Disgusting savages; list them ALL itt

People who only put as much paper as they need to print their own 1-page document into the empty printer, when a full ream is available, are disgusting savages.

the working class. all of them. without fail.

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.

no disputing no 1

People who don't fully check typos in msg board posts are disgusting savages.

working class >>>>>>>> upper class > lower orders > beasts

this is kind of ridiculous. if you're expecting a thank you for holding a door, don't hold the door.

jermaine jenas is a disgusting savage

xp we HAD this thread

(and suzy's otm)

People who don't think small gestures of politeness in public are worth a tacit nod in appreciation at the least are disgusting savages.

Mr Que

Sorry, Nick is absolutely OTM here. A brief acknowledgment/thanks to the person who held the door for you is all that separates mankind from beasts that eat their own poop.

wow y'all are fast posting today

me

The United States Steel Corporation

All males between the ages of 7 and 17 and a huge proportion of them after this age.

People who cut you up at a junction and then GET IN THE WRONG FUCKING LANE AND DO IT AGAIN AT THE NEXT JUNCTION are disgusting savages.

Yeah, I've held the age of 17, for boys, as the age of absolute peak disgusting savagery.

For ages.

Motorway drivers who hog the middle lane even when the inside lane is empty for the next half mile.

the Na'vi

People who write articles comparing the question "is god dead?" to the question "is indie dead?" are disgusting savages.

Oh good grief middle-lane hoggers; they're almost always, in my experience, middle-aged men in 4x4s too, not little old ladies in Fiat 500s. YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER, AREA-MANAGER-MAN, YOU SPEND ENOUGH TIME ON THE MWAY; BUT OH NO, YOU THINK YOU FUCKING OWN IT. Disgusting savages.

People who don't think small gestures of politeness in public are worth a tacit nod in appreciation at the least are disgusting savages.

a tacit nod or a verbal thank you. WHICH ONE IS IT SO I CAN NO LONGER BE EITHER DISGUSTING OR A SAVAGE THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

People who can't just let shit slide.

I just said "express gratitude" initially; tacit nod is fine, but verbal thanks always appreciated.

what about a smile? is a smile ok? or must it be a tacit nod

I demand a full-on reacharound and sloppy kiss.

DONE AND DONE

Fuck me. If I hold the door open for you, fuck me.

disgusting savages

i will fuck you but i am warning you i fuck like a disgusting savage who doesn't thank people after he fucks them

if you fuck someone competently you shouldn't have to thank them

People who leave their pants, their dissertation, and their newspapers on top of the shelving in the philosophy section of the library as evidence that they've been living in the building are disgusting savages.

Project managers

Damn. That makes me a disgusting savage on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons.

tramps

People who charge down the middle of the pavement/footpath and refuse to add four inches to their journey by moving slightly to the side for anyone else.

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?

explain pls

Yes, intrigued.

I went through a phase where I started slapping people's windshields if they were in the crosswalk. Looking back, not the best idea but it was fun.

I slapped the trunk of a cab that illegally turned the corner and almost hit me once, it was not a mistake I will make again. Driver immediately slammed on the brakes and shoved me to the ground. Would have been far worse had two, thankfully very large, construction workers been at the building across the street and intervened.

yeah, i never had a problem because since I did it from the front I think most people had several moments where they thought they had hit me.

ya - dude deserved his trunk slapped. had the same thing happened to a friend when a cab decided stopping at a crosswalk full of people was not necessary. driver got out and was immediately punched out.

I remember being in the worst depression i ever had when i was 19, walking down Tennessee St in Tallahassee and was completely adrift.

I crossed the street legally only for an inpatient driver to scream at me through his window "HEY! GET THE FUCK OUT THE ROAD!"

I was in no mood and instinctively flipped him off, only to hear tires screech and he screams "WHAT?!!". Kept walking in away from his direction with heart palpitating but he was all bluster and drove off.

We used to, as teenagers, thump the hoods of cars that protruded too far into the pedestrian crossing.

quite right too.

I like to get out an acetylene torch and saw off the portions of cars that have inched into the crosswalk

i want to string wires across the sidewalk to prevent delivery bikes from racing down them

karate kicked a car that approached me too closely at a zebra crossing once

xp Not sure if you know the conditions of that sort of work, assuming you don't I have to inform you that you are decapitating the wrong guys

i know it's illegal for an adult to ride a bide on the fucking sidewalk -- ride in the goddamn street like the rest of the commuters in this city

to be less snippy I have thought long and hard about my stance on this re: the immigrant labor population and just trying to make a dime in this shitty world, but this isn't about denying the labor in the first place, it's about following a regulation that is purely there for human safety reasons and not a barrier to access (which is, imo, buying a 700 dollar phone and a 1500 dollar bike)

it's solely because they are set unreasonable targets, if they don't break the rules of the road they will be too slow and will lose their jobs.

see i think that's nonsense. the act of getting from the door of the takeout joint to the curb/street is entirely negligible in this. there's no way getting a running start on a sidewalk makes all this go faster

and again, my complaint is purely about public safety.

you should really check out some articles about the worst jobs in the gig economy, of which this is one.

i'm not being heard

'delivering packages for amazon is a terrible job, they should be allowed to drive on the sidewalk'

it seems like it would be slower and more annoying to bike on the sidewalk

It's amazing when you take out a whole family

I have learned the hard way that it is common in France to replace the paneer (and cream) with laughing cow cheese in Indian dishes, obviously to cater to local palates. E.g. see French recipe for palak paneer below that tells you to peel & melt 200g of laughing cow. 😶 pic.twitter.com/GYHbmeVGnT

la vache qui rit is laughing at us not with us

I'm trying to imagine what that flavor profile would be like

gross

like English people making "duck a la orange" with undiluted orange squash in the 70s.

yes it shd be made with the sticky discs you extract from jaffa cakes

I'd eat it. and the laughing cow curry.

worst thing I've ever eaten was a microwaved burger from a stall in a bus station in prague. the meat was of the grade-f variety you got in school canteens in the 80s and had a distinctive taste of body odour, the bun was in parts soggy and in parts chewy and stale, the lettuce was warm, the mayonnaise was see-through. I still ate it.

I'm assuming the Italian-inspired McCafe in the Warsaw airport that served mostly pasta and pizza was actually fairly ingredient-authentic and I kind of regret not trying it. But.. McDonalds italian concept restaurant is still kind of a mindfuck for me

McDonald's in Guangzhou airport was a joke, I went there at 8.30am and not only did they not have breakfast, they also didn't have burgers, just chicken wings and ice cream cones. The one at Beijing airport had burgers at least, and next door was a Kenny Rodgers Roasters which only sold bad chinese food, it reminded me of one of the franchises in idiocracy or something where the function has changed but it still has the same name.

Dismayed by seeing people joking about killing youtuber's pets. One was an old lady who was very upset about it.

One of my favorite models made a video about her son dying in her arms and 18 people downvoted it.

And people who send sex worker's nude/sex photos to their families are lousy too.

Someone in my building insists on propping up unclaimed post *vertically* on a high shelf so that you have to both crane your neck and turn your head sideways to read the name on it to see if it's new or the same post that was previously placed horizontally. There's a lot of NHS correspondance at the moment for people no longer at the address so y'know I do keep checking them. The absolute fuck is wrong with people?

Of course this seems far too petty to say something about but with my residual vertigo it's unpleasantly dizzy making.

People that force you to be the middle man in a Convo. Not work but friends.

Don't tell me to ask somebody something and ask me to report back. Join our damn conversation!

Fuck the guy who invented the coaxial cable barrel connector.

Can’t ctrl-f on zing but have “adults who blow bubbles with their gum in public” been mentioned in here?

People who participate in or promote "crowd killing" at hardcore shows (or worse, other shows).

I guess also metalcore shows.

Like I feel like promoters who even suggest crowd killing is welcome at their shows should be charged if people get hurt

Can’t ctrl-f on zing but have “adults who blow bubbles with their gum in public” been mentioned in here?

Bubble blowing isn't nearly as bad as grown ass adults who loudly snap and pop their gum in an open office environment, definitely disgusting savages.

what is crowd killing?

Intentionally beating people in the audience, willing or not. Careening into them, punching, kicking. Apparently moshing isn't extreme enough anymore

used to call it "slam dancing"

There used to be this giant guy at every metal gig I went to - like 6ft 5, built like a wombat - and any time anyone got remotely out of line, he'd appear and essentially bounce them out of the pit, making it abundantly clear more was coming if they didn't chill out. He was a (big, fuck off) guardian angel.

I love those dudes

savages are the dudes that stand at the edge of the pit, shoving people with both hands, but don't actually get into the pit themselves

are we really calling people "savages" in 2023?

Yes
