Humans evolved to be compassionate and understand other people’s pain, unfortunate circumstances or irrational behavior. It might be because they have gone through it themselves, they can imagine how it might feel or just believe the person when they share how hard it is for them.
Even though we are compassionate, we can’t help but be judgemental as well. There are things that annoy us and we can’t find an excuse or meaning behind certain behaviors, although we often keep it to ourselves.
People were given the opportunity to vent about it on Reddit when nosovietspyhere asked, “What is something you silently judge people for?” In a week, more than 15k people joined the thread and over 19k people upvoted it confessing what behaviors they simply don’t understand and make them dislike the people conducting them.

Being obliviously in the way. Like getting to the end of an escalator and just standing there. Or standing with a group of people in a doorway or aisle. Or stopping to stare at your phone in the middle of the sidewalk.
Just move out of the way like 2 steps and everyones life is easier.

I hate when ppl leave their paper coffee cup on a random shelf in Walmart when they’re done with it. That’s so gross and entitled. Throw away your own garbage.

Hyping themselves up too much. Saying s**t like “that wouldn’t fly with me, everyone knows not to mess with me” or “people look up to me” or “I’ll have your back until you cross me” like bro this isn’t a movie, relax. I don’t think these people understand that the more you have to hype yourself up, the less people actually think that of you.

The only time I feel I judge people like this is when I’m driving. Speed up, pay attention to the road, use your signals, and don’t be an idiot. It’s not that hard.

People who act victimized when in reality they’ve never been a victim of anything in their lives.
May or may not have some family members that do this and it drives me f*****g insane

When a parent gives a child a “unique” name that’s obviously not specific to their culture, but a mispelled or made up name like “Spenser” or “Alivia” or “Mayson”.

I understand being in a toxic or s**tty relationship and that some people can’t leave. I understand that. But I’ve met some girls who are balls deep obsessed with their s***ty a*s boyfriends and think that they can change them or think they’re in love when the guys an a*****e and a bum. My neighbor for example cares more about her druggy boyfriend than her own child. Stuff like that I will judge you for.

When I hear people s**t talking someone due to their appearance/ clothes. So f*****g shallow but its not worth calling people like that out.

Kinda niche but…
I silently judge people who do extremely hard hikes/dangerous hikes woefully unprepared or wearing sandals/sneakers/inappropriate footwear.
I live in Colorado and too often we get headlines related to these kinds of people. There is no excuse with all the resources available to research the hike you’re doing. Ultimately, S&R is going to have to use THEIR resources to save your a*s from something that was of your own doing. But I judge silently because I believe that sometimes, you do need to learn the hard way.
