You know how in school, there was always that one kid who just couldn’t stay silent no matter what everyone was talking about? They would raise their hand in the air and start elaborating on whatever it was that nobody, not a single one, had asked in that classroom.
Fast forward to today, and we see the same thing happening all around on the internet. And this particular subreddit titled “Nobody Asked” has collected some of the most entertaining examples of people explaining far too much even though they were never asked to do so.
Below we selected some peculiar examples, so scroll down, upvote your favorite posts and let us know what you think of it in the comment section!

I Figured It Belonged Here
You probably know a person who wouldn’t miss a chance to throw their opinion here and there, or give advice without being asked. And even though everyone seems to be less than impressed with their gesture, it seems like nothing can stop them. Are they just being nice? Do they feel an urge to show off? What’s up with that?
Psychologists believe that unsolicited advice-givers tend to be rigid in the way they approach life in general. They typically believe that they are right, and when they approach a problem, they often have difficulty seeing the situation from multiple perspectives. This is why you should always take such advice with a pinch of salt.

Sometimes, their perspective lacks humility and insight, even though they often seem very competent to people around them. Same with sharing their opinion on matters when no one really asks them. They wouldn’t do that if they genuinely did not believe they were right.
On the other hand, we just all have to accept that some people really like talking. You see, it’s much more fun to talk than to listen and not every talker can be a great listener. Moreover, we have to realize that one of the most powerful communication skills you'll learn is good listening at an early point in your life. After all, communication is meant to promote understanding between people and you can never get to that point if you’re not listening to others.
What Am I Supposed To Do? Never Talk About My Family On The Internet?
My mom passed away when I was 11 and my dad was never around but it makes me so happy and excited for people who have parent(s) and appreciate them! Don't take them for granted, folks.
My mum was a hardcore narc and alcoholic. I love to read posts like that because it makes me happy that person has a wonderful parent. Yeah it might make me think a little but I wouldn't bring down that person for it. It comes across as desperately needy frankly.
Load More Replies...Well now you’ve infected someone else’s holiday celebrations with your parental trauma, congrats? This is why therapy exists.
My grandmother was notorious for leaving out ONE ingredient when giving recipes for her delicious cooking. If you wanted to know, you had to get up at dawn (the South with no AC) when she cooked and watch her like a hawk.
It's becoming a trend. In my town there was this woman who made the local news because she was offended by all the Mother's day ads in shops because she wasn't a mother and her mother died when she was born. To her that was a totally valid reason to ban Mother's day in my town despite all the people who had or were mothers. This year she didn't succeed...
This person is carrying around a lot of buggage. More like traumatised than TMI.
The word 'mother' is a trigger regardless of how it's used in a sentence, even as a brand name! This made me sad.
Load More Replies...Why is this response more than 2 sentences, my mother had crippling arthritis and could never write more than 2 sentences. This comment is offensive to those of us who never received more than a greeting card with, "Love, Mom" written at the bottom.
I have 30 years clean and sober. My mom was a flaming codependent, my dad, step-dad and second step-dad were alcoholics, some were quite abusive. That being said, I will happily eat your not quite as good as mom cookies and tell the world that being a shitheel and blaming it on your upbringing is lazy and counterproductive. Start going to Al--Anon and quit playing the victim.
Attention all people: just because you had trauma in your past does not mean the rest of the world has to cater to it.
I read somerhing this year about people who wanted mothersday gone because it was insulting for people without mothers..
Random strangers are not responsible for triggering your trauma. Get a therapist.
So many overly sensitive Karen's on the loose everywhere nowadays. You can't even mention you have a mom or they'll be offended.
We should have a name for a so-called Karen that is gender neutral. Or switch back and forth. Like the names of hurricanes — I think that’s the thing now, right? Male and female. 🤨
Load More Replies...I am not an insensitive jerk, but shaming everyone for being luckier than you is pretty cringy.
Try and be sensitive to people who had a brilliant childhood and wonderful parents, and just say things.
Brownie is a self-pitying twat who should find a sob story site instead of polluting the "gushy" sites.
On the flip side, about two weeks after my mom died, a friend-co-worker came by for a quick chat and in the middle said something like, "You know how when you just need to talk to your Mom more than anyone in the world?" and then just kept talking. She didn't think anything of it. Another coworker, the two days after the funeral gathered us up for a team meeting. One of us three had his mother die 6 months earlier. The third member's Mom was in a nursing home, not having spoken in 5 years. And the project manager starts with, "Well, if no else's Mom dies for a while, then we can get back on track." (I had taken a whole 4 days off.)
Oh, this totally happened to me, once. I mentioned moms in a group chat, and somebody completely went off on me because they'd lost theirs when they were younger. They apologized later once they'd cooled down.
Jeez. That went dark very quick. Do you know how to unfriend people. I'm sorry he or she had such a bad childhood but that's down to his PARENTS he or she can't expect everyone to be miserable just because he or she is. Then again some people are only happy making other people's lives a misery!!!! Btw I am also useless making cookies. Mine NEVER ever turn out like my Nans so I just stopped trying. Pleanty of biscuits in the shops lol
What the holy eff? I'm bitter so the world needs to be too? Going by that logic no one should be happy at any given time.
@-@ Im sorry but like...No one even asked I- How did you even think it was appropriate to bring that up?
Somebody lost the ability to scroll. Or the weather was nice and there was nothing to complain about.

Me too! I thought of that while having a dump!
Load More Replies...I do not understand this obsession with sharing about absolutely everything online. Bathroom habits? sexual habits? fantasies? periods? pimples? rows with family and friends? relationship stuff? nothing is off limits and I don't understand it at all.
Load More Replies...I'm actually starting to wonder how many of these are bots, trolls, attention seekers, or people who just aren't familiar with how social media works....
By far my favorite was the weird old toy doll post and someone replying about having a small white dog. Wtf is going on? Made me laugh/cry and I don't know why. I'm ashamed of how tickled it made me
Let's be honest, a good chunk of people share way too much online. A lot of media stories are things we don't need to know about celebs.
It's almost Hallowe'en (I assure you, that's the correct spelling; look it up) and none of these are Hallowe'en themed. I was almost an editor, but I got a better job. Now, I drive a BMW.
My birthday is Jan 26. Was having a nice birthday until some clown dmed me on twitter a few minutes before midnight. The awesome message they sent me was a screenshot of one of many articles talking about Kobe Bryant's death, as if it was my fault that he died. Just had to end my birthday on a sour note, I guess.
i dont get how #37 (the soup post) looks yummy, imo it looks like vomit
To be fair, I think some of these are just straight-up trolling, though it's hard to tell from texts alone.
"Pardon me ? -I already have a boyfriend! -Yeah, whatever, here is your phone that you forgot at the library."
