Your friend is 20 minutes late for brunch. What do you do?

I text "Everything okay? :)" but inflate the wait time a bit.

I narrate the delay like a doom podcast.

I mention to a mutual pal that the late friend insisted on this cafe, so...

I smile and say, “No worries,” but reorder coffee so it arrives cold when they sit down.

I claim they told me an even earlier meeting time.

I scroll their Instagram, wondering if that fancy vacation photo was really worth ditching me for.

You’ve been assigned to a group project at work. What’s your first instinct?

I immediately ask for access to everyone’s files so I can organize the work properly.

I say, "Well, this will probably crash and burn,” before anyone opens a document.

I volunteer to be the point person.

I assure a teammate that the initial idea was mine.

I set up a spreadsheet titled “Mistakes Tracker” so we know who slips up.

Your partner forgets to take out the trash again.

I leave the overflowing bag by the door as “a helpful reminder.”

I insist I did mention it three times, even if I’m not totally sure I did.

I mutter about how nothing good ever happens in this apartment.

I point out the neighbor’s spotless bins and ask if they need a tutorial.

I promise to handle trash duty… then spend 10 minutes debating whose turn it really was.

I shift the conversation towards the city’s confusing pick-up schedule so no one feels personally attacked.

You spot a former classmate showing off a luxury car on social media.

I comment, “Must be nice when luck just drops things in your lap.”

I DM another friend, “Guess they’re compensating for something.”

I suggest we meet for coffee so I can “learn their secrets.”

I drop a heart emoji on the post but mute their stories for a month.

I say the algorithm probably boosted their pic—numbers are an illusion.

I hint that maybe the car is leased—hard facts are hazy these days.

A coworker gets the promotion you wanted.

I message the colleague: "Didn’t you say you didn’t even want that job? Funny how the world works. :)"

“Figures. Nothing good ever comes my way.”

I congratulate them loudly while calculating how to outshine them next quarter.

I schedule a 1-on-1 with the boss to discuss “team alignment”.

I leave a sticky note on their desk: “Watch your back with upper management.”

I say HR clearly moved the goalposts, so nobody could have predicted this.

A friend calls to vent about a terrible day.

“That reminds me of when I had it worse.”

I offer to help by handling their to-do list, starting with taking their mind off things by helping me move.

I answer, “No problem, I'll listen,” but let their call go to voicemail twice first.

I nod along yet pepper the chat with “Life’s a mess, right? Nothing changes.”

I tell them another friend probably started the chain of problems they’re having.

I question if they’re even remembering events correctly.

The restaurant brings you the wrong dish.

I tell the server, “I’m fine,” then glare at the plate as if it insulted my lineage.

I exclaim, “Who ordered this?” while pointing at my friend’s menu choice.

I say, “It’s okay,” but reposition my fork so no one can snag a bite of my new meal.

I offer to split the wrong dish with someone else.

I casually ask if anyone else tasted a weird spice.

I stare enviously at the correct entrée cruising by on another tray.

You missed a deadline by a mile.

I tell the team that the original brief was impossible, which must be a planning issue.

I insist that the reminder email never arrived.

I mutter, “Of course this happens to me,” and refresh the calendar.

I gift the boss a half-finished draft and declare, “At least you can see my vision.”

I suggest we move the entire project timeline.

I note that a rival department caused the bottleneck.

Your group of friends chooses a beach vacation, but you'd rather hike mountains. What's your move?

I create a persuasive slideshow on why altitude cures boredom.

Sigh that sunburns are inevitable and the trip is doomed.

Remind them they actually said last month that they hated sand.

Mention how jealous you are of influencers already posting mountain pics.

Point out that you only agreed because nobody said it was going to be a beach holiday.

Say you'll book your own trip and stomp out of the group chat.

You find a surprise twenty-dollar bill in your coat pocket. First thought?

Sweet, gonna slap it on the counter and demand extra hot sauce.

Bet my sibling planted it to trick me.

Perfect bribe money for my next friendly favor.

Weird, I told myself I never carry cash.

The universe's reimbursement for the coffee runs nobody paid me for.

A potluck sign-up sheet lands in your inbox. You bring…

A recipe that "everyone loved last time"

A dish nobody else knows how to make

The same apple pie as Cousin Grace, just better

After losing a board game, your wrap-up speech is…

Figures, my luck is trash tonight.

I would've won if I had your starting pieces.

Gently nudge the board so pieces scatter.

I demand a rematch with new rules outlined.

Clearly the dice were defective.

Wait, I'm pretty sure I was ahead two turns ago.

Your alarm rings on a workday. First reaction?

Convince myself five more minutes will boost productivity later.

Groan that the universe is conspiring.

Tell my partner they heard no alarm.

Check socials to see who gets to sleep in.

Blame the alarm for waking you up.

Stuck in traffic, you...

Predict I'll die of old age here.

Lay on the horn like I'm tapping Morse code.

Assure the passengers that it was clear on this route yesterday.

Glare at the carpool lane riders.

Signal sweetly, then merge ahead of them.

Claim city planners set this up to fail.

You order coffee at a self-checkout and quickly type in your name, however, the barista butchers your name written on the cup. You...

Insist you spelled it correctly.

Note that nothing ever goes right before caffeine.

Joke that this type of misspelling calls for extra whipped cream.

Scribble the correct spelling in giant letters on the counter.

Check if they botched other names too.

Hand for a better pen while hinting it's the pen's fault.

Host game night where you pick all activities.

Promise to help a friend move then cite sudden car trouble.

Binge climate-doom documentaries.

Tell everyone you're "out of town" but actually stay home.

Endless social-media scrolling.

Coworkers flashing new gadgets.

Being blamed for mistakes I didn't make.

When people don't follow my carefully crafted guidance.

Someone claiming we agreed on something I don't recall.

Slow walkers occupying the entire sidewalk.

Your inbox hits one thousand unread emails. You...

Mass delete and dare anyone to question.

Tell the team the system must be glitching, because you received nothing.

Keep emails from important people, and delete the rest.

Peek at my colleague's clean inbox.

Email IT, accusing the spam filter of failure.

During annual family photos, you...

Eye my cousin's designer outfit a little too hard.

Arrange everyone's positions so your best side shows.

Mutter that the lighting will wash everyone out anyway.

Remind everyone this is your original idea.

Tell the photographer it's their fault we're doing this.

Favorite podcast genre?

Psychological mind-bender mysteries

When you misplace your keys, the first sentence out of your mouth is…

Bet the neighbor never loses their keys.

If someone helps me, I'll buy coffee.

I definitely left them right here.

According to the answer options this quiz is only for terrible people who cannot react to anything in a grown up, healthy way.

yeah buddy i can tell you your toxic trait profile, answering any of these questions makes you toxic because every option is toxic as f**k. literally the first one is all passive aggressive ways to make your friend feel bad. if it were for me it would have to say "text back and say no worries because you are running 20 minutes late too"

This quiz is made to demonstrate that you are necessarily toxic. Almost no response offers a non-toxic reaction.

At the very least, they should include a category of none of the above. Because most of these for me were none of the above.
