Passive aggressive things people do that annoy you.

For me it has to by lmgtfy.com

I just imagine the person going to all the effort of getting a wanky 'let me Google that for you.. now, was that so hard?' link when they could have actually answered the question for the same amount of effort saving people from clicking away from the page. I imagine their smug faces as they think they are so clever doing something that everyone got sick of in 2009.

What passive aggressive tactics in real life or on the internet grind your gears?

Smilingly reciting some petty rule that defies all common sense and makes me want to stand on their nose. Usually when I'm attempting to fill in some stoopid form or other. Usually perpetrated by smug, arrogant, dopey bints behind some official counter, safe in the knowledge that should I so much as mildy protest, they can cry harassment and call security, etc etc. Think along the lines of "Anger management" - "Stop shouting at me SIR".. Classic example was some git at the entrance to a Zoo informing me that my twelve year old was actually an adult for admission price purposes... feck off...

I offer to give people a lift and then I deliberately make sure they are late and if they try to hurry me up I say 'Okay fgs I'm the one doing you a favour - don't be so precious'.

Then I secretly revel in their frustration and internalised anger and give them no opportunity to vent it by being super nice to them while giving the lift.

Nasty eh?

Is this a good example of passive aggressive behaviour? (below)

People who leave passive aggressive notes really piss me off.

Shove it up yer hole.

The online equivalent would be naming your wifi something dickish.

This seems to be an abbreviation of the phrase "Let me google that for you". A poster may say this to another poster on a forum so as to demonstrate the perceived laziness or lack of awareness of another poster, so as to gain positive peer recognition from others and an inflated sense of worth.

I like to trip people as they walk past me. Am I doing it right?

Yes, but only if you smile and say they had somthing on their foot you were trying to get off for them.

I abhor passive aggressive people they are the biggest wankstains on the planet.

A girl I know from previous work always smiles in a really patronising manner if I'm disagreeing with her about something work-related (she was completely and utterly **** at her job and didnt make it past probation) and chuckles (yes actually chuckles) and says something like "oh fiery women... I'll let you work through whatever it is that's bothering you yourself before we talk about this".

C**t.

People who answer simple questions in an over sarcastic way.

I hate the way people passive-aggressively try to position themselves to the front of the queue at the bus stop. Especially in the mornings when it's going to take 5-6 busses before one even stops and then only lets on a handful of people.

People come to the bus stop, see that's packed with people and start off standing at the very edge. Then slowly start positioning themselves closer. As the bus comes over the horizon all bets are off, and they try to put themselves as close to where the doors will open as possible - if there is a big group to the left side, they run to the right - if there is a line going straight back - they try to squeeze in the side.

Drives me mad. 9 times out of 10 it's some old lady or some college kid who, despite just showing up, feels they are more important than everyone else. Naturally, they won't come out and say it, or even just walk to where the bus is going to stop - they try to be as sneaky as possible about it.

When the bus arrives, I walk to the front doors. I think it's a bit dim not to?

I despise passive aggressiveness in people. Someone I know was seriously pissed off at me and when I confronted him he said nothing was wrong and everything was fine, throughout the whole day he'd be subtly dropping sly comments and digs and being reserved, yet everything was fine.

Have a go at me directly like a normal person so we can move on with it or piss the fvck off! :mad:

Was this the guy who told you he loved you and then had to endure you ignoring him for a while?:cool:

Pissy emails sent to the entire office when there was clearly only one intended target. The subject matter is usually beyond trivial and the wording overly formal.

Are you being passive-aggresive about her passive-aggresiveness in a thread about passive-agressiveness?

Where To

I have absolutely no idea what passive aggressive means and I couldn't care less about finding out.

None , People will be nasty when they feel insecure and incomplete , thats they own business , how i react to it , is my business and they have no power over that . when people act like an ass i feel sorry for them becasue they must be feeling bad inside them to carry on like that .

I suggest reading "the 4 agreements " i have it on audiobook , you can pick it up on this new invention , it's called google . LOL

take care
