the bloody consequences, you rude, senseless and utterly selfish asshole. And don't you dare come back to us and complain when she develops a raging staph infection, like so many of his previous 'customers'.

So yeah, I judged that.

Accessorised car:
Matte polish on cars
Fashionable rims

I love nail polish and coloured hair. But I'm an adult and a complete slattern. I don't even do downstairs (house or hair)
People who don't pick up their dog poo. That includes;
People who stick and flick or hang a bag in a tree or bury it on a beach. You are ruining the place for everyone else.
People who pierce their babies ears, headbands, put them in shoes or new designer label clothes.
People who say Pardon or worry about if a thing is proper or common or use Non U (which means not one of us),
People who buy a puppy or kitten at Christmas and dump it in the New Year.

Men who wear flip-flops and shorts in December. Like the bellend I saw just a couple of days ago.

God I love a good judging.

I judge me, for making a list of things to do today, yet it's nearly lunchtime and I'm still in my pyjamas, having done precisely bugger all.

me too Worra

My list of things to do is getting longer and longer but ll I've done is watch extreme couponing and shared toast with the baby.

I'm an utter slattern though so these threads always have people judging stuff I do all the time.

I love extreme couponing misses point of thread

I judge people who put statuses starting : 99% of my friends won't post this
And appear to believe they are making some kind of meaningful difference by having a status for 'an hour'

So I'm very classy because I don't wear nail polish? And there was me thinking it was just sheer incompetence laziness on my part that I haven't been able to master the art of painting my right hand with my left hand so it always looks a bloody mess. if I paint my toenails?

Do I judge? Yes, but not stuff like how people dress themselves or their babies or how messy they keep the upstairs (I envy them, I don't have an upstairs so I have to keep my whole house clean in case judgey twats people like the OP come by) or their taste in interior decor.

I judge people who think 'just having a bit of fun' is a valid excuse for 'Mean Girl' taunting and sniggering about others.

OP and Cara, it's Wednesday, I guess you're both wearing pink.

Possibly missing the point, but it seems that the items on this thread fall into three categories, things that are objectively bad/wrong (obviously people should pick up dog mess); things that are a conscious choice and a matter of taste; things people can't help.

A couple of things mentioned here are things disabled people might not be able to help, which is a bit .

My quiestion is what is non-U?! I've seen it so many times recently and I'm at a loss!

I judge the people on extreme couponing. Unless it's getting donated there is no reason I can think of to buy 62 bottles of mustard just because you get it for pennies.

People who post "quote" memes about "strong women" and suchlike are of flimsy moral fibre.

People who start judgey threads. Saying no names.

Bold labelling on clothes
Glitters on cell phones
Nails longer than 5mm

Nope cara. My house has a lounge. A room for lounging in. With my tv and sofa in it. Yours may have a sitting or drawing room for sitting or drawing in I guess. Or it may not have any rooms and be one big open space. You do you.

Also, as a Christian I quite like seasons greetings. Knowing that this time of year is not just celebratory for me. And those of other faiths pay council tax (especially round here) so should get some enjoyment out of lights and other council activities.

I may choose not to pierce my daughter's ears or put her in a flowery head band or shoes in a pram but I don't judge you for doing so. If I'd had one more 'oh what a handsome young man' I too may have been tempted.

I have loads of books now. Growing up I did not. I was taken to a library weekly and devoured them 6 at a time. So no I don't judge you for a home without books. Although do think it sad that not every child has access in the way I did. But then they may not enjoy reading so much and as such get more done!

Nor do I judge people for being realistic about what their child can or cannot do. So limits on early morning activities may be appropriate for that child or that family. They are not mine so why judge?

Goodness save all this righteous upset for those who deserve it.

U and non-U means upper class or not.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/U_and_non-U_English

Ooo I'm a mix of that. I suspect though my U-words come more from lower class background seeping in to my language than from any upper class-ness.

But I am unashamedly middle class. With all of the 'aspirational' language that comes with it.

I suppose it is just ways to identify your own tribe better. For some that tribe is very dependent upon language used.

Before I get all holier than thou, I suspect I would struggle to communicate clearly with some young folk and their chosen idioms (that is the point of course, to exclude old farts like me).
