Thanks all.

What practice/beliefs make you instantly lose respect for someone?

    Leaving your tray and rubbish on the table in a fast food place for others to clean up when the bin is 10ft away, usually accompanied with ‘but it’s their job’, have some respect for others.

    I hold doors for all - men, women (not a patriarchal oppressor) and children. A simple "thank you" generally suffices. Entitled cases don't acknowledge.

    I was in a restaurant, Linnanes in Newquay co Clare actually and some entitled lady actually closed the door behind her, knowing myself and my girlfriend were right behind her.

    So my partner is very well spoken and has that church of Ireland disposition.

    Said lady sat down with her sugar daddy, my partner basically walked over to the so called lady and put it nicely to her.

    Ironically the sugar daddy knew my partner well as he is great friends with my partner's dad.
    Made it all the better

    They're from the South side in the Dublin Wicklow border.
    Anyhow he was mortified his madam was so rude and aloof to people.

    Of all places to bump into someone from year's ago.

    Your wan was mortified and sat like a bunny rabbit in head lights.

    We looked quite rough after hill walking,as we were wearing muddy boot's and looked like drowned rats lol

    Be careful who you're closing the door to :D

    People who don’t have respect for those who put animals and the environment before their gut. Bizarre. I think it should be commended and more of us should get on board.

    People who think it’s funny to get their kids to say swear words.
    Overly arrogant or aggressive people. People who don’t have a mind of their own and are afraid to stand up for what they believe in.

    Overly religious people. I have no problem with people following their religion but there’s s limit especially if religion comes before everything else/family and/or going to mass more than 5 times a week and absolutely if you are so fcuked up you think you need to go more than once a day...you would not believe how many people are that messed up!

    If I think you're an essentially good person then I wouldn't just lose respect and small things are just quirks. .

    A herd mentality and strict conformism are two things that repel me. So does trying to be a rebel or shock people for fun. Being snobby (including inverted snobbery), having no patience or understanding for people who need it, spiteful gossiping and genuine racism I don't understand and can't live with .


    I don't mind about religious beliefs if you're not embodying the worst aspects of a religion and you live by your own principles first ..

    Attempting to push me into something I said no to . Or doing it to anyone . Particularly using words like ''but mary does it (drives the group somewhere after drinking ) ''.

    Volkswagen Golf drivers.

    Fcukers driving in bus lanes.

    Fcukers driving into yellow boxes

    Fcukers breaking red lights

    You do know you can drive into the yellow box when turning right, just in case it was you behind me earlier... Don't drive a golf.

    Unemployable or generally lazy scatterbrained people who insist smoking weed is good for them and less harmful than alcohol.

    Most people grow out of smoking by their mid 20's. Of anyone older than that I know I only know one daily smoker you'd regard as successful and mentally together.

    People with zero empathy
    People that take pride in being horrible to kids and animals
    People that think the world owes them a favour and refuse to do anything to help themselves.

    The zero empathy one is the worst though, It disturbs me.
