Eyebrows that start half way above the eye, giving the person a permanently worried expression.

Keeping coffee in the jar it comes in

???

Do you mean instant coffee? Why would anyone decant instant coffee into another container?

summerlovinggirl · 15/07/2017 17:20

I judged the dad I saw today who said "will you stop dropping that fucking bottle" at the top of his voice in the street to his DD who was probably only 8/9.

EssieTregowan · 15/07/2017 17:21

LOVelyBath, I usually walk to the shop after the school run as school is one the way and the shop is two miles from home. If I need wine for the weekend I'll buy it then.

Oh fuck, they're judging me, aren't they?

The80sweregreat · 15/07/2017 17:21

i put coffee from a jar into another container.
i am common though!

EssieTregowan · 15/07/2017 17:22

Lass, surely you must have three matching tins for coffee, tea and sugar? What kind of monster doesn't?

EssieTregowan · 15/07/2017 17:23

I actually have three oversized Bonne Maman jam jars because I am all class.

Spikeyball · 15/07/2017 17:23

People who don't hold onto their toddlers when walking next to a road or in a car park. People who let their children stand in supermarket trolleys.

LassWiTheDelicateAir · 15/07/2017 17:25

I only use instant coffee for coffee flavouring in cakes. Ground coffee or beans gets put into an empty instant coffee jar to keep it fresh.

I had an awkward conversation about ear piercings on children with two of dd's friends. They are 4&5 and both have their ears pierced. They were showing me their earrings so I showed them mine. One of the girls then looked at my dd's ears and asked why they weren't pierced. Dd piped up that she's too little (she's 4) and I was a bit Blush. I'm just not keen on piercing babies' ears and I don't want the hassle of caring for them either. (Trying to cut dd's finger nails is enough trauma, never mind cleaning a piercing.) I don't judge though, the girls are bright, lively, polite and happy and their mum is lovely.

BuggerOffAndGoodDayToYou · 15/07/2017 17:29

My DD assures me that I am a very bad and "judgy" person.

I don't like babies with pierced ears. I hate seeing youngsters that have been allowed to get fat. Anything but water or milk in a baby bottle.

I don't really like net curtains either but I have them as we live on a bus route and I got fed up with seeing people having a good stare into my house.

LassWiTheDelicateAir · 15/07/2017 17:31

Goodness me, no. Sugar stays in its packet ; instant coffee stays in its jar; loose leaf teas get put into whatever tin is handy, including small cake tins, empty biscuit tins and a couple of tea caddies; tea bags don't cross the threshold.

TheGrumpySquirrel · 15/07/2017 17:31

Hmm I judge the beige fake 50s tins saying "coffee / sugar / tea" more! I keep my coffee in the original illy tin 😉

Wonders71 · 15/07/2017 17:31

I'm very judgy of a work colleague who can't work over 15hrs because it will impact on her housing benefit! Even though she has a partner goes out every weekend and drives a nice car!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 15/07/2017 17:31

Oh and I judge people who drink instant 😉
