Disgusting savages; list them ALL itt

The absolutely moronic people that honestly believe the existence of snow in and of itself completely disproves climate change. These people should all be sterilized to prevent further contamination of the gene pool.

that is actually how nazi germany got started

First they came for the climatologists, and I did not speak out, because it was snowing...

Maybe this is a bit esoteric, but people who tie shoes together and then throw them over telephone cables so that everyone has to look at their stupid shoes dangling in space over the street for months to come.

i usually assumed someone else did that to your shoes tbh

How else would we know where to buy crack?

we're in ireland/uk, jon- you can get it on prescription in our disgusting welfare states

I've heard this is actually a way for gangs to mark territories in some cities (New Orleans specifically) - not that this makes it any less disgusting.

It's dangly shoe gangs marking their territory.

I heard it wis to commemorate Sgt. William "Old Shoe" Schuman, shot down behind enemy lines.

Let me reiterate that people who take up the aisle seat on a crowded streetcar/bus/train and stare blankly ahead when other passengers (elderly, female, whatever) clearly would like to sit down are disgusting savages. I will refrain from listing the ethnicities of these passengers but I like to imagine that in those countries there are fleets of half-full buses and trains going everywhere. It's amazing public transportation achieves anything in those countries since they are probably only able to sell one ticket for every two seats. Re-education Now.

The asshats in front of me in the grocery store that not only took an entire cartful through the '15 Items or Less' line, but also paid for their entire $72 purchase with a JAR OF FUCKING QUARTERS sliding them into the self-checkout machine one at a time.

the only time i saw someone do the former was a senile caribbean man at the drink/sweets counter who was taking aaaages and trying to tell the inconvenienced that the country was a fucking disgrace and we needed to get the bnp in to sort it out, nobody reacted (stifled laughs excepted)

probably some karmic reminder of my insolence in considering a couple of miniatures and dairy milk to be an acceptable breakfast

Okay, okay, I'll just say it. Old Chinese people.

thread has come full circle

anyway I think that asia just might have a different bus culture - ime you need to make the movement like you're going to squeeze past them for the seat, at which point they will swing their legs out to let you in.

Yeah it's annoying when people do this, but really, just push past them

sit on their lap ftw

People who won't say "excuse me" are the most disgusting savages, particularly when combined with passive-aggressive glares and eye-rolling because you didn't read their minds and instantly move out of their way.

i say 'excuse me', but will absolutely couple it with the glare if i think it should have been obvious people are trying to get by.

Welcome to England

where "politeness" has come to mean refusal to communicate and then getting angry about it

Linked to this - people who huff and hmf.

Other side of that coin - people who deliberately pause before getting out the way, etc. I had a pal like that, would not do anyone a favour, no matter how small, without making the asker wait just on principle ('could you pass the salt?' 'give me two minutes'). It actually takes a while for that to become annoying, but my word does it drive you mad when you realise what he was up to.

This process contains worlds of pain. Not exactly savagery, but I've got a friend who WILL insert 'y'know' between almost every other word. Weirdly not noticeable at first - once you've noticed tho...

Wait wait wait but what about British deployments of 'excuse me' to mean 'excyoooze YOU' and 'sorry' to imply 'you should be, get your filthy self out of my way'.

ah now in fairness they're actually great!

I'm always bloody apologising, not in a passive aggressive way, just automatically. Really annoying. Used to bug the hell out of a Scottish friend of mine - 'What the f' are you apologising for? Stop f'ing apologising!'

'Sorry'

the correct retort is a friendly headbutt i believe

Correct.

1) people who wear UGGS
1a) people who wear UGGS in the SNOW

Seriously? It bothers me much more to see them worn in the middle of 100 degree July.

wearing ugg boots in the snow without waterproofing them = savage

the callous sophisticates laughed at judy's wet ugg boots.

People who stand in the left-hand channel of London Underground escalators, particularly when they are in charge of a small, wheelable piece of 'carry-on luggage'.

escalators often provide a shocking insight into just how lazy and/or oblivious some able-bodied people are.

People who are in charge of a small, wheelable piece of 'carry-on luggage'

People who take small, wheelable pieces of 'carry-on luggage' to and from work.

from way above re: smokers. ppl who think your discarded butt in the trash can or in the gas station parking lot is going to cause a fire probably wouldn't be able to light one themselves.

you can stop worrying unless it's 95 and windy in pomona

i mean the real answer is probably "everyone but yourself"

otm

i keep thinking of all the times my mom had to scold me as a child to not do shit like belch in public and how ironic it is as an adult i have to patiently explain to her that civilized people don't talk on their cellphones at a table in a restaurant,

imo the most disgusting savages are people who think too much about what constitutes disgusting savagery

Moms and the way they use technology in the 21st Century is a whole world of AAAAAAAAARGH.

wasn't meant to sound snotty, just more of a "i get annoyed sometimes too but u shouldn't get too annoyed u know?" sentiment xpost
