to dislike these types of people?

Purposely obtuse people— I can understand if someone genuinely can’t understand something and needs clarification but I dislike the people who ask questions like “is the grass green” or “why is the sky blue” obviously I’ve exaggerated the questions but do you get what I mean?

chatterboxes— I love a good natter but I’m talking about the people who only want the attention to be on them and how they did this and did that, and when they cut into you when your speaking!! Especially when they try and take the spotlight out of everything you do or interrupt you when speaking with a group of people..

and ageplayers— those people who pretend they are a child (like a ten year old) when they are most obviously not!! “What is sexual intercorse (have probably spelt that wrong..)” “whats a (genital)”… it especially rises with sexual terms or just general basic stuff. I wouldn’t mind if it was somebody relearning or learning English but I absolutely despise people who try to act cute about things like this…

what type of people do you dislike I need to know I’m not just on a rant here…

I think it might be called 'being disingenuous'. In which case, I hate it too. 😀

Most of this just sounds like neurodiversity and humor/attempts at connection. Judge not, maybe?

So all of these are people who are pretending to be something theyre not and putting on an act?

Like men in dresses? Enabled by so many and assisted to push real women and girls out of the way.....
