Remember the time you met an old high-school friend at the supermarket? How about that evening when a co-worker sat next to you on the bus practicing his social skills?
BuzzFeed's Lara Parker has compiled a unique collection of honest graphs about these situations and the social norms in responding to them. Sometimes we just have to participate in a conversation even though all our instincts are screaming otherwise and the thought 'i hate people' is on repeat in our heads. Of course, running away (or in extreme circumstances even punching a person in his face) and joining the Anti-Social Club often seems compelling but the etiquette demands to nod, smile and engage in the small talk. And that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Perhaps if more people saw these graphs, they would start less painfully disturbing chit-chat in the first place. But if you want to, then firmly hold on to your people suck beliefs, because nobody really cares.

Then they will text you back, and i will have to text back AGAIN, and so on D:
I can relate to this very much. I'm never busy because I have no life but I legit hate people so I just say I'm busy.
I usually act as if i were busy with my cell so i don't have to be bothered to do any of that :b
If I see someone I know, I'll take the stairs to avoid them, or take the elevator if I see them walking towards the stairs.
I hate elevators. I just stare at the door and look at the thing that shows you the number of the floor until it gets to mine.
No, non of these. The fact that I'm not a people's person doesn't mean I'm an internet troll.
I can relate to most of those charts, not because I hate people but because I'm introverted, there's a big difference
I can relate to them too. Although it's not because I'm an introvert. It's because I hate people. And because people suck.

It's not like that I hate people... Only I love to live alone and don't want anyone to bug me.
Wow some of these are sad actually. Im an introvert and dont really like people (at all) but if your hobby is hating people and all you do online is judge others... You just sound lonely and pathetic.
You harp on people that judge others, while you judge others. Alice! The irony!

it's easy to hate people when you are around them for a few since most people are hateable in that most have hideous traits in some form or another whether it be low intelligence, character, tastes, interests etc. this is very easy to understand if you consider the average/majority. of course, those who are of this average don't have people rub them the wrong way as much. birds of a feather flock together and the majority are of the same feathers which honestly are idiots or have subpar to horrible unethical character.
Yes!! You nailed it. I think you and I could have been friends. If I didn't hate people.

Perhaps "hating people" is a bit extreme: but hating STUPID people is explicit and quite appropriate. And remember: stupid people vote.
Introvert is a normal personality trait...but is always looked down apon. Why can't I be myself(an introvert) in peace? This is why I don't like people much, because pretty much like the author, they judge based on their own theory, education or what society deems as normal.
I hate being around people, mostly because of trauma. Trauma of failing to earn their respect, failing to earn their friendship.
Did Panda forget to take its Prozac (Effexor, Wellbutrin, whatever -- fill in the blank) today ? Between a psycho God creating animals and this I feel like I've accidentally gone over to the dark side.
I'm also a introvert but then again wouldn't life be so very boring if you could live within your comfort zone?
75 per cent of my problems have been because of people so do not tell anyone if anything good has happened for you, they will get jealous and I hate the Mexicans that moved next door they broke into my storage building and took whatever they wanted and got away with it. they stalk me I can not go outside without them watching everything I do!
The automatic corrector made a mess. I'll have to hurry to the Court. Instead of "legal", read legs. Very efficient medicine. Instead of "assim", pls read ask.
Suggest this Panda to open a consult office. She will make "much a plata". A strong knee between male Panda legal will also bem very incoraging. Assim this German Panda to produção more service. I liked very much this naked photo of myself ????
