Things you consider bad manners that others don’t

[Novasmum]

Inspired by an experience earlier today of having to listen to a man whistle for 10 minutes in GP waiting room.

Not only is it annoying but I do think it’s bad manners but I know other people wouldn’t class whistling as bad manners.

what’s yours?

People in a public place like a cafe, a restaurant, or even a bus or train and they are clearly having a text convo on their phone so it goes ping ping ping every 2 seconds. It’s really not necessary and winds me up.

Taking phones into the toilet

My pet peeve and that I think is SO RUDE but nobody else seems to is when I’m in the aisle seat on public transport and the person by the window stands up wanting to get off without saying anything. When I’m sat by the window I always say “sorry” or “excuse me please” or even just a smile to acknowledge the person on the aisle seat.
I know lots of people think this isn’t rude but it drives me mad!

Talking over people trying to say something in a group

that is considered rude though, the thread is about behaviour one sees as rude but society doesn't yet so many people are just posting obvious rude behaviour.

people chewing gum whilst they are talking to me. I can’t stand it!

Sister doesn't get it rude to point. She will also nudge people when someone else is talking. Just so rude she is loud and just says I can't help it I've got BPD. She's actually got worse with the so called BPD symptoms since diagnosed. I'm sure she does it on purpose for attention.

This. I have never been to a wedding where booze, other than table wine, was free. There was a thread on here recently about a wedding with a free tab and a guest got an expensive bottle of single malt whisky.

I've being to a few and it was lovely but not for 1 second was I expecting it. I think it's rude to expect it free.

People not indicating when driving, its bad manners to other road users and drives me mad, sadly my crystal ball isnt plugged in i dont know your pulling out...unless you INDICATE!

eh that's not bad manners, it's just dangerous and reckless behaviour that causes accidents.

That’s a really good one because I never would have thought of it in a million years, but it makes sense.
Most posts are either things that are obviously rude plus one or two that are just a bit bonkers

Pressure me all you likr. Even sit next to me, as long as there aren't other seats available. But be prepared for me to start stimming, and that includes both vocal and physical stimming.

I'm disabled too. If I have to sit, I bloody well need to sit. Wouldn't give two hoots about any stimming and would try my best to balance on one buttock if needed. Compromise innit.

As a non driver it's also frustrating for pedestrians. We have to get on with our day as well. We have better things we can be doing than waiting around watching to see which way ignoranuses are going. Usually by the time they pull out there's more traffic so still can't cross.

It's simple enough to put your phone on silent if you must be on your phone. I just turn it off. Your there to socialize not be on your phone.

I completely agree. Once a man actually put his hand on my head and vaulted over me to get out. Thanks for treating me like a piece of furniture!

But when you run out of toilet paper, the phone comes in handy especially if it has a leather case…..

Uh my older sister does this all the time. Often when I have a mouthful of food. Then can't understand why I'm not answering her. Once I answer her she never did it again.

This is another thing my sister does. Asking how much gifts cost or telling me how much gifts she's bought cost. She even expects me to know the cost of any food I buy. I asked her once why she always has to tell me the cost of everything? Because it's like rude. She's no done it since.

I always laugh at people walking down the street talking on Bluetooth and on the bus. It's rude but looks like they're talking to themselves.

Also loud people on public transport and I'm not just talking about kid's. Fully grown adults as well.

My daughter cannot physically blow her nose. I've tried to show her how for years. She has hay fever I've asked school and learning disabilty nurse but no success. Even got her a snot sucker which didn't work.

I agree with Bananarama, A parent stopping to speak to their child who is interrupting.
Children speaking over when adults are speaking.
And my pet hates are at the theatre when people answer their phone calls and have conversations during the performance, take selfies, and bring in hot food to enjoy their dinner (usually passing it around). Tickets are so expensive nowadays and I can't afford to go very often, but hate having it ruined by these slobs. Movies are different. Popcorn, etc and drinks are the norm.

What if you don't have a tissue sometimes you blow but doesn't clear all snot. Or there's people with disabilities like my daughter who at 18 still cannot blow her nose. I've tried, school have as well as LD nurse. She struggles with hayfever so really wish she would.

Never send food back for any reason? I mean I haven't in years but if it was undercooked or not what I ordered I would ...
