Meeting new people is always an exciting experience. Sometimes, however, they say something that makes you instantly dislike them. An internet survey recently asked, “When you meet new people, what is a sentence that instantly makes you dislike the person?” Here are the best 18 responses.
Bragging About Being Rude
“I’m just kidding. I’m actually a really nice guy!”
“Some women love to say, “I’m sassy!”….. which just seems to be an excuse to be rude.”
I’m a Lion in a World of Sheep
“I train at an MMA gym as my hobby. The guys who come in saying that almost invariably last less than a full month. The most consistent new person I can remember was a skinny, nerdy accountant guy who always asked us to take it easy when we sparred or drilled for his first few months because he’d never done anything athletic and was a wimp (his actual wording was close to this I think).”
“Same for any woman who says “Boss lady” or “queen.” I love it. I know who to avoid. Instant red flags, rabbit in the cook pot flags right there.”
Entertain Me
“People that don’t know how to talk expect you to bring new subjects while they only offer one-sided answers.”
“Literally went on a date where the other party didn’t want to engage with the location we were at all whatsoever (fairgrounds), and I asked them what they would be interested in, and they say “It’s your job to entertain me.” I left them right then and there.”
Are You Familiar With Network Marketing?
“They always call it a “business opportunity.”
“Are you interested in secondary passive income? You get to be your boss, set your hours, and make money.”
Trust Me, I’m a Good Person
“I’ve noticed the type that says this is like weirdos that wanna “borrow” $10 (etc.) fully expecting to never pay someone back.”
“But when they say the opposite, like “I don’t feel like a good person” they turn out to be incredibly nice.”
I Don’t Like Drama
“Get ready. If this is a coworker or anyone you must be around, you will encounter a lot of drama.”
“I have a customer whom I see in town regularly. She will almost always point at someone and say, “I don’t like… they gossip so much”. I laugh and say, “Miss E, I see you gossiping,” and then we both laugh.”
I Have No Filter
“A guy I work with has no filter. He isn’t rude, but he has an absolute diarrhea mouth. He doesn’t know when to stop talking or what’s inappropriate to say at work or around people who aren’t your very close friends.”
“Oh, your parents failed to teach you healthy human interactions. So sorry.”
I’m Brutally Honest
“No, you’re brutal.”
“It’s dangerous to mistake speaking without thinking for speaking the truth.”
“No, you have no self-control.”
I Am a Human Lie Detector
“A new manager introduced herself with that line. She then went on and elaborated how she served in Navy Intelligence and was a certified genius and immediately after struggled to open the door when leaving to which I responded, “No wonder it took ten years to find Bin Laden.”
“Detecting lies is not super difficult. I wouldn’t brag about it, though.”
If You Can’t Handle Me at My Worst, Then You Don’t Deserve Me at My Best
“I hate this. I wouldn’t inflict the worst of me on anyone.”
“This kind of testing love or the relationship is a sign of serious trouble. The tests never end, and the stakes always rise.”
Just Wait Until
“I can’t stand people who will take a happy conversation and interject their misery into it.”
“I cannot stand the phrase anymore. It makes me physically cringe when people start sentences that way. Not everyone is miserable with their life choices. It blows my mind that so many people think that EVERYONE is as miserable as them.”
Back Where I Come From
“Everything is better in New York, but they keep moving to other places to tell everyone.”
“I’m in Denver, so we have an unending stream of transplants from around the country who complain endlessly about how the food, drivers, culture, etc., are horrible compared to where they’re from.”
Working Hard or Hardly Working?
“Hardly laughing.”
“I got to the point where I just awkwardly stare at them for a short while with the blankest expression I can muster.”
I’m an Empath
“”I’m an empath” usually means “I decide how you’re feeling, and then I try to one-up you.””
“People who claim to be empaths are often the least empathetic people I know. The ones that wear empathy as a label are usually selfish.”
Nobody Wants To Work Anymore
“Coming from the people who won’t pay my prices when they ask me about a vehicle detail and a ceramic coating telling me it’s too high.”
“Nobody wants to work at a garbage salary. I agree with that one.”
You Speak So Well
“I don’t see how either can be considered a compliment. I’ve been in Florida for a long time now.”
“I’m hard of hearing and just give them the same compliment back. The look on their faces is amazing.”
I’m Just Really Competitive
“No, you’re just using that as an excuse to be rude while we play this board game.”
“I hate people that say that. You’re not Michael Jordan. Stop trying to sound cool.”
Unsolicited Parenting Opinions/Advice
“It’s bizarre that people I’ve just met will randomly launch into telling me how to care for my child, but it’s a pretty good mark of an unlikeable person.”
“I get so tired of being judged because I’m drinking diet soda in a bar.”
