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.

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.

No, non of these. The fact that I'm not a people's person doesn't mean I'm an internet troll.

Hobbies. They make me happy, especially since they entail no human interaction. When the phone rings or I hear knocking on my door, I remember again why I hate people.

i love to hate people. If anyone has a problem then go f**k yourself

I don't hate anyone, I just don't want to be around people I don't know. Hell I don't even want to go to our family reunion every year, I don't know half the people there. But my Mom and my daughter make me go. So i go, stay a couple of hours and then go home. That way I can say I went and no one gets mad at me. I know this is not a hobby, I'm just thinking out loud. And while I'm at it I'll say this, it is extremely difficult to sift through people and find somone who is NOT an idiot.

That's just sad. But, I love people, so it's why I cannot relate. Commandment 2... Love thy neighbor as thyself. You will be a much happier person and be obeying God.

Obeying a fake being from an ancient storybook? Nah. If he were real then it'd be his fault idiots exist, therefore why listen to a thing he supposedly spewed in that ridiculous book of BS? People suck through and through. I love my family and my dogs. That's where it begins and ends. Friends? Worthless. People on the street? They'll just take advantage of you given a chance. Helping society? Nope. I'm also not ashamed to tell someone to not bother me. In an elevator, saying "I don't care to have a conversation" is quite easy and enjoyable. Especially the look on their face. F*** people. The human race is the most evil, most disgusting, most shameful organism alive. If I never had contact with another human I'd be very happy.

What do you think ?

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.

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.

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.
Phil Metzer 5 years ago
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.
