Religious people who have to post about their religion all the time

SAHMs with kids in school full time who go on and on about how busy they are. With home decorating choices, going to the gym, driving their kids to activities...stop going on and on about it, especially to your friends who work full time.

People who judge and trash everyone and everything while pretending they are just being funny - we know you are insecure and deeply unhappy.

Women who constantly trash their husbands - it’s weird and makes everyone uncomfortable. I can’t imagine being so disrespectful to my partner.

Okay, I actually think someone who made this their entire personality would be thoroughly entertaining.

So what? I could buy a whole catalog of stuff I had money.
And I’d probably get better at putting things together too.

If people do that fine. But don’t make it like you’ve always been into design. You got into design via a huge credit limit and pottery barn.

Very true, everyone I know who is "into decor" and gets lauded for "AMAZING DECORATING SKILLS!" also happens to be loaded. I'd be more impressed if someone with no money managed to make a statement with decor.

It is part of the sales pitch to praise someone's taste/decorating style to sell a kitchen, furniture, etc. I cannot believe how many people fall for the flattery.

This sounds like a new thread. Who hurt you?

Political affiliation, whether left or right. Not every subject needs you to pipe up with your political opinion of it.

Oooh I’m going to go with the opposite of the parent who makes parenting their whole identity and go with the childfree contingent they can not stop talking about how much they dislike kids and how happy they are not to have them. It’s a rare breed but, man, when you meet one you’ll wish you hadn’t

They literally just want to talk about themselves the whole time and have no idea how to reciprocate and ask about others. That’s probably why it seems like they make their interests their entire personality. You end up finding out all about what makes them tick, and they know nothing about you.

If possible, I try to avoid these people because they’re exhausting and usually boring.

What are these people called? Are these narcissists? I love them. All my friends are narcissists and they just love to talk about how great they are. I don’t really talk much or have any conversation so these people are a great fit for us autistic folks. If I ever have a problem I call one of them and they change the subject to how they handled a similar situation in the most perfect bestest way possible because they are awesome. And sometimes I get a good takeaway from that

You are supposed to travel for yourself, not for bragging rights, but travel has somehow turned into a bragging rights thing, which is shameful.

This is the problem with our whole society now. Everything has turned into a competition. Travel, parenting, working, remodeling. The “Look at me! I do X better than you!” phenomenon. And the fact that all these things appear contagious. If neighbor A and B remodel their kitchen, you just know which neighbors C and D will soon follow, even if they hadn’t previously discussed it.

I don't know if the whole society is like this, but certainly the DMV. It sucks the joy out of a lot of stuff.

Self proclaimed "foodies" (or whatever they call them now) too.

Striver culture in DC is a whole thing. I knew a woman whose "thing" was knowing all the hot new bars and restaurants. If a new bar or restaurant opened, she'd get mad if someone she knew went there before she did. This extended to travel, too, of course. She was friends with some of my friends so I saw her often and talking to her was so tedious.

But, relevant to this conversation, she later had a baby and now when we see her all she talks about is her kid and parenting and schools and activities and if someone mentions a vacation or a new restaurant, she loudly proclaims "WHO has the time or energy for that stuff with kids?!" Even though all of us have kids.

It's aaaaaaaall insecurity.

It is! Sooooooo vapid and boring. Yuck.

Yes. Insecurity and attention-seeking, which are the two least attractive qualities in an adult.

Making your high school or college part of your identity. Even worse are the parents of the students who make their child’s educational choices part of their identity.
