    How can you be sure she's not a psychic or something and reading your mind while you answer?

    Next time, don't imagine her in the nip. Or do, if you think you've a chance.

    Those Finish, think they're great with their fjords and ice hotels and hot babes. Back to Scandanavia with ye and leave our sentences alone.

    If she could help with your punctuation and maybe space your sentences a bit she'd be a treasure.

    A latino you say........

    Tan skinned, deep brown eyes.......

    Ask her if she'd like to go on a date, then answer it for her by saying yeah at the end.

    Make her pay though.

    Call her out on it.
    It's incredibly rude, but she probably doesn't realise she's doing it.

    Aaaargh I know someone who does this. And she always ALWAYS guesses wrong.

    When I wash Sentences, I use Aldi's own brand, not Finish.

    I'd try some petty name calling, failing that I'd go for a drop kick from behind

    Good Luck :)

    Rearrange your answer so the end is at the start and then mock her for failing to beat you to the punch. You might end up sounding like Yoda but you'll win so who cares?

    Ha! Good comeback! :D

    In all honesty though sfw I think it's just her way of letting you know she's listening to you by giving you feedback as such. Remember when you were in school and teachers used never finish their sentences in the hope that somebody besides johnny lickàrse up the front would finish their sentence and let them know somebody else was paying attention to what they were saying! Ahh manys the awkward moment when the whole class would blank stare in unison... :D

    When she does it, tell her she's wrong.

    Every single time.

    It'll bug the shyte out of her.

    Start trying to finish her questions, make it a sort of game. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,633 ✭✭✭TheBody


    Have you tried punching her in the face?

    Yeah, do this and if you get locked up, don't worry about it, sure she'll finish your sentence for ya.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,065 ✭✭✭Fighting Irish


    The worst are the people who try to finish your sentence and get it totally wrong


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,324 ✭✭✭BillyMitchel


    She dying for a ride, ask her for a quickie in the toilet. It's lunch time so now is your chance. Tell her you'll make her a cup of tea when you're finished.

    I am always finishing people's sentences but I get it right about 100% of the time. I thought it endeared me to people because the most frequent words I hear in a conversation are: 'yes' and/or 'exactly'

    people who don't like people who finish their sentences are ego maniacs with low self esteem. they want to be heard and people who steal their moment be damned.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,992 ✭✭✭DavyD_83


    Some people need their sentences finished for them. Are you one of those people OP?
    The kind who answers the question in the first 3 words, but then very slowly keeps extending the sentenmce without adding any new information.

    example:
    Q: have you checked 'blah blah blah...... ' and is it ok?
    A: Yep, I checked 'blalh, blah, blah....' and found that it was correct because yada yada yada.

    Yes, would have sufficed; particularly annoying when you're really busy and just want a quick answer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,639 ✭✭✭✭OldGoat

    ... so annoying when someone else comes along and steals the end of your sentence.

    Can't be as annoying as when you've been telling a story and some dope rushes in and steals the punchline, making a hames of it!
