Rudeness is often based in a complete lack of awareness. That is no excuse. Rather, the ability to be so oblivious about the motivations and needs of other people is a fundamental character flaw.


A rude act based on that tendency is merely the tip of an uglier iceberg.

A recent Reddit thread offered solace to the legions of people out there that were forced to bite their tongue when they witnessed someone behave unconsciously and at the expense of someone else.

The thread served as a gathering place for pent up anger that, all at once, had the chance to explode.

And the thread also may leave you wondering how you might be more conscientious and remember your manners when the circumstances leave mindfulness harder to come by.

Fonzie1225 asked,

"What is one thing that instantly makes you think 'this person has no manners?' "

Proudly Excluding 

"Inviting everyone in the friend group to an event and excluding just one friend then proceeding to talk about how much fun they're going to have at said event in front of the person that was purposely excluded, in front of everybody."

"Happened today and thought it was pretty rude."

-- TDiddy_

Unfettered Rascals

" Parents who let their children run rampant anywhere. I've seen parents watch as their kid pops their fingers through every package of meat at the grocery store and do nothing...."

"Parents who let their kids kick a strangers shoe or other belongings."

"Letting the kids spit on windows and rub it with their hands. Letting them run around the store, playing with anything and everything and leaving a mess for others to clean and the parents literally just ignore it!!!"

"I never understood that. They really are your obligation, not the store associate who's unlucky enough to be working the shift you happen to stroll in during."

"Be a parent!!! Bad kids can turn into shi**y people."

"The grocery store is a cesspool for inconsiderate people. Idk why this brings out the worst in humans."

"People who leave their cart in the middle of the parking lot, people who dead stop to turn around without looking and crash into someone else's cart, people who exit an isle into the main isle without stopping and crash into someone else's cart..."

"...people who spend an absurd amount of time looking at a particular meat section so everyone else has to wait, people who bring an entire cart full of food to the express lane, people who park in the middle of the driving lane and block traffic because the close spots are taken up."

"I could go on all day about how much I hate grocery shopping lol." -- Dopekick

Obstructions 

"When they walk into an elevator before you have a chance to get off. Same w buses and subways." -- guyuteharpua

Taking Service for Granted

"People who click their fingers at waiting or bar staff" -- GinAndBareIt92

Real Time Rudeness

"So I'd say that"

-- Shinichi-Migi
