What's The Rudest Thing You've Witnessed Or Heard About?
I can be as rude as the next person when it's justified, but the things some people do or say just amaze me. I'm not talking door slamming or a failure to say thanks though that's annoying enough. Some people take it to the next level.
*One time on the London Underground, the carriage was full of people sitting, and a few standing. One man had his backpack on the seat beside him, but the standing people didn't seem bothered. At the next stop, an elderly gentleman got on, walked over and politely asked backpack guy if he would move his bag. "Fvck off and die" was the loud answer. To everyone elses credit, the place erupted and the guy was lambasted. The elderly gent got a seat, but it still grates on me that he had to hear that.
*I was sitting in the garden patio of a restaurant with a friend having Sunday brunch when a man sat at the next table with two small children. After a few minutes, he put his baby on the table and changed his dirty nappy, as people ate all around him, piling up the used wipes on a side plate, loudly blaming his 'bitch of a wife not cleaning the kid up' before he took them out. It put everyone off eggs in more ways than one.
*A few months ago I saw the local police pull a man out of a supermarket, protesting. The gist of his protest was that he was going to pay for the bottle of booze down his pants leg, he just forgot. He spat copiously and directly into one of the cops faces, hurling racial abuse at him. My stomach turned. At that point I decided that whatever cops are paid, it's not nearly enough.
*During a long haul flight a gentleman kept calling the flight attendant and complaining about legroom. Obviously he was hoping for an upgrade to shut him up, but he wasn't getting it. The next time she was walking past his seat, he stuck a foot out to trip her up, but she managed to break the fall. Then he called her an ugly, stupid, ignorant bitch at the top of his voice. Warnings were given, but he didn't seem bothered. He had a wedding ring on, so someone puts up with that all the time.
*Driving home at about 10pm, I passed three guys pi$sing into a convertible with the hood down outside a late night shop. I pulled over a little further away to call the cops but they'd run off by the time I even pulled out the phone. I told the driver when he came out and gave my details but never heard anything. A perfect storm of jealousy, opportunity, spite, and full bladders.
*On another flight, a large and angry woman was furious with her seat-mate for objecting to being used as a pillow for a nap. Cue outrageous insults from the woman, including hoping she'd die from a$s cancer, her kids would burn to death, and interestingly, that her husband die in a brothel. Death all round, no exceptions, no second chances.
Any tales of rude and obnoxious behaviour to top these?
