Reddit user meulinlalondeowo asked: 'What's something that someone can do, that makes you instantly hate them?'

Unfortunately, we can't all get along with everyone. Sometimes, we don't mesh with people. Other times, we did get along until we got burned by the other people one too many times.

And sometimes, they do something that bothers you so much that you hate them instantly.

For me, it's a co-worker who says they will complete a task, then pass it off to me at the last minute since they know I'm too shy to say no. I don't mind doing the work; I'd just like to that I have to do it before the deadline.

I tend not to be friendly to those co-workers. It stops them from trying to pull that again.

Redditors have identified the behaviors that make them instantly hate someone and are ready to share.


It all started when Redditor meulinlalondeowo asked:

"What's something that someone can do, that makes you instantly hate them?"

Don't Be A Slob

"Coworkers that don't clean up after themselves, leaving their personal crap for others to pick up."

– TiredOfEveryting

"This drives me crazy at my work place. The break room is always a mess. People leaving their things in the good spots and making it seem like they're saving the spot and then just don't come back. Leaving the tables dirty and sticky after they're done eating. Never pushing their chairs in."

"Like, yeah, we have cleaning staff but they aren't waiting around to clean up after every person. And even if they were, youre a f**king adult and should wipe up your own damn messes."

– StinkyKittyBreath

Not Funny

"Pranking someone in a way that deeply upsets them then laugh in their face"

– WiseOldChicken

"‘It was just a joke, why are you getting upset?’"

– Hellostranger1804

"A long time ago I was working at this cheesy company and they had this thing where the district manager would randomly call one of the offices once a month and ask whoever answered (rotating call system) what the top values of the company were. There was like a list of 5 things. If you got it right, you’d win $1,000."

"Well, one day I got the phone call. My heart was in my throat because I was so nervous, but I knew the answers. I felt like my prayers had been answered. I couldn’t pay my rent, I was always low on gas or completely out of food, I had even gone without heat in my car during Northern winter because I couldn’t afford to fix it. I was always drowning, no matter how hard I worked, with no resources, no credit or help around me—always stressed."

"Well the manager congratulated me for my knowledge and told me I won the thousand dollars. Still on the phone, I felt like a weight lifting off me, a sense of joy and ease coming—until a few people, all guys, came over laughing their a**es off and said it was “Dave” pranking me. I died inside."

"I started crying and yelling how cruel it was to do that. I was a young girl, in my early twenties then and Dave was like in his 40’s, I think. I was in disbelief. I am always friendly to everyone. Why me? They didn’t care how much it upset me. The whole lot of them. I’m 47 now and still remember the disappointing ache I felt in my heart that day more than twenty years ago. F**k you, Dave, and you other fools too, wherever you are!"

– IntrigueMachine

I Didn't Do It!

"Accusing me of something that I didn't do. Brings out instant ire in me."

– Pianowman

""I know you're lying because you're getting defensive about it.""

"rage."

– Kraymur

"They don’t seem to understand the concept that a person being accused of doing something they actually didn’t do would defend themselves."

– Intrepid-Lecture3077

Liar, Liar

"When they are lying, and I know that they are are lying, and they know that I know that they are lying, but they continue the lie."

– TrailerParkPrepper

"You are describing my brother."

"You forgot the part where you call them out on the lie, and they get angry with you because "they're not lying.""

– Pianowman

"My old boss."

"Boss: Why are you doing that?"

"Me: That’s what you said to do."

"Boss: I didn’t say that."

"Me: You said to do exactly this and I have witnesses that can confirm it."

"Boss: ………(storms off angrily) I got fired."

"Best thing that ever happened to me."

– audiorob1210

Just Be Nice

"When someone belittles someone for being excited over something or having a hobby"

"If someone says for example that they love to crochet and they’re excited to spend their day off making a new hat and someone makes fun of them they can get f**ked. No one should be made to feel bad for finding enjoyment in something harmless."

– Mushroomc0wz

"Rain on someone else's rainbow. If someone truly loves something like video games, a film genre, a sport or some other kind of interest/passion etc., and a person goes "that's a bit childish" or "X...is so boring" after they've explained why they love it, that to me is just mean and instantly turns me off."

– Soshedid2991

Animal Cruelty Is Not Okay

"Be cruel to an animal"

– Flimsy-Attention-722

"Throw a rock at a duck. It happened, i hate them."

– ohmyperfection

Litterbug

"litter"

– Flimsy-Attention-722

"I visited NOLA earlier this year and witnessed blatant littering right in front of me for the first time. This guy was walking out of a convenience store opening a candy bar, took the full wrapper off, and tossed it on the ground. Had that person waited 3-4 more strides, it would have literally landed in a trash can. I was bamboozled!"

– Bears_in_the_woods

Family Should Be Respected

"Talking bad about their spouse or children."

– SaiyanGodKing

"There's a guy who started at my work, sh*t talking his wife from day one. I told him he better show his wife some respect. The unfortunate thing is that I think this guy thinks he's just being cool or funny saying these things. But then they had a kid and the "jokes" were suddenly about both of them. He made a crack at them in a meeting with all my coworkers and I piped in and said "Jesus Christ dude, everytime you open your mouth I wanna smack the sh*t out of it""

"Haven't heard a negative thing about his wife or child since. Folks, ITS NOT F**KING COOL"

– JMC1110

My Turn To Talk!

"When they either accidentally or intentionally talk at the same time as someone or just straight up interrupt, they never go, "Oh sorry you go" but instead brute force their talking through."

"A girl in my indoor soccer team used to do this and one time I said to my friend, "The next time she does it, I'm just not going to back down." Next time, she interrupted me it was me and her talking to my friend continuously for like 2 minutes with him losing his mind trying to listen to both of us and at the end of it it was like she was completely unaware."

– SkinkaLei

Respect The Space

"Leaving their shopping cart blocking the entire aisle, totally oblivious to the existence of every other human in the grocery store."

– Dynamo_Ham

"Also, people who leave their shopping carts in the parking lot. Especially when blocking an open parking space."

– khelwen

"So brutal. Just callous pointless conduct that takes at most 15 seconds of effort to fix. Why?"

– Dynamo_Ham

"I love this so much! I'll find another unattended, sideways cart and swap a couple pretty noticeable items between them. Then when dipsh*t finally wanders back they just stare in hilarious confusion; they're pretty sure this was their cart, but the case of water is gone and they didn't grab that bottle of wine that's sitting on top so maybe it isn't. You can practically see the steam coming out their ears as they struggle to process it."

"Shopping with idiots used to be a huge source of stress, but I've found ways to make it entertaining."

– Belphegorite

Drive Safe

"Not use a turn signal."

"F**k you you piece of sh*t. I don't care what the f**king reason is. USE YOUR F**KING TURN SIGNAL."

– MickCollins

"And do it correctly."

"Can't tell you how many times I see a lane switch and when the car is already half way over the line will they grace us with a single half blink."

– AngelOfDeath771

I can't tell you how many times I screamed at other drivers (in my head) for not using turn signals. It's no joke!

Anti-Trump Stickers Keep Getting Spotted On Gas Pumps—And They're Absolutely Brutal

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's decision to join Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in attacking the country of Iran directly caused gas prices in the United States to soar and even Trump's MAGA minions aren't happy about it.

Many who are turning their back on Trump have cited the POTUS's negative impact on their cost of living and the influence Netanyahu, himself under investigation by his own country for corruption, has over the Trump administration.

Trump's AG Sets Off A Firestorm With Claim That Americans 'Want Their Tax Dollars Spent On' Trump's $1.8 Billion Slush Fund

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is facing heavy criticism after claiming that Americans "want their tax dollars spent on things like" President Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund that may go to his allies and those who participated in the January 6 insurrection.

The Justice Department said last week it was creating the fund as part of a deal in which Trump agreed to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS. But despite a press release, memo, and a newly-released settlement agreement, many details about the program remain unclear.

Getting a new pet is a big commitment, and when you decide to take the plunge, you should commit to keeping them for their full lifetime.

But if you're going to get an animal that you have no prior experience with, you also have to commit to doing your research so you can care for them properly. While getting advice from a fellow pet owner is helpful, it's always good to double-check their facts.
