As much as they might hate to admit it, some people can get pretty judgemental. And while a few might tell you exactly as it is, others are likely to keep their comments of disapproval to themselves. Or at least behind your back.
Redditor u/gotwire was curious to find out what’s something people secretly judge others for. They posed the question to the ‘Ask Reddit’ community and received plenty of answers, ranging from disapproving of one’s parenting style to judging people who wouldn’t clean up after their dog. Scroll down to find more of redditors’ replies and see what they simply can’t let slide without a comment—even if only to themselves.

Being over the top with any belief or affilliation they have.
You are a Christian? Cool with me, just don't shove your religion down my throat.
You came out as gay? Good for you. Don't want to hear about it all the time but not really a problem to me.
You like this politician but not the other? Okay, i don't know either of them so don't waste your breath explaining.
Vegan? Interesting choice, won't force you to eat anything you don't want, as long as you don't do the same to me.

Letting their kids roam around and destroying things in stores or restaurants.
Also letting them hurt others physically, it happened to my fiancé when we were at a birthday party, this 8 year old kept hitting him as hard as she could and he didn’t do anything in fear that it would cause drama.

Parents that don’t teach their kids boundaries.
Babsevs 1 year ago
Basically people who don't parent their children at all then.... There are way too many of these about
Monday 1 year ago
I worked with a girl like that. No matter what her son did she'd never reprimand or discipline him because "I don't want him to dislike me". Last time I heard anything from her she was complaining that nobody at her kid's school wanted to be friends with him.....I wonder why.

Parents who don’t teach kids how to react too or touch animals appropriately
Red PANda (she/they) 1 year ago
My little sister doesn’t understand boundaries at all. When I try to explain it to her, she’s just like “why? That’s stupid. It’s just me touching them.” I cut her some slack because she has ADHD and anger issues but it’s very frustrating and I hope she learns soon 😔 I know it’s not really my place to teach her that but as the oldest sister I get worried about her sometimes

Come on, didn't you know that? We bring the children into the world and let the teachers and the Internet take care of them.

Said it loads of times, there should be a "fit and proper" style test for people to determine if they should be allowed to have kids.
Wick E. Scratch 1 year ago
My son (4) knows the boundaries, and is working on handling his emotions when he can't stretch them .... actually, one boundary that we are REALLY trying to get him to work on is paying attention when he is trying to get an adult's attention... when he does post attention, he taps their elbow and waits nicely. When he doesn't pay attention .... well, he doesn't look, and has tapped many boobies unintentionally, which definitely gets their attention ...........

People who wear their mask below their nose.
My f*****g god it's been how many years since we've had to normalize mask wearing and people still can't get it the f**k right? It's not even mandatory to wear now! Just don't wear one!

If you play your music without headphones, you are for sure going to The Bad Place.
#7
Teens that do TikTok dances in the middle of the shopping centre and get pissed when people keep walking in their shots. Like take it outside or do it at home.
#8
Not cleaning up after your dog. If you do this, I believe you to be an a*****e. Cleaning off my shoe, or my kid's shoe, blasts a 15 minute hole in my already crazy busy day, all because you don't want to spend 5 seconds cleaning your dog's s**t. And don't fool yourself that nobody is going to step there. Kids, especially, step everywhere.
#9
When people film s**t and don't help when something bad happens. Like if someone is hurt. Why are you still filming? Help them!
#10
Face tattoos, especially words or phrases.
Not "you must be a criminal" but "You followed a really stupid trend in an effort to seem authentic".
#13
People who can't have a conversation without bringing religion into it... I get it... you think you're being nice by saying your godly pleasantries, but please stop spiritualizing everything.
#15
Giving a sentimental gift to someone and recording their emotional response. Even with permission, it feels like it takes away from the genuine gesture and turns it into something exploitative.
#16
Bad driving. No turn signal, tailgating, treating the drive like a race.
#17
Having kids by the dozens and then cry/beg/rant you don't got s**t for them or that you DESERVE for others to step up to take care of YOUR kids. B***h bye.
#18
Hygiene. I had a coworker who pinched a loaf in the stall next to mine (our bathroom only had two stalls). It smelled terrible. When she was finished, she left without washing her hands and went straight to the break room fridge. She started touching and moving things around in there. From then on, I never put my food in the fridge and just kept it in an insulated bag at my desk. F*ck that s**t. Nasty people!
#20
When people do good for others and video it to put online. I get that Aristotle says that the greatest good is a good that helps both parties.. but it doesn't sit well with me. In my experience, those who go out of their way to showcase how much a good person they are, are rarely a good person once you scratch past the thin mask.

People who litter are as trashy as they come. I’m not secret about it though.

What they name their kids.

If it’s a normal name with a weird spelling, I’m judging so hard.

Talking on the phone in public, while being obnoxiously loud then bi**hing at everyone else for “violating their privacy”.
#27
People who make fun of those who mispronounce something. You never know a person's history. Maybe they learned that word reading. Maybe English isn’t their first language. Maybe …
#28
If you drive a big, loud a*s truck. It kills me. They sound like they're really going fast and then you look and they're going 12 mph.

Talking about their Religion like they are better than everyone else just for believing in it.

Daily selfies. Makes me cringe. Okay, we get it, you think you look cute….again.
#32
Not being able to be on time. I don’t mean running late every once in a while. I’m talking about people who literally cannot bring themselves to be on time ever for anything. Get up earlier, set a timer, do something to fix it, or stop apologizing for being late because you clearly aren’t sorry. ETA I have ADHD. Being on time is important to me because if I didn’t prioritize it, I’d be late all the time. You’re allowed to be offended by being judged for it, but people are also allowed to be frustrated by you always being late. Trying to manage symptoms is part of having a healthier relationship with yourself and your disorders, especially if you expect people to empathize with them. I don’t openly shame people for being late, which is why this was my answer to “secretly judging,” but neurotypical or not, when a person is consistently late and makes no changes to better the situation, it’s extremely frustrating for and hurts the people around them.

Walking a dog without a leash outside of the designated areas, also, if you can not control your dog when it's off the leash in the designated areas, don't take it off the leash.
Doesn't matter what the size, breed, or temperament of your dog is. If you don't understand why, or still think it doesn't apply to you, you don't deserve a dog.
#36
I don't like people who don't return their shopping carts, but I never say anything...
#37
Those who feel superior to others when they don't indulge in junk food or television.
#38
People obsessed with getting married and planning their life around it. They judge me for not wanting to get married and have kids and I judge them for the opposite.
#39
Older people when they can’t control their anger. 30+ and unable to control your anger: throw fits, regularly get visibly angry, no coping skills, etc.
Yeah, I’m judging you. Grow up.

Having their buttcrack out.
A little slip is fine if you realize immediately and then pull your pants up, but if you’re sitting at a table with several inches out for an extended period of time…how do you not feel the breeze going through that canyon??
#41
The attention seekers on Facebook that post things like : (google maps screen shot of the local hospital) “well that was crazy!” And then they just watch the likes and the comments pour in, but they don’t respond to anything or give any details as to what happened.

Anyone with an of the mostly right wing stickers on their car. These stickers include but are not limited to: molon labe, thin blue line, punisher, Calvin pissing on anything, let's go brandon, #FJBLGB (that was a new one to me the other day), or 3%er. You get the idea.

If their cat is an "outside cat". More likely to die early by getting hit by a car, eaten by a predator, or catching a disease or parasite. Also very harmful to the bird population.

Making politics a core part of their identity.
Secret because getting into a conversation about it with those types is utterly exhausting and I'd rather avoid it.

While I think people should do whatever they want to as long as it doesn't negatively impact anyone else (bad parking, listing to music in public without earbuds, etc.), I secretly judge people who get pets from breeders. Yes, I know people always have some excuse about allergies, or having always wanted x and such breed since they were a little kid, but there are soooooo many animals in shelters in need of homes.

Anyone with a pet hate. Whether that hate is their mother, meat eaters, microplastics, coal, their sister, a government department, a politician, whites, males, the circus. I'm automatically judgemental of anyone who's whole life revolves around hatred.
