I'm not saying everyone who eats brunch is the worst, I'm just saying the worst people eat brunch.

That job must be so frustrating... People can be such assholes.
People who blare their car stereos and people with excessively loud motorcycles.
Oh yeah, fuck those loud motorcycles (please just use an electric one, they are superior in almost every way by now (but cost...)). I don't get how these assholes enjoy annoying everyone around them, especially when driving through highly populated areas.
I hate loud motorcycles too but electric motorcycles aren't ready for mass adoption yet. Nothing electric on the market today has great range and if you're out in the sticks where it's fun to ride there usually aren't many EV chargers. I will 100% jump on an electric motorcycle as soon as the range and charger availability meets my needs but we're just not there yet. I agree with you 100% on the noise though. A certain subset of riders need to stroke their egos by making loud noise and it makes all riders look bad.
I haven't heard a truly loud motorcycle in a very long time, but just today some old guy drives this huge hog up the street and you can hear it coming from a mile away.
Smug debatelords who "win" the argument they think they're having with you on a technicality such as spelling or semantics
Dog owners who let their little bastards bark or go off leash in public.
People who stop to chat in doorways.
People who stop to chat in doorways
I don't understand this one. I hope I'm not doing it.
Is it because it blocks the doorway for other people who need to use it?
Yes. Someone idly blocking a doorway isn't aware of the space they're occupying and how it may affect others.
People who are in their car, driving.
This is only whole they are driving, and it applies to almost every person.
People really lose it when they are driving a vehicle. Either they are a psycho behind the wheel or too non committal and mess up traffic.
I am included in this data set, I'm both groups, depending on the day.
Defilers of public washrooms. I've been doing a lot of travel recently. I have an ostomy so I haven't had to "sit down" in a bathroom for several years but for decades before that I did have to do that frequently due to a chronic illness. Travel then was a sheer nightmare of filthy bathroom after filthy bathroom. I still feel anger on behalf of others like me or people traveling with small children etc.
The people that basically destroy toilet stalls are the worst. I walked into a stall yesterday and it was soaked from one end to the other including all over the seat, etc. There was so much on the floor it was obvious this was intentional. Why? What kind of monster did this?
That same trip I went into a bathroom and every stall was inexplicably filled with guys just hanging out. There was a bunch of them all getting changed or something. I waited 15 minutes before giving up. I had nothing better to do since every flight is basically delayed now. I know there's really nowhere else to get changed in an airport but maybe, you know, go two at a time. Other people exist.
Anyway, people who are just cruel in an anonymous, nihlist way. That's it.
There are those who are petty and cruel, who enjoy tormenting the weak just for the fun of it.
There are those who are bigoted and desperate, who lash out at outsiders who never did a thing to harm them.
There are those who are manipulative and controlling, who deprive others of their freedom and independence.
There are those who are deceitful and vengeful, who entrap others into situations where they can exploit them and pretend it's justified.
There are those who are selfish and traitorous, who backstab someone who's just helped them.
And that's just in the first part of Baldur's Gate 3.
People who play music through speakers while hiking.
People who are unable to feel empathy for others outside of their "in-group". Racism, oppression, genocide, all of it stems from that same basic disorder. Unfortunately this is an all too common trait in humans.
People who steal / collect the eggs of endangered birds.
People who lean into being douche bags/trashy because pissing off/offending other people is the only thing that makes them feel good about themselves.
They often wear shirts that say stuff like "FBI, Female Body Inspector" or "You stomp my flag, I stomp you." With a picture of the American flag on it.
They often drive lifted trucks with fat offroad tires and push bars with a punisher skull or some kind of gun-related/blue lives matter decal stuck on the back.
We're not in a good place as a species when the first answer that comes to mind is "where do we even start with this?"
After some thought, my answer would be people who sacrifice another's long term prosperity for short term enjoyment. That's what most of my answers boil down to.
Tech Bros
- drivers of lifted trucks
- drivers of UTVs
- owners of vehicles with obnoxious exhausts or stereos
- people who park their shopping carts next to other carts in the aisle so no one can pass. Also accepted: walking three-abreast in the aisle.
This is far as I can go in the list without risking a stroke.
Me... I fucking suck at being a people. Why is it so hard? ๐ฉ
Those who lie and justify their lies, either with or without more lies.
Stupid people as defined by Carlo Cipolla.
