Disgusting savages; list them ALL itt

People who wait at the landing when you are climbing the stairs because passing on the stairs is bad luck or some such nonsense, and expect you to do the same.

^ yes but only if the stairs are clearly wide enough for two people to pass each other on

people in the subway station who sit there and spit loogies into the exact same spot over and over again

people who clip their fingernails on public transportation

(xposts to ledge) I am probably one of those savages on narrow staircases as I am fat and clumsy and think that brushing into people is generally best avoided. Not sure if I expect anyone else to do anything though except just not elbow me too forcefully if it could be avoided by pausing for half a second.

Mr Que otm

dude at bus stop yesterday who walked right up to the wastebin, paused, and then instead of using the bin projectile-spat chewing gum over the pavement about 3 feet away, you are a disgusting savage, but I guess you were aiming for disgusting savagehood as anything else would just be uncool (see N. Vague's males-up-to-17-and-poss-beyond post)

the public sector

Dudes who crop dust you at work, you are disgusting savages (altho I admit it's kind of funny when it isn't me)

-- people who walk three-abreast down the sidewalk.
-- people on the phone in public having a loud argument (somehow it doesn't bother me as much when both people are actually present, but there's something really self-indulgent and obnoxious about screaming into a handset).
-- gun owners who can't stop talking about and posting pictures online of all their guns. i don't care if you own guns, but why do i have to hear about them?

Sneezing and coughing on people?

--People who leave banana peels shoved between the seats on bus/train (or any other items).
--People who use their phone's speaker to play music on the bus/train.

Oh god people who do that with their phones on trains need axing to death in the fucking head.

Louis: most disgusting savages = people who smear shit all over the seats of public toilets

Louis is busy. You may be interrupting.

Thirded on the public phone speaker usage. Fucking savages.

people who measure the size of objects at known distance in angular size are the most disgusting savages in the world imo

People who, upon realizing that they have in all reality missed their exit, still try to take their exit by slowing way the hell down on the beltway and cutting across a grass embankment to get there rather than just turning around at the next exit are disgusting savages, imo.

The Swiss.

dammit dan stop tempting me to use urban dictionary at work

lol

crop dusting = walking up to someone, stealth-farting, and walking away

mostly disgusting savage, kinda lol

-- people who walk three-abreast down the sidewalk.
-- people on the phone in public having a loud argument

^^

xp hahah wow that is a thing that happens??

s.b.d.

not only is that a thing that happens, it is a thing one of my coworkers would do 24/7 if he could fart at will

sounds truly like a disgusting savage to me

every time he walks by and engages you in small talk, it's a signal to immediately leave and grab a cup of coffee because your cube will be uninhabitable for a minute or two

fucking awful, unless he does it to someone else in which case it's kind of hilarious

That's horrible, is it a hilarious prank or because there is something wrong with him that he can't stand still for 3 minutes w/o it happening?

It's because it's a hilarious prank. This is the same dude who likes to go into the bathroom and shout "ARE YOU ENJOYING YOUR BLUMPKIN?" at the guys in the stalls.

OK, disgusting savage status assured!

Do we have an "annoying coworkers who you find entertaining despite yourself" thread?

There should be! I have worked with two different creepy guys who attempted to charm ladies 40 years their junior with hands on the shoulder and long dull anecdotes, but with the power of my magical ugly ray both of them have ignored me studiously and visibly panicked whenever I said hi to them, i.e. I got to find them sad and funny instead of actively disturbing like all the other female staff did

People who discard chewing gum anywhere but wrapped up in a bin are filthy disgusting savages imo

People who don't express gratitude when you hold a door open for the, be they male or female, ESPECIALLY if doping this causes you to stand still for more than 1 second, are disgusting savages.

you passive aggressive turd

People who discard chewing gum anything anywhere but wrapped up in a bin the most appropriate containment unit are filthy disgusting savages imo

Well yeah but chewing gum is fucking horrible

could've just cut to the chase and struck out everything from who to unit but where's the fun

-- gun owners who can't stop talking about and posting pictures online of all their guns. i don't care if you own guns, but why do i have to hear about them?

this is because, in the end, there really isn't shit to do with guns other than shoot people with them. i bought one about 12 years ago, and found it pretty boring to have. i took it out a few times to shoot it and even that was a little boring. i ended up selling it pretty soon after.

you heard it here first: guns r boring

People who insist on writing checks in busy supermarket checkout lines but don't carry any writing instruments, causing the checker to spend two minutes searching for a pen for them AND then said person stops and fills out the balance book BEFORE writing the check.

related: people who don't have their money ready when they get on the bus; people who only begin to root around for their wallet when the cashier tells them the total.

TV studio audiences who clap along to music whenever it is played, for however short a time.

I'll sit in those seats! And then happily give them up when the old lady with the giant shopping trolley boards the bus

agreed, it is fine to sit there until someone needs them

alright fine

how old is the old lady

my knees are in worse shape than many imo

125 she dated Marshal Petain

London transport regularly does a "remember not all disabilities are visible" announcement. Did make me rethink my knee jerk tut tutting.

That's London for you, the... er.... woke... er Sharia Law capital of Europe.

ppl on public transport putting their phonecall on speaker have we done that I mean this week

Horrible. They're never talking about their sex lives or admitting to murder or anything interesting either.

i think you're on shaky ground there tbh

I was on a crowded bus one day in Dublin and a woman got on. The young man beside me stood up to offer her his seat, and she thanked him but said no, she was fine, she was only going a couple of stops, so he sat back down. Then she loudly said to everyone, "Jesus, I must look like shite today. This is the second time some young fella has offered me a seat on the bus."

my knee jerk reactions are part of my invisible conditions that require that i am seated
