Public Etiquette Erosion: Annoying Habits That Deserve A Timeout (14 PICS)

"I hate it when people can’t put their carts back after grocery shopping. They leave them in parking spots or on a random patch of grass. Don’t be so lazy. This is how cars get dinged or how there are no carts when you go shopping. The cart people have to chase them from everywhere. Do better!"

"People who go on their phones in the movie theater. It completely ruins the experience. If you really can’t sit for two hours without pulling out the phone, at least leave the theater to do it."

"People who leave their trash all over in the movie theater. Pure laziness and complete disregard for the workers who aren't being paid enough to put up with it. Even after Ryan Reynolds called people out at the beginning of Deadpool, they still left garbage everywhere when the movie was over."

"I find it incredibly selfish and at times dangerous when people refuse to use their turn signals. Especially when you’re trying to make a left turn on a short stoplight and the person facing you can’t be bothered with signaling their intentions as to whether they are going straight or turning left."

"Since the pandemic, I’ve noticed a lot of people playing TikTok videos out loud in public. Like next to me in restaurants, on the bus, etc. The jarring new loud sound every two seconds feels like it was designed to put someone on edge. Same applies for people just watching YouTube videos out loud or having loud phone calls on speakerphone. Please, for the love of god, just use headphones!"

"Please, for the love, can you turn down your kid's tablet or phone or whatever the hell you have to shove in their face at a restaurant. I want to enjoy my meal without listening to Peppa fucking Pig. And yes, I am a parent. So I definitely know it's possible."

"Getting on the train and just stopping right in the door even though there's a dozen people behind you. I once had this lady scream at me because I wasn't expecting her to stop in the door and bumped her slightly. You can't block the train doors."

"People who cough or sneeze in public and don’t cover their mouth/face. Have we learned nothing from the pandemic?"

"I really hate when people take a full cart of groceries through the express lane. And the worst part is because of how violent and ill-behaved people have become, the employees aren’t even allowed to say anything anymore. So express lanes have practically become useless. So infuriating!"

"Why do so many people feel the need to stand right next to the baggage claim carousel?!? If everyone took two steps back, everyone could then easily and quickly get their bags off. I will actively hit you with my bag after I say, 'excuse me' and you choose not to move."

"Throwing gum or other trash in a urinal. Someone is going to have to fish that out, and there is always a garbage can in the room. Just being a j#rk for the sake of being a j#rk."

"My biggest pet peeve is when people leave their cars parked at the gas pump while they go inside to shop and use the restroom, especially at busy stations. I’ve been in a long line of cars waiting for people to come back with their snacks. Move your cars to the parking lot!"

"I work at a restaurant, and the lack of common sense and courtesy shocks me every day. First of all, why are you going out to dinner if you're gonna be on your phone the whole time and can't even acknowledge me, the server, or the person you're with? I can't set your appetizers down because you guys have pushed your plates and silverware and wallets right in the middle of the table. And you're looking at me like I'm the weird one!"

"Also, sir, the plate is hot! Please do not grab it. Sir, the plate is HOT. THE PLATE IS HOT. Whenever people try to grab something to help because there's 'no room on the table,' it's appreciated, but really, it's just their phone or their drink needs to slide over. Just move it! It's not that hard! I've had people drop plates before because they wouldn't move their sh#t and didn't listen when I said it was hot."

 

"I live in a small town in Indiana, and they do NOT understand the word 'freedom' that they use constantly. They believe they have the freedom to do whatever they want, whenever they want. Fireworks start late April/early May and go sometimes 'til August. Those huge BOOM! mortars. Until midnight. It’s hard to prepare your children and pets, too, because you just never know when. I have a video from late July 2021; it literally sounds like a war zone. For HOURS. Also, the trucks, muscle cars, and motorcycles modified to be LOUD have drag races down Main Street 'til 2–3 a.m. most Friday and Saturday nights in the summer."

"Everyone just throws their trash out their windows. We had a cute little downtown, but after 25 years of spending hours every week picking up trash downtown, I stopped in September 2021. But now, I pick up in front of my business, but screw the rest of it, it’s just too much. And the guns…Jesus. I could go on, but you get the picture. A bunch of gross @$$holes ruining the world for the rest of us, and ground zero is right here."

when I'm on cruise control, cars overtaking me, and then slow down while driving in front of me.

#9 - I was at the grocery and this happened. The lady in front of me had like 50 things in her cart. The cashier didn’t even say anything so I got her attention - I said “this is a 10 item or less line.” She got offended and said “Im in a hurry and the other lines were too long.” I said “yeah well now you’re inconsiderate rudeness is making 3 people with a few items wait for you” She didn’t respond but I figure she’ll think twice before doing it again. Got to call the j#rks out or they’ll just keep doing it.

Richard,

"Oooh! You're in a hurry! If I only knew, then I would've called my husband to tell him the person who is in a hurry is right in front of me! He'd love to know why I'm taking an hour to get 3 items, but it's because there's like, someone blablabla..."

#8 Even worse are people who wipe their face under their masks and put the mask back on, and then touch public items like door handles, electric signature pens, and keypads at checkstands. THAT is why masks "don't work" because they are touching their DAMN NOSE AND MOUTH, and spreading their germs! Everyone has forgotten kidnergarden lessons to keep their hands out of their mouth and only focus on the stupid sneezes.

#14 If people are doing fireworks that early, then your town/city council needs to set time/date limits like mine, and enforce them. If they won't then you are living in the wrong town for your tastes and need to move. That's how adulting works. Do it or put up with it.

#3 People do that because they can get away with it in the dark. Turn the light on when everyone STARTS to get up to leave and call out that they need to check their areas for any mess, and everyone gets embarrassed fast. Plus you can find the people who cause it and reuse then future entry. TRUST ME this will stop the issue. People believe they can do it if there are no consequences, but not when everyone can see their actions.

#5 #6 just take your phone and pump your music loud... would work if as many as possible people would do that at the same time.
