What is your least favorite quality in other people?

[Morpeko]

Cruelty/meanness.

There's no place for it and it can really hurt, both physically and emotionally, people and other living things who don't deserve it.

Wow, I have become such a softie...

 

[Ghost]

As far as traits I actually encounter in the wild, neediness and unironic braggadocio.

 

[Luminous]

Cruelty/meanness.

Same.

 

[Saturnal Snowqueen]

Besides violent tendencies, I'd say people who can't get off their high horse and try to look at things from a different point of view/try to truly understand the situation.

 

[Lark]

Cowardice. Whatever way that you choose to frame it or rationalize it.

 

[Firebird 8118]

Manipulation. I don’t care who you are or what your backstory is, if you resort to pulling others down to make yourself look and feel good, you’re as good as trash. Period.

 

[anticlimatic]

Weakness.

 

[Jaguar]

Ignorance.

 

[Ghost of the dead horse]

You know, like that one thing that just completely turns you off to a person with pretty much no hope of ever reconciling just because you can't stand it about them?

Mine: people who are argumentative for the pure sake of being argumentative. You can't say a single fucking thing around these people without them starting a debate about it. I cannot STAND it.

What are yours?

If they are anti-philosophical.

• Arguing on a failed logic, the kind of logic that's listed as one of the failed logics in arguments
• Not wanting to know more
• They don't think one's viewpoints have to be seen in a wider perspective
• They don't think anything can be right or wrong because of the power of the opinion
• Attacking facts
• Attacking reasonable produces which produce facts
• Attacking institutions and people who are trying to preserve freedom of thought

 

[Mind Maverick]

Hard to say, but maybe being excessively hierarchical.

 

[Maou]

Arrogance

 

[Stigmata]

Rigidness

 

[Kingu Kurimuzon]

Karenness

or Kenness, if you want the male version.

I'm sorry that your baked potato didn't have chives, but the waiter did warn you the kitchen was out of chives when you were ordering. No, you are not getting a comped room and meal. Yes, I understand you've been a Hilton Gold member for years. I apologize for the inconvenience, here, have a free piece of pie compliments of our room service.

 

[Lark]

Absent Mindedness

 

[Mind Maverick]

My older brother told me once about going on a date with a girl at this high class restaurant, only to walk out on her when she asked for A1 sauce for her $30 steak.

That seems incredibly petty to me. Who gives a shit? It's her taste buds. I hate it when people expect others to live according to these kinds of "rules" or "norms" they create in their minds. Subjective preference elitism, that's all that is. It's honestly kind of being controlling. Let the damn girl eat her steak how she wants to, who cares what you think about adding A1 to it? Why does everyone else need to share this preference? There are more important things in life.

 

[Klaus V.]

Narcissism, specifically the inability to self-reflect and admit mistakes.

[Mind Maverick]

This face

 

[Mind Maverick]

Dishonesty. When they are dishonest it is impossible to deal with them. Actually I don't care if they are narcissistic it is their own business.

I guess you're probably mistaking the above mentioned narcissism for being self-absorbed/having excessive self-interest? Narcissism isn't well understood usually, so people mix it up. Narcissistic people lie constantly, manipulate, play the victim, are grandiose, see people as objects, gaslight, blame others for everything, etc. They're basically psychologically abusive.

 

[Mind Maverick]

Excessively private. I'm fine with high privacy in the beginning or whatever, but...at some point I need to be able to have intimacy or else it's just not satisfying to me. I guess they could be a distant friend, but that's about it.
