We’re big fans of human beings in general, but oh my Lord, sometimes they’re so annoying, we wish we could mind-control them into being better. Humanity needs an upgrade, a software patch: the first thing that should be phased out are those pesky little behaviors that irritate us. That frustrate us. That make us rant and rave on the internet and to our friends.
Bored Panda has compiled a detailed list of these annoying things that people do, big and small, all for your viewing (dis)pleasure. They’re likely to get your heart rate up, so remember to breathe and think calming thoughts throughout. Putting stickers on camera lenses, leaving restaurant tables messy, and refusing to queue properly are just a few of the maddening things lying at the tip of the iceberg. Though that last one might irk Brits more than anyone else.
As you’re scrolling down, remember to upvote the photos that you related to the most, dear Pandas. We’re also very curious about what other things annoy the ever-loving frick out of you, so be sure to write up a comment and post it at the bottom of this list. Ready to rage? Let’s go!

People Who Do This Are Just The Worst
This attitude "i don't give a s**t about anything or anyone" can make me crazy honestly!
Load More Replies...Do they do that where you live? Here they have to throw it away because the cold chain has been broken
Load More Replies...Worst one I ever saw was a gallon of ice cream left on a non-refrigerated shelf early in the day. It had melted and oozed out of the carton and over the product on the 4 shelves below it and puddled on the floor.
Eww. That must have turned sticky and difficult to clean everything up
Load More Replies...I always felt that these people are worse than actual thieves. At least a thief will make use of the goods, these people just make sure it goes to waste!
Yes I used to work for a grocery store. I kept smelling rancid meet but couldn't find it. It was stuffed in the middle of storage containers.
People Who Constantly Block The Isles Of Stores To Stand Around And Chat
But then they look at you as if you're the rude one!!!!
Load More Replies...Perhaps it's the photo that's incorrect and it's referring to an epidemic of mass old lady chatting in the Isle of Wight
Load More Replies...I've crashed my cart into theirs and pushed past. Probably makes me an a*****e, but there are just some days all my f***s are gone.
Perfect! I would steal it if I wasn't an introvert who despises any interaction
Load More Replies...I have found just saying excuse me will get an apology, and they will move out of the way, but it is annoying
If you are lucky you will get apology but quite often i have the looks "why are you bothering our chat?"
Load More Replies...This and the people who feel the need to shop right down the center of an aisle so you can’t get around on either side
These are same self absorbed people that stop to chat at the airport, with their luggage stretched out all around them and blocking the way in halls while people are rushing to get past them!
People That Park Like This
Some assholes do that deliberately, they don't want any other cars getting too close and maybe scratching the paintwork. That's far more important than other people's need to park!
Which almost guarantees someone will key their vehicle....
Load More Replies...We have a neighbour who has an old Land Rover that he uses for work, and he likes to park so close that he blocks the drivers' door when he sees someone park like this
Those kind of parkers deserve to have shopping carts zip tied to their door handle.
I have a theory that all Ram drivers are jerks. Like, anytime someone is tailgating with their high beams on, I promise it's a Ram.
Executive coach Dr. Marcia Reynolds notes on Psychology Today that we should save our energy for serious fights instead of wasting it on everyone who annoys us even slightly. Minor conflicts aren’t worth getting stormy about, even if we might want to teach someone a well-earned lesson.
According to Dr. Reynolds if you “shift your attention elsewhere” and remove the energy from the fight, you might surprise the person who’s currently making your life a living hell. It’s a different path that’s available to us: instead of making the person go into their defensive mode and stick to their story, now they’re wondering what exactly is going on.
For The Sake Of All Love That Is Holy, If You Do This, Please Pick A Side And Get Out Of The Damn Way
Prior to the ubiquitous growth of e-vehicles, it's easy enough to move to the side when you hear one coming behind you. At the same time, I've also encountered people who will *scream* at you if you go within a nanomillimeter of their parked car, with or without a trolley, so walking in the middle then makes sense. Combine the two and you can get people of a certain age who are not quick on their feet attempting to move out of the way because they'll be screamed at by the parked car owners and honked at by the drivers and it's no wonder so many older people no longer give a flying Frick.
Who cares about e-vehicles... if pedestrians would just walk on the side ALL THE TIME, there wouldn't be an issue. I never walk right down the middle or in one of the lanes. Be courteous to others.
Load More Replies...My hybrid is so quiet that people don't realize I'm there when I'm this close, the temptation to keep getting closer and closer and maybe give them a nudge with the bumper is SO strong...
There's been some talk of making electric car manufacturers put some kind of whistle on the outside that would sound so that blind people can hear them coming. People like above tho, nothing like getting within 2" of their backside and slamming on the horn. ...ok, I wouldn't do that but I can fantasize
Load More Replies...I almost got hit by car that ended up back up into me. Apparently I was in her blind spot cos I was too close to her car. Pedestrians can never be in a satisfactory safe place when walking in a parking lot. There's no sidewalk or pedestrian path. There should be. Cars aren't supposed to be whizzing around in them, anyways.
Or the cars that block the way because theyvare waiting for someone to load their groceries so they can pull in their spot.
Wandering like cows in a field. Sometimes I can't resist the urge to Mooo.
I think this is a problem with parking lot design. There's essentially no place to walk in most parking lots that won't be in the way, especially with mobility aids and/or shopping carts. There are designs that address this by providing access aisles between the rows of parked cars, but the aisles take up a lot of room, so it means fewer spaces to park. In the U.S., cars mostly win out in situations like this.
I think it's fine to walk in the middle for safety (people in cars not looking when backing out and such), but if you're able to hear the cars around you, listen. Don't go off in your own little world. And if you hear a car coming near you, check around, if it's behind you, move over to let them pass then go back to walking. Simple. But I've no problem with people doing this if they have hearing problems (probably just can't hear the cars. Fair) or are blind (likely concentrating more on where they're going, also fair).
When People Drape Their Hair Over The Backs Of Chairs
Why would anyone think it’s acceptable to do that? I’m genuinely confused how someone can be that rude.
Yes but it would be funny to just ignore the hair and use the fold down tray as if the hair doesn’t exist…
Load More Replies...Someone literally did that in this situation, and the video went viral: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lv54ipQx_5c
Load More Replies...I’d totally slam her hair inside the seat tray and lock it….then go to the bathroom…
I was going to suggest tying to the the table, but that would be quicker!
Load More Replies...I've done this. Once. With much much shorter hair. The passenger behind asked me to take it back over. I was mortified. It hadn't registered with me what I'd been doing.
I was just thinking how many people chew gum on planes to keep their ears from popping. Dual purpose, huh?
Load More Replies...That's revolting. Not only for the passenger behind but also for the owner of the hair. Aeroplanes are only thoroughly deep cleaned and disinfected every 30-45 days. I don't want to know how many peoples' oily scalps and head sweat are on those headrests. Eugh, I just made myself queasy x-D
But that is the sameforevery lengt of hair. For a bald person it would be the oils of their scalps and necks 🤷♀️
Load More Replies...Yep, that's an immediate flight attendant call. I'm not dealing with the 'thing'
I Had To Get Into My Car From The Passenger Seat Because This Person Doesn’t Know What The White Lines Are For
Amazon sells 'fake tickets' that you can put on people's car for things like this.
Load More Replies...I like the irony that the badly parked car is a "courtesy vehicle"....
It could say "discourtesy vehicle"...can't tell for sure. 😁
Load More Replies...However we don't know how the situation was when this car parked....maybe he parked like an asshole cause there was an asshole next to that car
This is always my thought. I really try to assume positive intent... they're not the @-hole... the @-hole was in the previously parked vehicle... or the one before that... and the original @-hole was a panicked single dad, rushing into the store to buy feminine products for his 13 year old daughter, who just started menstruating, so he clearly had more important things on his mind than staying between the white lines and we can forgive him.
Load More Replies...Someone did it to me once. I punched his passenger door before leaving. Incredibly satisfying 😂
Not in parking garage like this, where there will be very easy CCTV proof of you leaving your car with known numberplate doing that.
Load More Replies...Oh the irony if this being a "courtesy" vehicle 😆 They certainly weren't courteous with their parking!
This! When I'm opening the car door, even though they're at fault for being a stupid parker, I have to avoid touching their car with my door. These people then get mad if there's a dent in their car.
Had to do this too so left a very rude note for them. They came back as I was driving off so they got a good earful too. Cretins
Body language, however, is just as important as our words. “Manage your non-verbal behavior. If you are going to stay out of the fight, don't roll your eyes, mutter under your breath, or make an ugly face as you turn away. You are still sparking the fire with your gestures,” Dr. Reynolds explains.
“The best thing to do is take a big breath, let it out slowly, and focus on breathing comfortably. You are strong when you control your reactions. The disrespect the person is showing has nothing to do with you personally.”
These Girls Taking Up 2 Seats Each While Other People Have To Stand
Well I would take their feet down and sit! This is totally annoying and selfish!
It is anyhow completely rude to put your feet on a seat!
Load More Replies...Years ago, my then 70 year old father started an argument with a bunch of teenagers about this... at the end, he threwed them out of the bus. Don' t mess with an ancient steel worker
I see this all the time in my school's campus shuttle. I just sit comfortably on their legs.
Yep, and their dirty shoes on something I have to then sit on. Cretins.
Why aren't the people standing up telling those girls to move and sod off. In England (I assume it's probably the same in a lot of countries), the seats at the front are for disabled people, or the elderly etc. If you sit on one and somebody gets on the bus who matches the aforementioned, you have to move. Other passengers don't dig it either and there's at least one person who'll go on about 'respect for the elderly' or something relevant to that particular person and back you up, thus humiliating the girls (who are total bell ends) and they get off at the next stop. Selfish and profound morons.
70% Off Sales, People Touch Clothes And Throw Them On The Floor
Simply disgusting. Add this to the ever-growing list of reasons aliens have for refusing to establish contact with us.
It doesn't even have to be a sale. If you've ever been in a Primark on a busy day you'll know what I mean
Every time I see this in the store I feel sorry for the employees. People can be Inconsiderate. You would think that these are children doing this but no these are adults! it's mind blowing how ignorant they can be.
Load More Replies...This happens everywhere. Feel bad for the poor staff that have to clean up after these savages.
It's no wonder nothing is in order ever again; it's just put on hangars and hung anywhere.
Load More Replies...Kmart and Walmart stores used to be such a mess, like this. Once Kmart stores started to close down, some of the people who do this moved on to Target. Their stores are starting to look like this more and more.
70% off sale. 70% of the clothes off the racks and on the floor. Seems reasonable.
Sometimes they fall off the flimsy hangers. I might pick up two things (that I didn't drop), but after that, I'm done.
People Who Leave Fast Food Places Like This
Makes you wonder what their own kitchens look like....
Load More Replies...Why do people find it so difficult to put the rubbish in the bin, especially since there is usually one by the door as you exit.
My family and I always clean up after ourselves. There is no excuse for this
Laziness, I’m sure if they left with the food it would be thrown in the parking lot, imagine what their house looks like
Their house probably looks fine because that's *their* space. A fast food place has worker monkeys who aren't real people to do the cleaning - it's *their job* (/s for the last bit only)
Load More Replies...Disgusting. No regard for anyone else. People who do this are pigs.
Especially since they usually have to walk by the trash bin to leave.
Dr. Reynolds also points out that our health is far more important than putting someone in their rightful place. Sure, you might rant a bit, but you’re likely to fail to convince someone to change their ways. And the one who suffers is you because now you’re full of anger and hate. Choose to react differently, even if your instincts say otherwise.
By the way, Pandas, if you’re in the mood for some more examples of annoying behavior that’ll make you wonder how any of us manage to get along at all, you ought to check out Bored Panda’s previous articles here, here, here, and here.
People Who Do This With Their Shopping Carts
Are in America shopping carts free? In Slovenia we have to put 1e or 50c or 2e in to get it (we get the money back when we return the shopping cart to its home) or well the stores sometimes have these coins with their logo on which can be used to borrow shopping carts
Most shops in America offer carts free, except one, Aldi.
Load More Replies...Then the homeless and poor people would take care of it
Load More Replies...I recall a grocery chain called Pathmark having you need a quarter to retrieve a cart, something that most places I've seen do away with aside from Aldi. Most people are too lazy to drag their carts to a return point or the storefront, and I feel sorry for the cart reclaimers who have to hunt down the loose cart.
THERE IS A SHOPPING CART THING RIGHT THERE JUST PUT IT IN THE THING
When People Do This With Perishable Goods
Sadly, there are more than one idiot in this world.
Load More Replies...If you change your mind put it back where you found it. If you don't have time give it to someone who works there.
Put this with the chicken in another post and you've almost got a meal... a meal no one should eat.
This Guy At The Coffee Shop Took His Shoes Off And Put His Feet On The Coffee Table
Yes this thing is not allowed! I remember one time a friend had his leg on a cast and we asked permission from the staff so he can have his leg elevated on a chair! Of course they said yes but normally this is not allowed
Load More Replies...He should be out the door and barred until he learns that he cannot behave in public as he does at home.
Maybe the coffee shop has a motto "feels like home but with better coffee"
Honestly, I could live with that. Its a s**t-ton better than shoes on the table.
Hmmmm at least he took off his shoes?? I might not do it, but it's not THAT gross is it?
Why yes. Yes it is that gross. People put their drinks and food there.
Load More Replies...Maybe it is in the movies only, but in American movies people always put their legs (with shoes!) ok n the table. Even on the bed. Disgusting.
Totally just a movie thing. We also don't wear shoes around the house, unless slipper count, we don't get our paper in our robes, hang up without saying bye, or cook large breakfasts and not eat them. Media does it to save time between takes.
Load More Replies...Go over and either move his feet off the table or stand over him and loudly ask if any one else can smell dirty feet!
People Hoping To Skip Queues By Standing Like This And Trying To Slip In
Englishman (It sounds so much better than Englishwoman) here and I throughly concur!
Load More Replies...Not worth trying in the UK. Someone does this and social distancing goes out of the window and we close up ranks to the point where we need consent and a condom
Same with cars. Bro, if you wanted to go left, then actually drive in the left lane and wait like the others do instead of driving in the deserted straight lane and then expecting everybody to let you in. This is not a "zipper line". And no, you are not better than us because you drive a BMW or Audi.
Loathsome creatures. I become irrationally angry and regress to junior high school age, I.e. "No cutsies!"
It’s so inconsiderate but I guess that’s the thing nowadays right. I never used to have trouble getting out of an elevator before people rushed in getting out of a bus before people rushed in now you take your life in your hands trying to get out of either, I’ve literally had to shove people out of the way.
There Are Trash Cans Literally At Every Corner In Malls. Why Make Other People Clean Up Your Mess
Happens all the time at my work at a popular clothing store. EVEN FOOD SMEARED ON THE GROUND!
Why do people need to take food and drink into shops in the first place?
In this case, if it's a Target the Starbucks is in the store. Person is still nasty for leaving it though. Your cart has a cup holder for this reason
Load More Replies...It's of no use of them anymore so it's no longer their responsibility. Bad parenting.
Once I put my hand down to pick up a shirt on the floor and to my luck there be a uncapped milky strawberry drink. It spilled on my shirt and IT WAS WHITE UGHHHHG
I can't stand walking into a store with food. Idk how people do this.
A**holes Who Leave Store Shelves Like This
Dead right. These people are too dumb to realise that someone has to use company time to put everything back
Load More Replies...This is why no one wants to work in retail or restaurants. It's not unemployment benefits, it's horrible customers. I'd rather shovel horse manure than wait tables again these days. I am not on any unemployment or assistance.
EXACTLY!!!! It gets to the point where you just say, I am not going to be treated this way anymore and you quit the job.
Load More Replies...that's every target shoe section in every store. i used to work shoes there and people NEVER put them back.
This
It’s a speaker. Not your fault. The stupidity defies common sense.
Load More Replies...And they never play decent music. It's always this mumble rap "hammana hammana huh" bullshit.
And- any song that sounds like an orgasm the first 15 seconds
Load More Replies...Whoever invited these (and with straps on top of everything???) should be tried and sentenced for a major environmental crime. It is pollution.
Yea no one gives a crap about your music! Throw up also parked cars blaring their crap! I turn mine down if I'm at a red light!
People Who Can’t Pick Up After Themselves
They have a sign for this “If you’re not able to return the weights to their place please let the girls at reception know and they will put them away for you”. Sexist, but does the trick.
A gym we used to use had a sign that said, "If you're strong enough to pick them up, you're strong enough to put them away."
Load More Replies...Me, a twelve year old gymnast that carries these things up a bunch of stairs to put them away after my team is done with them. If I can do it, you can too.
Worse, they take these weights into another room, and just... leave them there. Finding missing weights that you need becomes a damn Easter egg hunt.
I may know where that was. One of the Hampton Inns? I saw a person at the hotel I stayed in last month, doing the same thing.
This Guy On My 9 Hr Flight Just Plugged These Bad Boys In Once They Turned Off The Lights At 11:30 Pm
I have some that light up. They're in the shape of cat ears and the ears light up different colors and pulse with the music. My mom bought them for me at the suggestion of my child, which may have been unwise but I actually kinda love them. I would turn off the lights on a plane though, or if people were trying to sleep.
Load More Replies...But why though? Are you a beacon in space? Do you need the neighbourhood to know you're playing games...why?
No you need the neighbourhood to know you are an asshole apparently and that's the quickest way to let everyone know
Load More Replies...That is pure showboating and douchebag behaviour. Surely the flight crew could say something??
I have to laugh….really what’s the point??? Are you afraid people are not going to find you in the dark? Is this in case aliens happen to come down and need to know who to abduct first? The manufacturer who came up with this needs to be called in
My Friend's Desktop Deserves To Be In Here
Looks like it will take care of that on it's own very soon
Load More Replies...How do they even use that device? Like...I'm getting angry just looking at it.
i'm wondering if it's a desktop background meant to look like a mess? i don't think it would be functional otherwise
Load More Replies...Like Roy said in "IT Crowd" : "If this was a human I'd shot it in the head!"
How can there be several layers ? It is not even supposed to be possible, is it ?
i'm wondering if all layers except the first are the desktop background, made to look like a mess

Load More Replies...Some Jerk In My Office: “Damn, That Was Close. If I Took That Last Ice Cube I Might Have To Refill The Tray”
In my office nobody takes the last piece of anything in fear of having to wash something, reload something or throw away something...
What the heck. So people are afraid to actually have to do work to clean up after themselves?? There are some parents we need to talk to
Load More Replies...Is there some law that you cannot refill it with ice still in it?
So, what do you do when there's something important to be done - leave for someone else?
Unless they did it the previous day, the new water wouldn't have frozen anyway, you'd have got slush
In my office, the girls have to share 1 bathroom and no one would want to load the toilet paper except me. Empty roll or just one sheet hanging. I was the official toilet paper changer for a whole year+. I decided to hide my own roll in the counter and let the other 6 women be rude to each other. After a few months, I decided to change the rolls again because I don't want to be petty. (Pauline)
That's is to much for them to put water in it OR have they never did one before lol
People Who Do This
My cousin was visiting once and his way of dealing with these types is my favorite. He will get within a few steps of them and suddenly scream,”LOOK OUT!” They scatter like roaches! It’s hilarious. Then he just casually walks by laughing.
Does he wear a cape? Not all heroes wear capes. Some do tho.
Load More Replies...I hate this soooo much. My balance isn't the best so I have to hold onto those rails. These selfish people make my everyday life so much more difficult.
I understand! I've had 2 foot surgeries. I don't do steps well. Even with a brace and a cane people won't move. I purposely wear a brace in the pool because the large women sit on the steps in the shallow end blocking the rail with their towels. I don't trust my ankle on the pool ladders.
Load More Replies...I deliberately take their side of the stairs and make them stand up (asking politely and with a smile of course!! )
I like the scream "LOOK OUT!!" but I can't scream very loud.
Load More Replies...This. Especially when you're in a hurry and trying to catch the train pulling into the station.
and then.they give you the dirty look for disturbing them.
Load More Replies...Got your bike? Ok now let's see who can do better stair bike bowling
I just want to do like this cute chubby kid, rolling like a bowling ball in the stairs in the movie Hook.
This Guy At My Work Never Drinks The Whole Coca Cola
Yeah, I don’t care if he doesn’t finish them. It’s his money, but why is he collecting the half fininshed bottles?
Load More Replies...I do this, too. If you dont drink the whole bottle pretty fast by the time you get to the last bit it doesn't taste the same.
If they didn't throw these away, then ugh. But, I have no shame in the fact I do this. Have you tasted that last bit of pop before? Warm, no carbonation left. And yes, I am from Minnesota, we call it pop, but that is for a different article lol
I never ever finish drinks. Bottles cups glasses. Everybody around me knows it. But I am good with throwing out (recycling)
That last bit is warm and gross. What kind of monster just leaves the bottles hanging around though?
I heard a myth once from a know it all. He said the last 10% of any drink is backwash and spit. I told him he obviously doesn't know how to drink properly and he's paying 10% more for all his drinks.
Pawn Shops Who Put Price Stickers Right On The Lens Of A Camera. No Way That’s Coming Off Clean
The problem with a camera lens is that they often have a special coating on them and they scratch extremely easily, so the wd-40 would f**k a lens up beyond use

In Canada, most shelf items are labelled in English and French. Guess which side gets the sticky label? Depends on where you are in the country.
Or over the titles on books in bookstores. If you are buying a book for a present, you have to try to get the price tag off. Nine times out of ten, half the label is adhered forever.
depending on whether or not that's an older model, thats pretty cheap for a vivitar

3 People, 12 Seats
I would reserve judgment on this. There may not have been anyone else there when they lay down to nap. Happened to me once, in a hangar in Kuwait. Only two of us in the terminal, we lay down to nap, woke up to find an entire Company of 101st Airborne (100+) sleeping all around us, even on the floor.
This. Having slept in many an airport, I don't begrudge them.
Load More Replies...This happened once to me. There was no people at the terminal so i stretched out to take a nap. When i woke up, hundreds of people were sitting at the terminal. So embarrassing…..
LOL Airports are pretty common to have people sleeping in the public areas. Especially by those flying anything cheaper than business class.
Load More Replies...This looks like an airport, have none of you ever been stuck in an airport? These guys are trying to get some rest.
Thats ok at 2am when it is empty not when its full of people who also need to sit
Load More Replies...Really. This is the pinnacle of... selfishness? Making some people who may need to sit, like pregnant,disabled, or elderly people, stand, just so you can stretch out on your phone. I could easily lay on the floor wrapped in a blanket.
When we lived in SE Asia the hardest thing we had to get used to was how bad people have such little concern for others. The worst was pushing. Everyone PUSHES!!! So rude.
i lived in Singapore for 13 years and i can attest to this...though there was no pushing, there was a lot of bare feet on public transport, clipping toenails on benches around other people, clipping toenails on the bus, blowing noses onto the ground etc. and the office bathroom was a nightmare....
Load More Replies...Airlines expect you to sit up and not sleep while you wait for a flight that been delayed 12 hours. They need cots in the airport, even if you have to rent 'em.
How This Fancy "Heirloom" Pre-WWII Dishware Was Shipped To Us By Our Friend
Your friend either hates you or is an utter moron - either way you need to lose them….
Dumping good hearted people who are stupid is mean.
Load More Replies...I'm so sorry. I inherited the coolest 1960s bar glasses from my husband's aunt. Harlequins with rhinestones! They were in Florida, we were thousands of miles away. Her niece wrapped one or two of a full set of the glasses in a piece of paper each with no padding or bubble wrap at all and mailed them without insurance. Out of thirty six glasses three survived. Quite a slap in the face.
Unfortunately, people don't realize how mush abuse packages receive. Good rule to follow 1" (2.5cm) packing around non fragile items, 2" (5cm) around fragile items and 3"-5" (7.5cm -12.5cm) around delicate items. Best "box" is a sealed plastic igloo, unless it opens or the item is left rattling inside nothing is breaking the igloo. If you able place an igloo inside of a box just for extra protection to keep it from opening.
Load More Replies...My mother did this to me when my Grandmother passed. Every single item smashed beyond repair. I couldn't really say anything about it, her Mom just died :/
Your friend seems a bit of a buffoon. Do they happen to have the brain of a 4 year old?

A Friend Saw This In The Subway During The Climate Strike
I watched a documentary about the river Ganges in India. It is one of the most polluted rivers in the world. People dump dead bodies, ashes, trash and sewage in it and still drink it because of it's 'healing powers'. An Indian scientist actually believed that the river could clean itself and the more it is polluted, the cleaner it gets. The climax was when I saw a woman drink the water 😭😭. I wanted to die
Actually, the earth DOES clean itself... Problem is just that we mess it up faster than it can clean up after us.
Actually, through various natural processes, the Earth does "clean" itself. No one came along to clean up the mess left from the asteroid impact that took out the dinosaurs.

Solution. Parenting style called Love & Logic. Natural consequence of their decisions. My nephew was in the gifted class. Same subjects as the other kids but way more in depth than the other classes. The expected quality of work & test results was tougher than the others. If you started to slip because you weren't putting in the work required of you, you are no longer in this class. On about 11 yo he decided he didn't want to do the work anymore. Just goof off. His parents said, " Ok. Thats your choice. But the consequence of this choice is also yours". End of the 2 weeks he tried this plan, his test marks were way below passing. Totally embarrassing. Big chance he's out. He learned the consequences of his choice. They asked him what he thought he needed to do about it. He decided to do his work. If this kid won't close the cap & they need to spend more money on toothpaste tell him that uses up money they could spend on the movies. You want to go to the movies, close the cap!
Load More Replies...This is how men grow up to be slobs who expect everyone else to clean up after them. If he can't use the toothpaste correctly, his parents should make him brush his teeth with baking soda. He'll learn quick enough.
Heck! I just hope he closes the lid when he flushes! Doubtful though.
Load More Replies...Holy... that 10 year old surely acts like a 3 year old when it comes to toothpaste. One also does not have that many toothpastes left that are full, nor keep empty toothpaste
My Coworker Returned The Front Desk Stapler Like This. Told Me It Ran Out Of Staples
This is why I had two of everything. One for me out of reach and one for everyone else to use. Only certain people knew I had better office supplies available. Same with hand lotion.
Or the dumb ass didn't know how to fix his mess this is something a child would do bet it was returned when no one was there.
The Way My Coworker Used My Tape
Fold a little bit of the end over after you tear off what you need. Problem solved.
Load More Replies...That tape is used in cell phone repair. Multiple repairs all of the same length. That is a very common way to cut it. I'm calling bullshit on the victimhood going on here. Fake outrage
People That Don't Clear The Timer On The Microwave
My wife is one of these demented freaks. Whenever I catch her I scream, “Another bomb defused at the (3 or whatever) second mark! We live to fight another day!” She. Absolutely. HATES it. Lol
But apparently, she hates the annoying microwave beep even more
Load More Replies...Why, you're one of the lazy asses that think "someone else will do it"??
Load More Replies...oh yes... and how about when they leave their stuff in the microwave and it continuously makes that reminder beep.... maddening
Cool, but just hit "cancel" to clear it so it's ready to use by the next person...
Load More Replies...My dad does this, there's usually like 15-12 seconds left and doesn't bother clearing it up.
Just press the stop/clear button instead of the pause button for PETE'S SAKE!!!
This Teacher Doesn’t Erase The Board Fully And Continues To Use It
Me too! I also can't stand when people don't erase on paper well enough then write over it
Load More Replies...I hate when there's one little speck on a perfectly clean board and I have to restrain myself from barrelling up there and rubbing it off myself.
Teachers here don't even have chalk boards anymore. It's all dry erase boards.
But when they get old they dont rub off as well, or when they arent cleaned regularly and then i get into the sort of mood when i just want to tear it off the wall and throw it at them. Its even worse when it will wipe off and you know it will because the rest did and they DONT WIPE IT OFF. Sorry🙃 felt good to rant tho😂
Load More Replies...UGHHHH. I would've spent the next few min or so trying to figure out why . Then asked.
Coworkers Who Do This To My Dry Erase Markers
This makes me stabby and is the reason I lock up all my markers. ALL OF THEM. HUNDREDS OF THEM. DON'T TOUCH MY MARKERS.
Lock 'em up. either the markers or the people who do this - your choice!
This is why nobody is allowed near my pens. A classmate borrowed my relatively new Sharpie and managed to destroy the tip in about 10 minutes.
I know!! I understand this! There is nothing better than a brand spanking new sharpie the first time you use it. It makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. And there is nothing worse, when somebody uses your relatively new sharpie, and you go to write with it, and it starts "skipping ink" before you can finish the first letter. And you hold it up, and that tip is smashed and sideways. I swear to god, I have went and retrieved my sharpie from someone who didn't think I'd mind if they used it( I know, I am such a damn a**l bitch ha ha), and my marker tip looked like they found a concrete slab and decided to write a novel on it....little strings and fuzzies trailing off the tip; I really, really, wanted to just throw it at them so I could hear the" Shlawp" sound when it smacks them in the forehead.....but I didn't.
Load More Replies...I am very particular about my marker tips, do I order markers by the box and give everyone in the lab a couple, then tell them not to use the ones with tape on them (marked as mine).
One way to destroy dry erase markers is to use them on flip chart paper. They're not intended for writing on that kind of surface - it's too abrasive and will tear up the tips
I think people have been pushing too hard while writing?
Load More Replies...People That Walk Down The Middle Of The Drive Aisle
Yeah, it's annoying but it's not a massive inconvenience, you shouldn't be going faster than walking speed in a car park anyway.
Getting along with each other means being aware of, and sensitive to, the needs of others. Pedestrians can (and, I think, should) be aware of vehicle traffic and keep to one or the other side of the aisle. Not a difficult thing to do, it just requires some awareness of others needs.
Load More Replies...I see some comments saying, it's not a place for pedestrians. But it is: everyone who parks & gets out of their car, everyone who walks back to their car from the shops, is a pedestrian. People get in the way of cars at parking lots because there's usually no safe place to walk, you're either skimming behind parked cars that may well have drivers ready to leave, or you're in the roadway.
You are absolutely correct - pedestrians almost always have the right of way in privately owned parking lots! In the U.S., store/shopping mall parking lots are private property. And if there is an accident of any kind, the police won't come to the scene, unless there is injury or death. I was a fleet administrator for 11 years & we had several parking lot accidents where the police refused to come to the scene, depending on city or state laws. At best we were advised to come to the police station to file a report if it was necessary for insurance reporting.
Load More Replies...If parking lot designers had a single brain cell, they'd have sidewalks between rows, protected by bumpers, and with the cart corral accessible from the sidewalk. Part of the issue is that walking along the back bumpers of cars increases your risk of being hit by the moron backing out without looking.
This is usually the fault of the car park not providing a safe walking area. If they still do it when there are paths available, then it gets annoying
I actually don’t mind this because it’s too easy to back into a pedestrian who is walking too close to the back of parked cars while you’re trying to back out in a busy parking lot
Neil Bidle. You are that bad of a driver are you? Funny. 30 years of driving and parking in supermarkets, and I have never hit anyone. And I have no issues loading my shopping.
Load More Replies...I notice that the man who uses a cane is walking along the side, while the able-bodied gal across from him can't be bothered. . .

My Friend's Attempt To Sell Something On Facebook Marketplace
I have that all the time. People seem to ask the most absurd questions in this places or simply not read the description. Like "How much is the chair?" "Says the price clearly stated in the advertisement". "Can you sent it to X?" "The advertisement says pick up only". I really dont get people. One person wanted me to drive for 3h to deliver him a hasmter cage that i "sold" for free. After he insisted i told him that i would do it for a 1000 euros delivery fee
Classic. The people that ask questions on buying websites inevitably never bid.
Load More Replies...I feel like the "Don't need it" was meant to be a question and the person asking it just forgot to add the correct punctuation. Which is hard to decipher in a text versus call or in person.
I hate it when people ask if it's available, you say yes. Never hear from them again. Fuckwits.
This is right up there with the reply e-mail I always have to send which states, "As I clearly mentioned in my previous email". That's office speak for "Bitch, can you read?"
The one that absolutely frustrates me to the point of being pisssed off, if when they put "$XX, OBO" in their ad, and then absolutely refuse to lower the price even one cent. I mean, if you want to sell something for a firm price, there's nothing wrong with that. But you need to state that. WHY would you put OR BEST OFFER in your freaking ad, if you're not gonna take offers?? I hate that!!!
Giving A Presentation To 100 People On Their Laptop
Hahahaha! The co presenter who is reduced to the role of laptop stand.
Maybe they were promised a beamer and screen in the contract, and then it just wasn't there. I once did a workshop where it said clearly that I only had to bring a USB, they would provide all the equipment. I didn't quite trust them so I brought my own. Good thing, because there was nothing - and those responsible were AWOL. It wasn't ideal since my sound equipment wasn't quite sufficient, but I made it work.
Been there done that. Promised projector not available. Have even had to lug an old projector weighing about 20kg on a plane (as hand luggage) before today! If I were still in that game now, I'd have invested in a micro projector "just in case". Always used to have cables and adapters that fitted my laptop.
Always show up early or the day before a presentation to make sure you know how the projector works.
I've been in that room. I won't say the exact please, but it's an opera house in Michigan.
People Who Abandon Their Unwanted Groceries In The Freezer, Causing Them To Explode And Become Unsellable
Or who abandon their unwanted frozen/refrigerated items on the regular shelves, rendering them also unsellable. It's a form of stealing as far as I'm concerned.
The amount of wastage in the food chain is astronomical. Honestly, this is nothing.

Jacks up the price for the rest of us. Say something when you see someone doing this!
I know people do this a lot but when I do it I’m at least mindful of what’s perishable or not. Now though I just hand it back to the cashiers, and tell them I don’t it.
Didn't know this could happen. But maybe that's because people here never dk that.
Sidewalk Repair In Our Historic Neighborhood. Thanks City Workers
I'm actually having the opposite reaction the longer I look. There's a craziness to it that I like. That part of the path is now it's own little world.
Load More Replies...Dude, it's a sidewalk. In my city, there's a waitlist for potholes, stop signs, and stop lights. I'd just be thankful the city did SOMETHING. I definitely wouldn't expect them to even attempt to replicate the pattern. If you're upset, buy some cement and fit it yourself. I assume there are poorer, not "historic," neighborhoods that the city could be better off serving anyway.
That is worse than terrible. The person who did this should be sacked.
First of it, you should know if they had the budget for this, or not... Most of the time they dont have it.
Load More Replies...People Who Block Window Seats On Public Transit
I admit, i sit like this BUT i hold my backpack in my lap and try to look like I'm willing to move if anyone wants the window seat (anxiety, if i get trapped in then i miss my stop and get a panic attack) Have moved no problem for many people before (as odd as that sounds) and most of them prefer the window
I do the same thing, I hate feeling trapped so of someone asks if they can sit there I stand up and let them take the window seat. No one has complained.
Load More Replies...In Covid times, this is... kind of understandable. I admit I used to do this too, because people just WOULD NOT even TRY to stay back. People at the absolute height of the pandemic would insist to sit next to me with their sniffles and their masks pulled under their noses, and then had the audacity to think I'M the asshole there...
I was on bus, mom daughter and I think about 10 yr old boy get on with the grandma. The boy sits like this and refused to move for grandma. Told her go sit somewhere else. I think whole bus was holding breath waiting for the beat down! No nothing grandma got other seat and mom did nothing! Maybe why society sucks?
I used to do this because I have mobility issues, and it was very difficult to struggle out of the inner seats & then to the door in the time most drivers would allow. If I got up early, too, I then had to try and remain upright while the bus was moving, which wasn't a given.
Just ask is the seat free and start moving in. Seriously, what's the matter with you, people? Can't you speak?
There's nothing wrong with this. Maybe their stops are coming up. If you want to sit by the window, just ask. In my experience, usually even just a smile and a head nod to the empty seat is all it takes for someone to let you pass.
I have been trapped in by a man who did not keep a decent distance to me. Never again! I will sit like that and whoever wants the window seat can ask for it.
This is my exact concern with this picture. My first thought was that they both appear to be women and this more of a safety-conscious issue.
Load More Replies...It's partly up to other passengers to ask 'excuse me' and go to sit down. Some people want to stand because they are getting off pretty soon and it's not worth the bother of sitting (I know this from offering to move so people can sit), so how are those sitting supposed to know? If no one wants to sit why shouldn't they sit on the side most comfy for themselves?
I Hate People
This happens at the disabled crosshatch area (Meant to provide needed room for wheelchairs) every single time I try to park. There are times I’ve actually had to call the store and get somebody to come and move all the carts just so that I could park my vehicle. We’re surrounded by thoughtful people…not
You have to admit though, a lot of those are left by people who park in the disabled spots in the first place. Because, for whatever reason, the nearest cart return to the disabled parking is usually half way across the parking lot.

The Way This Professor Erases The Board
But the horns would ruin this board and they are quite heavy and probably reluctant to be rubbed on a board, and it would ruin their fur. A domestic mouse sounds more handy than a chamois.

Our New Milkman Doesn’t Put The Milk Bottles In The Container After Taking The Empty Ones Out. Absolutely Barbaric Behaviour
I used to work as a milkman and we preferred it if you didn't put the empty bottles in these things. Milkmen like to be fast and would put the milk in these carriers if they were clear and the empties next to it in 2 tidy rows
The milkman holds the bottles and puts them down with one hand (my dad used to carry 4-5 in on hand on his round). They will probably pick up the empties with the same hand by sticking his fingers in them to pick them out, all done in one bend downa. To put them in the holder means they need to stop and arrange the bottles after they've emptied the holder. If they had to do that at every house their round would take considerably longer.

Coffee Shops That Add This Much Ice To Your Drink
This is almost like a scam so they can give you less product, I always ask beforehand, lil ice plz
Personally I'm a ice eater so usually I don't mind and don't wanna bother the workers, but the amount of ice in that drink is way to much :/
I don't understand this thing of putting so much ice in drinks. The drinks are kept and served at an ice cold temperature anyway, so why do you need ice? I always ask for "no ice, please" and the drink is always cold enough until I've drunk it all. Try it.

Why Would Someone Do This?
I don’t know about this one first of all they’ve given you the sauce and if you don’t want as much as they’ve given you you can put on as much as you want from what they’ve given you. And the bun doesn’t get all soggy. So there. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it
but they could put that 'extra' sauce in a little lidded container
Load More Replies...Thinking about it, I'm going to guess that the burger was packed & ready to go, and then someone noticed the 'extra sauce' on the order. Rather than unpack the burger, they put it in another container. Given the constraints on fast-food service - it's all essentially line work - I'm not surprised this happens.
Ya mean you wanted extra Mac sauce on the burger? You gotta be specific when dealing with Forrest Gump.
As A Delivery Driver, This Is So Frustrating
You mean the obscured house number, not where the package or door is.
We put up another address sign on our lightpost when we realized our plants were covering the address on the house. Not gonna give up my plants. But I don't want to be rude, either.
My Dad actually built a custom made fixture for my Grandma's lightpost, so that it lit up with her address number. She loved it, and nobody ever had trouble finding her house after that.

This Is Donut Anarchy: My Friend's Co-Worker Cut A Piece Out Of Every Donut In The Box
I guess the only good thing is he cut them and didn't bite into them, so you can still share.
He cut all but one. *Clears throat* I guess he wasn't ready to for that jelly.
Load More Replies...I think people don't want to be seen as "greedy" by taking a whole donut, so they cut off a small, virtuous piece. At my old job if someone brought in a box of donuts, by the end of the day there would be nothing but dried-out bite-sized pieces left. Can't take that last piece, someone else might want it doncha know.
I kinda like the approach. Would have been guilty of this if I had thought of it.
That My Friend Won’t Let Me Take This Off Because, “I Need That On There”

People Who Don't Peel New Things
We had our dishwasher for 2 years before we realized there was plastic film on it -- it was always a dark blue-grey, now it's a bright stainless steel color that matches the rest of the appliances. There was no obvious seam on it, we only discovered it after trying to scrub off some dried sauce and the plastic started coming off -- I though I somehow damaged the stainless steel until I realized it was plastic.
When I moved into my grandma's house I was fed up with how much limescale there was on the plastic shower wall. I start rubbing it and I notice that I can peel it of. My grandma cleaned well, but was small and never, in over twenty (20!!) years could reach the top to find out it was on there (bottom had to be cut actually as it was inside the frame).
Load More Replies...I do that sometimes. Because peeling is freaking annoying and then I forget. (And yes, seeing videos of people saying like "haaaaannn it is sooooo satisfyyyyiiiing" makes me rise eyebrows)
Do what I do. Grip the edge of the film. Stare them in the eye. Pull it off! Extra kudos if you do it in one move

My Buddy Decided This Would Be The Best Way To Open His Ziplock Bag Of Bullets
And he has access to bullets like these, but can't use a zip lock bag 🤦♀️
If only there were some type of container or bag designed to be both inexpensive and easy to open...
He doesn't know the only appropriate way to open it is perforating it with a short burst of bullets?
I need context here. Why in a ziplock bag? (I’m all for protection, but ammo inside a ziploc Bag?)
Because gun people are very strict with safety protocols.

I think it's OK, if it's hers... It's meant she doesn't want to share, she she wants to eat it by herself.

The Way This Container Was Opened By One Of My Coworkers
Honestly, I prefer to do this than those lid tops. Easier to get everything out without splashing outside the container.
There's a reclosable cap (blue thingy on the top left). Now to be fair, if I know i'm going to use the whole content of these kind of container, I usually also do it like that. Much easier to empty it properly.

Apparently My Coworkers Think It’s Necessary To Have 6 Rolls Of Toilet Paper In Use At Once
Don't the janitors do that when they change the roll? If there's not much left they change it and leave the small roll behind in the hope that someone uses it. But in this case, it looks like people prefer to use the regular roll.
Yeah, the janitors come in like once a day to change the rolls and prefer to put a full new one on even if there are remnants behind. I figured that out and college and would always take the remnants. Didn’t pay for toilet paper for an entire year.

How Much Coffee Per Pot My Coworkers Think Is Needed
I have to defend this person, I worked in an office where they told me everyone had to take turns making coffee. I have never drank a cup much less made one so I filled the filter to the top with coffee, I had no idea. Needless to say I did not ever have to make coffee again! :)
I got banned from making coffee at my old office because I made it "too strong." The best part is my mother was also banned from making coffee at her old office for the same reason.
Well at least they aren't trying to pass off coffee so weak it's basically colored water...

Because BP posts whatever gets the most hits. They are not at all interested in right and wrong, or what social behaviors are seen as being right or wrong. They are only interested in ad revenue, so they will post as much contradictory and inflammatory material as they can in order to generate and inflate these artificial controversies.

"...had to shame them online." No. You don't have to shame anyone. You could let it go. The only reason you might feel the need to shame these people is because modern society has normalized disregard for authority, and thereby encourages disregard for the law as well as social mores, or else you simply want to feel good about yourself by pointing out flaws in others. Either way, you are whining rather than doing what is necessary to stop behaviours like this.
