Judging others—it’s something that we all do, all the time. Whether we’re aware of it or entirely subconsciously, we’re constantly evaluating and interpreting the world around us. Making comments about people and situations in our heads. Checking how the world conforms to how we imagine it should be like. And frowning upon anyone who litters!

After being prompted to open up by redditor u/supercoliofy, internet users began sharing the things that make them silently judge people. Taking a deep dive into their comments is enlightening: we’ve judged people for similar things; we’ve done some of the things in this list that deserve judgment.

Read on for some silent judgment-gone-loud, upvote the posts you agree with, and drop on by the comment section to share your opinions, dear Pandas. Do bamboo thieves make you angry? Do you think people give other bears more recognition? We’re very interested to hear what makes you silently judge someone.

Bored Panda reached out to Lee Chambers, a Psychologist and Wellbeing Consultant, to talk about why we judge other people, as well as what role this plays in our lives.

"Judging others is something that we as humans do, both consciously and automatically, and there are a number of reasons why we do it. Comically, we are often told as children not to judge others and have stories shared about how judging others can mean we upset them or lose opportunities to see what really lies behind our perception," he told Bored Panda.

Psychologist Lee, the founder of Essentialise Workplace Wellbeing and PhenomGames, revealed to Bored Panda some of the reasons why we judge other people.

"Sometimes, we judge others to feel superior ourselves, finding faults in others, highlighting them, and feeling better about ourselves in the process. Sometimes, we use it to work out where we fit in, recognizing how we want to be, where our aspirations lie, and how we don't want to become," he said.

"Sometimes, it's in response to our own flaws, and we attack others for what we don't like or don't see into ourselves. And on other occasions, it's to fit into a wider group who judge something or someone, and we conform and perform with the same judgment."

According to Lee, being judgmental can be good and it "does have some benefits when used mindfully," however.

"It can help us to set goals, find alignment with our values, it can help us to build the self-awareness of others and it can boost our self-esteem," he told Bored Panda.

"Add to that it can also help us to make positive social choices, and it's understanding how and why we judge that gives us the ability to use it for our benefits instead of escaping our flaws or pulling others down."

Far from everyone makes errors with malicious intent. Quite often, people aren’t even aware that they’re making a mistake. Or they might not think that something that elicits judgment (like parking wrong or being late to meet someone all the friggin’ time) is actually that big of a deal. It’s selfishness and we’ve all got that, just in varying amounts.

We know that being self-aware of our own flaws is difficult. For one, nobody likes thinking that they’re less than perfect. Besides, we don’t have the luxury of seeing our behavior from a different perspective. That’s why it’s important to speak up if you see someone constantly making the same mistakes.

40 People Open Up About What Makes Them Silently Judge People People who talk really loud on the phone in quiet public places.

BlazeHDizzle Report

If you don’t hear any criticism about what you do, then it’s only natural to assume you’re ‘perfect’ and ‘flawless.’ If there’s no feedback, how can we expect someone to learn? Overly selfish people don’t change their ways at the drop of a hat. It takes a series of moments of clarity to get them to think that maybe—just maybe—they might need to rethink some things. However, some individuals find it hard to get past the embarrassment that comes from realizing they’ve been making mistakes.

"We spend a lot of time and effort presenting an ideal version of ourselves to other people. When something happens that contrasts with the image we’ve been projecting—when we say or do something that shows we actually aren’t as graceful or as smart as we’d like people to believe—we feel embarrassed," Vanessa Bohns from Cornell University explained to Bored Panda.

"Discovering you were wrong about something most everyone else around you has long known to be true is one of those moments. In that moment we learn, 'Wait a minute, maybe I haven’t been presenting the image of being smart or worldly that I thought I was presenting all this time,' which is embarrassing."

One powerful way to change for the better is to become kinder, more altruistic, more giving. And there’s an added benefit, too—you’ll become happier while making the world a better place.

Yes. I know that your first instinct is going to be to hit downvote, but please try to read my whole comment and think about it before reflexively acting. I'm seriously losing faith in the sanity of the comments section recently. People need to get this knee-jerk judgemental reaction under control. Large breed dogs are being neutered at way too young an age, and this leads to a lot of problems throughout their lives. These range from growth-plate deformities and long bone abnormalities to long-term behavioural issues. Responsible owners are perfectly capable of preventing pregnancies in their animals wihout having to resort to invasive surgery.

I agree, and also - if you are getting a dog, you are responsible for research on all info there is. Starting from feeding - ending with spaying. But judging owners just by knowing that their pet is not fixed is stupid. There could be many reasons, and that just plain ignorance.

When I adopted my labradoodle, the number one stipulation was that I get her spaying appointment set within two weeks of taking her home. It was in the adoption contract that if I failed to do so, the family I was adopting her from would remove her from my home with no chance of getting her back. All of my dogs and cats are spayed/neutered. It's the only responsible thing to do.

Ok, so, seriously, see no reason in just neuter animals for the sake of it (and it is illegal here to do so without a solid medical reason like a tumour or similar). Neither dogs nor cats should just roam around freely. That's the owners responsibility. Keep your dog on a f*cking leash if you can't train it to stay with you or at least come back at command if unleashed. Keep your cat indoors - and yes, cats can live happy and fullfilled lives indoors - and tell your darn Guinea pig to be home at 8 pm latest - no issue arises. Having a surgical or chemical procedure performed on a perfectly healthy animal for no other reason but your own inability to adequately train or control them is just not okay.

Neutering/spaying too early can have serious side effects, especially in large breed dogs. + every responsible pet owner can prevent unwanted pregnancies other ways. Also it seems it's only the US that has this strong propaganda of spay/neuter has zero side effects. In Europe there's countries where it's literally illegal to spay/neuter without a medical reason, because it's based on actual research. Think with your heads, if you need over a year of consultations and exams to get yourself snipped (male and female), it's obviously not that harmless. Also keep in mind that in cats and dogs, they usually don't just snip them, they take out the entire thing, meaning they take out the organs responsible for most of the hormone creation that is vital for the animal's health and growth. Not to mention that many people screaming about spaying/neutering everything, don't bother to microchip their pets, which is harmless, cheap and takes less than 2 minutes at the vet.

This is something that makes me mad. They even brought in a new law here in Sweden stating that if your cat has outdoor privileges then they need to be spayed/neutered. People ignore that and say things like, they aren't allowed outside but their kid opened the door and they got out. Same people year after year selling kittens after an oopsie pregnancy. I know it's expensive to spay/neuter, almost $170 for a female and $120 for a male but if you can't afford it there are pet charities that pay for it. Every year people let their cats out and then the charities have to find homes for thousands of feral cats. It's absolutely awful

What needs to be done is offer neutering/spaying free. Vet bills are way too expensive as it is. Please don't gouge loving pet owners who want to do the right thing. And for those who will comment that there are programs out there that do help reduce the cost; however, even if you try to be a good samaritan and bring in a feral cat or dog that you have no plan on keeping, you are still charged money to have that animal fixed, even at nonprofits. That further prompts people to not want to spay/neuter stray animals which are the largest source of producing more unwanted/neglected animals.

With my old cat our vet advised us to give her a pill to suppress her heat instead of operation. She almost died from the resulting uterine inflammation. Now my partner and I have a cat we got in the local flea market where the people who can't be bothered to neuter their outdoor cats bring their unwanted pups and kittens. She's and indoor cat but was neutered after her first heat and now she's more calm and content. She also doesn't have to face a bunch of health issues and likely to have a longer life. Around us there are an immense amount of feral and semi-feral cats who just roam around while in theory having owners. They are kept so that those coming to their allotments in the weekend would have a cute little pet to cuddle but during the week they have to fend for themselves. In the springtime all the females start getting rounder and all the males start getting bloodier as they fight each other. And all of them come to our big glass front door to peer in with sad eyes.

We took in one of them last spring, already pregnant. Nursed and rehomed her kittens, then had her neutered and now she's and indoor cat as well, slowly getting over the trauma the pregnancy had on her. She was an incredibly friendly and nice cat before, after giving birth she got really fearful and prone to hiding. But we'll love her back to her old self. And now another beautiful little cat is coming to our door every night, sitting there, looking at the inside cats being all comfy and cared for. I can't take in another one. And my heart is breaking. Every spring/summer Sunday when we go to that flea market I see the long-long row of people standing there with their pet carriers full of innocent little kittens and pups, some of their faces I already recognise from last year when they were standing there with the previous litter.

This is so important, I think that it should be the law to have pets spayed/neutered unless the animal is going to a licensed breeder who is capable of looking after the animals whilst dealing with their sexual health. I knew a couple that had a small dog that they were going to breed but because they didn’t like dealing with the mess of the dogs period they then had her spayed which to me was unnecessary strain on the dog due to her age,

All my cats are spayed/ neutered. Neither of my dogs is. I have 1 retired all white stud and his special needs son (german shepherds). My dogs are NEVER off leash and are with me and my husband 24/7. Judge me all you want I am not putting my dogs under for surgery that is not a necessity when I have the time, space and training needed to keep my dogs from breeding. I can not control my cats from occasionally sneaking out the door while I'm moving things around or cleaning out my house but I can with my dogs. If he wasn't special needs (brain damaged from traumatic birth) the son would be neutered. The risks outweigh the benefits for him. He is never more than a few feet from me and is scared of other dogs besides his father. But please judge me while your dog is rummaging through your neighbors trash because your dog walker left the door open.... Downvotes here I come 🤣🤣🤣

YES. there are way to many stray/feral pets to justify not fixing your pet. no, you shouldn't let them have a litter to 'let them experience the joys of being a parent' the animal doesn't care about being a parent. And no matter how much you can control your animal, accidents happen and i don't believe that its worth the risk.

Nope. I'm not gonna put my pet through an invasive procedure just so I won't have to worry for a few weeks once a year. Responsible owners can control their pets even when it's in heat.

Ah yes, all the dumped dogs and cats at shelters thanks you for this imbecilic ideology. Must be so proud of yourself.

In response to the neutering your pets thing: If everybody did that, in the end there would be no pets left.

Why would you do that? I love all my animals never did that, they never mated, why do that?

Because you're not an idiot who would let animals suffer just because they were the result of irresponsible owners not spaying and neutering their pets?

A friend of mine never spayed her cat because it's a clever little b*****d who can successfully avoid any trap she sets. the problem for my friend is this cat is a bit of a prostitute, (no other word for it sorry) and has fallen pregnant 4 times so far. she gave most of the kittens away and has spayed the ones she kept, but has given up trying to spay the first

People who don't take care of their dogs.

I'm not talking about people who don't feed some super premium dog food, or get them groomed every 2 weeks, or even those people who opt to euthanize because they can't afford a 12K surgery.

I'm talking about doing the bare f**king minimum. Take a brush and brush your dog. Find a food that doesn't give him explosive diarrhea every time he has to take a s**t. Give that little turd factory some discipline so he stops trying to maul toddlers when he inevitably dashes out your front door and across the street. For f**ks sake, run your labs and goldens until they're too tired to move any more. A tired dog is a happy dog.

I'm not always silent about it, but people at my local supermarket who refuse to return their shopping carts, but instead leave them to roll into other cars whenever the next wind gust comes along.

The last lady I confronted about this said some bulls**t that was basically blah blah blah my bad back, but she managed to push it all around the store and then fully loaded out to her car, now she suddenly can't push a now-empty cart a few more feet to the return?? Can't stand those people.

Or people who don't use punctuation or at least a damn full stop to break up their god damned sentences. Drives me insane and although I'm not the greatest at punctuation and grammar, I automatically think you're and idiot.

While we are at it I judge people who put too much emphasis on completely arbitrary and nonsensical rules of language grammar. Go have a heart attack correcting Shakespeare who even spelled his own name 5 different ways.

Being involved in an MLM... Scentsy, Essential Oils, It Works!, etc.

It's not that I don't appreciate the fact that they are trying to better themselves. It's that I assume they are really stupid for getting suckered in the first place.

Crass public behaviour, especially while drunk. If you can't handle your alcohol without being a s**t, don't drink. Hate it.
