Recently, Reddit user u/0_7_0 decided to find out what are the prime examples of common sense.
On July 13, they made a post on r/AskReddit, asking people "What is one 'unwritten rule' that you believe everyone should know and follow?" And it blew up.
As of this article, u/0_7_0's question has received over 3,400 comments, many of which are valuable tidbits we all should listen to. Here are some of the most upvoted ones.

If I show you a picture on my phone, don't go swiping sideways.
If someone is wearing headphones and is clearly keeping to themselves, leave them alone!
Don't litter. It's really not hard to just not litter
Its not hard to keep it in a pocket until you find a bin
Don't watch loud videos on your phone at a restaurant. Can't believe this isn't common courtesy anymore
If someone is giving you a ride, you should be ready at the door before they get there. It’s so rude to have someone waiting on you when they are doing you a favor by picking you up
The 'wave' of thank you when someone lets you in while driving in traffic. It's just polite
Just because you know someone who does something for a living, that doesn't automatically mean they owe you a discount if you ask for their services.
I don't do art for a living but I do take commissions sometimes and this bothers me so heckin much...
If you want to go for a hike and listen to music, come with earphones or headphones. Don't blast loud music.
Quit pissing on public toilet seats. And if you do, at least have the decency to wipe it up
Or leaving little drops on the seat. Even if it's by accident, no one else wants to wipe it off so they can sit.
I don't care much about the little dribbles since I can wipe them off. It's the spray of diarrhea that some slobs leave that I object to.

Yes!!!! Please, especially you women who hover over the seat to pee and leave pee drops all over the seat! I understand that you are hovering because you think you're being hygenic and don't want to touch your precious butt cheeks to the seat. But clean up after yourselves! You're disgusting! Some of us aren't able to hover! I'm disabled, "hovering" isn't an option, and I don't want to wipe up your pee! /rant
I can sympathize with you. Surgeries on my foot and ankle. No hovering for me! Women are gross. My husband is more considerate! Also after many years of sitting on public toilet seats and never getting a disease it seams a waste of time and energy.

I sit down to use the toilet now. My fiancée loves that I do it because I've stopped sh*tting on the floor
or leaving your little poop inside a toilet without flushing! disgusting
... if it is little, there is worse possible, far worse ... a giant turd that didn't fit through the pipes once caused our office to, basically, not have a toilet for a day. No one admitted on having born this horsesized unit, haha, ...

You know sometimes, it isn't piss. Sometimes it's splash-back from the flush. I don't use public toilets and I pee sitting down, but I still see little wet drops at home.
Yeah I thought that too but I've never had water blowback when I use my own toilet at home or a friend's toilet that's just people who drink a lot of water
Load More Replies...
The other thing is work colleague’s who can’t replace a toilet roll, and dispose of the finished toilet roll. The toilet should be left how you would like to find it. No💩marks in the bowl, or urine to step over or clean up after.
This!! I swear some women perch on top of the toilet. It's the only explanation I can think of for how much pee they get on the seat.
I hate loos that splash water when they're flushed. That said, wait for the full flush and wipe off the water. Any liquid looks gross.
If you sprinkle, when you tinkle, please be neat, and wipe the seat!!! :)
Unless you're a guy who doesn't LIFT the seat to pee, how does that even HAPPEN? Some women just stand up mid-pee and get tinkle on the seat? Nah - this one's on you boys.
someone at my work recently managed to miss the toilet entirely and just peed on the floor right in front of the toilet. fully grown adult male. there was no reason (that we could see) that he couldn't have done it properly. tbh, he's probably on his phone, both hands and just wasn't paying attention :P
WASH it up. If you only wipe it up people are still sitting on YOUR PEE.
I've often noticed that the force of the flushing water, even with the lid down, leaves splashes on the seat. So, not necessarily messy loo users.
I sooooo need to show this one to my workmate who loves leaving me wet surprises in the toilet.
Another problem is that many of us seniors are on water pills. I need to use the handicap stall. When I need to go, I need to go NOW. My usual routine is look for any wetness on the seat. If I find it, wipe it off, then lay DRY toilet paper or a seat cover down. You get more protection than sitting directly on a dry seat. If it is wet, that will show up when you lay the tp or seat cover down. Wipe it off and repeat. I have more than once had to wait outside a handicap stall for some healthy or young person to come out. By the time I finally get in, I don't have the luxury of checking the seat. More than once have had a nasty surprise.
Yes! If you are someone who hovers, LIFE THE SEAT BEFORE YOU GO. The reason it's not clean is because of YOU. So, for those of us who want or need to sit, life the seat so you don't dribble on it. Also, consider sitting down like a normal person.
Oh, please - just frickin' clean up after yourself! No one wants to sit in your piss.
Once saw a sign, "If you sprinkle when you tinkle, please be neat and wipe the seat!"
"If you sprinkle while you tinkle, please be neat and wipe the seat!"
Oh my God one time while working for doordash and going into a restaurant to pick up an order another doordash delivery person who was male rushed into the women's bathroom in front of me then proceeded to pee all over the toilet and the floor and then didn't wash his hands!! Unfortunately for him I set out to make sure he no longer worked for doordash and delivered people's food anymore!
I hate so much people pissing on the toilet seat . If I go to washroom and see that, this is probably disctusting, but I will clean somebody else´s piss. I wouldnt want the next person to think I was the one that pissed on the seat.
Many toilets just flush hard. The droplets that are on the seat aren't from someone's poor aim, they're water from the toilet that has been flushed.
I want the world to switch to leaving the seat up on public toilets when they’re done. Then only people who need to sit on the toilet will put it down, leaving it relatively free of urine.
Um, women always sit (even hovering) and some men sit to urinate. So this won't be happening bc you are in the minority.
Load More Replies... My dad always left drops on the seat. I once was so full of disgust when he didn't even aknowledge that there were in fact drops of pee, that I wiped it off with toilet paper and tried to wipe it onto his face.
Teach your young sons to raise the freaking lid when they stand there and pee.
Don't just show up randomly at someone's house. Call, text, or otherwise reach out and positivity confirm that it's okay before heading to someone else's home.
I have some really close friends that we're comfortable enough to just rock up to each others houses, but don't do that unless it's someone you know won't have a problem with it.
When you have a complaint with a retail store or business, please remember that the person you are speaking too (or yelling at sadly) is just the one that happened to pick up the phone or is standing at the till. they likely have nothing to do with what went wrong and have little sway in what can be done to help. They dont need to be yelled and screamed at for something they did not do or is under the control of a corporate office/higher up.
I always talk in a polite and friendly manner when making complaints. I have found they are more likely to go above and beyond to help. And always thank them afterwards and compliment their ability to help as it makes their day.
Don’t touch pregnant people’s bellies.
What is it about being pregnant that suddenly makes other people feel entitled to touch you without asking.
PERSONAL SPACE (even when not in a pandemic)
I really care about personal space. Its one of the most important things
Don't leave perishable items in random aisles or at the checkout. You're wasting food and driving prices up.
Stand back before boarding a bus, subway, metro, or elevator so that those on can get off quickly without having to wait for you to back up first
On an escalator, stand on the right so people can walk on the left.
If u borrow even a damn dollar and promise to bring it back, bring it back
People, pls don't lend money you can't give. Meaning that you shouldn't go out of your way to lend what you can't afford to give. That way, if the person doesn't return it, you won't be broke. Thank you
Double flush if you must. Nobody wants to see your poop crumbs.
Never comment a person's weight, if they lost it, if they gained some. It's just very rude either way.
Don't talk loudly on the phone while you're in public transportation, it's super uncomfortable for everyone
Give up your seat to the pregnant lady on the bus/train (or to anyone else who needs it. Don't take up two seats because you like to put your feet/bag up).
Never ask a person if they're pregnant. It's just rude and you never know their medical history.
Similarly, never ask when they plan to have a child, or why they don't have children already. It's not your business and you don't know what trauma you may unveil. Maybe they had a miscarriage, maybe they did have a child who died at birth, or maybe they have been struggling to get pregnant.
If you borrow a friends car or truck, always return it with a full tank of gas.
The last one to go to bed has to turn all the lights off
When someone else is paying the bill, you shouldn't order something very pricey. (It's understandable if something expensive is the only thing you are able to eat.)
When you are shopping/looking for clothes and suddenly decide you don't want it anymore, put it back where you found it. Don't just dump it somewhere — it makes life hard for both workers who are cleaning up and the customers looking for something to buy.
If you make an appointment and can’t keep it, cancel or let someone know. I manage sales for a car dealership and we thrive on appointments. We understand things come up, just let us know. That simple gesture goes a long way.
Car salesmen can be very pushy though! My mum ended up making an appointment because the person talking to her wouldn't take no for an answer but she had no intention of buying the car and didn't attend. I understand what you're saying but she didn't want to have to ring and engage with him again, having been intimidated into making the initial appointment.
If your advice or opinion wasn’t asked for, don’t give it.
I believe it's called a conversation. People have been having them for a very VERY long time. People need to stop making everything about them.
If you are going to talk with someone about your problems/issues, do a quick check-in first. Like, 'Are you in a good space for me to talk this out with you?' I’ve used it a few times, and I think just the basic courtesy of asking is such a relief to people!
The last of any food/drink is reserved for whoever bought said food/drink
Always leave stuff cleaner than it was when you got to it (campsites, AirBnBs, anything shared with people really)
If someone can't fix an aspect of their appearance in five minutes or less, don't mention it.
If you’re about to turn the light on in a dark room and someone is there, you have to announce what you’re about to do so the person doesn’t get a surprise. I feel like it’s really disrespectful to turn the light on without announcing it
When walking through a store, treat the aisles like lanes on a road. Keep to the right.
Don't bombard people with a ton of taking when they obviously feel tired and overwhelmed, they are having enough trouble with their own stuff, to deal with all of your stuff.
Never drink the last beer if you didn't buy them.
Someone on a budget wrote this. If you're offered the last beer, you get the last beer.
Also, if someone doesn't speak your language, don't yell the words at them. They are not def, they just don't understand you
The platinum rule: treat others as they want to be treated. Something you think is polite and respectful might be insulting to them

I think this could be a much longer list. For example, 1. If it's down to two ice cubes, refill the tray. 2. It someone is using their turn signal (that is, you can figure out what they want), let them merge. 3. If something is running out (paper, toilet paper, cold beverages) and you know how to refill it and there's that item available, refill it. 4. Unless you have a mask on, sneeze into your dang elbow already. 5. If someone smiles and says hello or good morning, say it back. A less obvious one: 1. Don't tell a parent of a special needs child how to better help their child --especially if you don't know the situation very well. I would say even if you do know it well. You have no idea how challenging it is to manage this and having random suggestions (some of which logically aren't even possible, in conjunction with other suggestions) is even worse. There's more, but I'll stop.

This might not be an issue soon with Delta numbers on the rise, but don't ask someone why they're still wearing a mask in public. They might be immuno-deficient; they might just feel better wearing one (or being polite).

Politeness, decency, empathy. Apply those 3 and solve 90% of the above.
Also, idk if this was added or not I kinda skimmed the article, DONT TOUCH ME. I really hate being touched unless I say you can touch me, or your like my mom. But that’s it. And if your a sibling or a stranger, I will not hesitate to punch/slap you if you touch me. Respect people’s space. Don’t be an idiot. Also, quick thing, if someone comes out as gay/lesbian/bi or whatever, please don’t make a big deal about their sexuality. I have a friend who just came out as lesbian, and she told our mutual friend who then proceeded to make a big deal of it and just make things generally awkward. Unless they say the want it to be a big deal, don’t make it one.
The store shelf or table is not your garbage can. No one that works in that store is there to clean up your mess, grow up and put your coffee cup, water bottle away yourself.

Waiting in line: Do not make a person in front of you feel uncomfortable with agitated, impatient body language. Even if they are doing something wrong buying a full cart of items in 15 or less aisle, or they’re taking to long (for you). You never know what their life is like. The elderly could be having memory issues, someone may have just gotten a cancer diagnosis, is in extreme pain, etc…. I tend to be as polite as possible when in public, but I really learned about this after two simultaneous major traumas (one physical, one not) and I had real difficulty. I was rude at times without even noticing it - something I would *never* do otherwise. This works with driving too. Just imagine the person causing an annoyance (as you see it), make up a story for them. Even help if appropriate. It really helps.

(My first post ever) People know it's rude to be late, but not that it is equally rude to show up early. The person you're meeting may think they still have 15 minutes to shower or finish up whatever they are doing. So if you are supposed to be there at 6pm....don't show up at 5:45 unless you get the all clear.
all European working class men (hourly workers) who come over to the US to work on loan from your companies back in Germany or France, take note: in the US, you are expected to shower or bathe every day, wear deodorant, and wear fresh clothes. This is practiced by all working men in the US. Workers from Germany come over here to Texas to work at the Bayer plant. They have to take an orientation class, "Working in Texas" its called. The first bullet point of a long list is to bathe every day and wear fresh clothes. Working men in Germany may only take a thorough bath once every month. They think it is enough to towel off at the end of the day with a wet towel and to wear yesterday's smelly clothes. A frenchie electrician came over here to commission a generator plant with equipment sold by a french firm. He never got the message, even after US workers left "presents" on his desk of bar soap & deodorant. The US workers called him "Monsieur Steenkeey" (Mr. Stinky) after a while. This goes for you Australian working men also. Come on, guys, bathe or shower. Wear fresh clothes. Okay?
side note: I met a british working man once who did not appreciate the advice. He said, "Now listen here, you bleedin' colonial: I bathe once a year whether I need it or not". A**hole....

If you are not busy and want to talk...talk, but don't get in my way while I am listening to you and getting ready for work.
1/ if you ask for a job, and get hired, don't miss work until you're very ill. Your salary falls only because your boss company is running. 2/ Don't buy stuff if not really needed. You'll get bored of it, and it pollutes. Also aim for more expensive, but more durable stuff
You mean don't miss work unless you are ill, even slightly. Going into work sick gets everyone else sick and costs the company more than if you just stayed home.

1/ if you ask for a job, and get hired, don't miss work until you're very ill. Your salary falls only because your boss company is running. 2/ Don't buy stuff if not really needed. You'll get bored of it, and it pollutes. Also aim for more expensive, but more durable stuff
You mean don't miss work unless you are ill, even slightly. Going into work sick gets everyone else sick and costs the company more than if you just stayed home.

Learn about and use the courtesy flush when using public restrooms. It covers noise and reduces odors by quickly removing offending matter.
Boredpanda is just stealing stuff from reddit and posting it in another fashion.
That's their business described in one sentence!

Ah, if only being a parent required some basic knowledge of parenting and good morals. But alas, every nutcase can breed and feed a child and no one intervenes if they don't actually raise the child. Leaving us with many people who need stupid posts like this to learn basic human decency (and then don't, because they don't read it or don't care).
#41 If it is on reddit, leave it on reddit. If it is on Facebook, leave it on Facebook. There is no point to calling your website SleepyZebra or something if all that is on it is reposts from some other site(s). Might as well call it RedditReposts or FacebookFunnies if you aren't going to post anything original.
#42 Don't assume that someone who disagrees with you or doesn't approve of what you do hates you. That is illogical and usually wrong.
