I have found that I secretly judge people for their Christmas tree decorations... Silly, but you can tell a lot about a person's taste by their Christmas tree.
Oh man, I'm guilty of so many of these! We wear pj's on Saturday morning donut runs (but only if DS is with, we don't wear pj's out as adults). We HAVE to have a car cart, but I try to grab one from the parking lot since there aren't many and then we leave it there and walk out.
@ashleymc09 I'm interested in what conclusions you draw!
I judge 4 yo with pacifiers, people who wear pj's when flying (kids exempt), people who only drink cheap beer out of a can, and adult picky eaters. And Pintrest-moms. They make me wonder what baggage they're hiding. I prefer to be honest about my messy life.

Haha I guess I should have been more clear by saying you can tell a lot about someone's personality based on their taste in tree decorations. I think you can tell if someone is sentimental, logical, fun, messy, uptight, easy-going... For example, my mom always has to do something different to her tree every year..seems like last year she either did spray paint a little gold on the branches or maybe she just thought about it.. She's really creative and it shows in her tree every year. I though prefer predictability so my tree has been the same every year. I'm also sentimental so all the ornaments I have mean something to me or were given to me. And then my mom has a friend who is extremely logical and straight-laced and her tree had been decorated for a few years now and she just wraps it in plastic and sticks it in her garage til the next year..
I cant help but judge grammar. Worst ones: there/they're/their and our/are (THAT BURNS MY EYES... THEY'RE NOT EVEN CLOSE TO MEANING THE SAME THING).... see now I'm all worked up
I judge name droppers. I live in la and so many people here name drop about celebrities they know (or claim to know). I know a guy who is good friends with Blake Griffin from the clippers and he can't have a conversation without saying his name at least 5 times. I want to say "I don't think you are cool because you have a famous friend. Can we please talk about something else you tool!"
^ ooooo and well and good, me and I. drives me crazy!!!! Dad did not take Johnny and I to the park. Dad took Johnny and ME to the park. I secretly judge people by what's in their shopping carts. I once saw a guy who only had pre cooked bacon, frozen food, and perky jerky. Hello bachelor!
People, including parents of young children, who wear pajamas outside of the house (babies are exempt lol)
This is me. But, in fairness, I don't actually sleep in pjs, so I don't actually go out in what I slept in. I did, technically, get dressed. Just, in sweatpants.
And I'm in with the grammar freaks. But, I admit to using "its" vs "it's" often because I just can't be bothered to click over to my punctuation keyboard to access the ' and my autocorrect doesn't fix it for me, like it does with isn't, hasn't, didn't, etc.
Here's my original judge (and in all likelihood, someone here does this) - women who get the French tipped paint job on their toes. Seriously? Ya couldn't just pick a color?
Ugh you guys probably hate my posts. Ever since LO came my grammar when posting on here is atrocious. The fact that I have time to post at all negates the fact that it's usually incorrect (I use the speech to text function a lot too). I usually am crazy about grammar and spelling but somehow think the rules don't apply to me anymore

Sorry for the poor man's siggy...ticker won't load regardless of how many tips I read.
^^ i cant decide if voice to text is the best or worst thing ever. On one hand, i can get shit done... on the other 90% of what i say needs to be fixed for grammar or misheard words lol
Omg, I judge so much. I am awful. Here it goes-- loving animals sooo much/eating meat, acrylic nails, having a bunch of kids, Hummers, using "alot"-- yeah, I know.
I judge people who openly judge people. A friend of mine posted something about hitting parents who don't spank their kids and I went judge city. Who are you to judge people like I'm now judging you? Lawd.
@klkonwi Ugh, no socks on my babe this summer! @mellymar Please stop text typing!! Lol It drives me nuts too!
I judge people who use the term baby led weaning. I just want to tell them to get over themselves and quit trying to be trendy. Ugh... I judge people's hair. To be fair, I was a stylist for 10 years before becoming a teacher. I have learned not to judge new moms hair though.
I judge people who overuse their parents as sitters and go out to clubs at night when they're over 35. I'm not talking the once in a while date night people either. This also does not pertain to those who's parents provide daycare. That, I'm jealous of.
I used to judge co sleepers before I became one out of desperation. Lol
@lovethatcolosun my father babysits 2-3 days a week while I'm at work. Never in the evening or night though because he and my stepmom are always out on the town! They have a better social life than DH & I before LO. I used to judge co sleepers too but not anymore. I haven't had to do it too much lately. LO has been falling asleep in her crib much better.
It seems kind of weird to me when parents baby wear an older toddler. I've got a bad back though so even if I wanted to I couldn't baby wear that long. My LO is going to have to learn to be independent as soon as she can. Luckily I can already tell she has a feisty independent spirit anyway. She's not into being held when she can be moving around exploring. Who knows though. We all make do & adapt as we need to.
People who homeschool their children without any type of education degree! Like if any parent can do that then any one should be able to be a surgeon, a lawyer, etc... It makes no sense to me.
I secretly judge people who have had multiple "serious", significant others in a year. I'm talking about the "I just started dating you but I'm calling you the father of my kid, then we break up and within a month I'm dating a new guy and calling him the daddy". Those people irk me so much. Your poor kid is going to be so confused.

This! Everyone do what they want, but I know I'm not smart enough to homeschool my kids. One of my bffs is a kindergarten/1st grade teacher and I'm amazed at all she can do with kids, and I'm like "how do you know all of this?!?!?!?!" And then I remember she has a masters degree in education.
I judge FB dirty laundry airers (but totally love hearing it), kids with bottles & dummies and I super judge people who have rude children.
I cant stand when I see 3 year olds drinking from the same bottle as my newborn daughter was drinking from so much so shes 6 months old now and hasnt had a bottle in 4 weeks. Shes on the sippy cups purely because of my judgemental attitude to children who drink from bottles..
And rude kids. Ohh my, I cant even hide that I judge them. I dont even try to hide it. Why do you think its okay to raise rude children?
Here's one... I judge people on FB who feel like they must have a deep opinion on EVERY single issue. Every event. Every. Thing. Just because you have a platform to share, doesn't mean that you must. I'm not anti free speech. I'm talking about straight up obnoxious people and those who are not educated on the topics they're pontificating about.
I judge people who pierce their kids ears I judge people with tongue rings ( I immediately think " big cock sucker" lol) I judge people with acrylic nails I judge people who can't control their liquor I also judge super religious people ( I'm sorry) it creeps me out.

I'm a bad person, but I'm really good at hiding it. Lol

ETA Fun thread!
Edited bc of autocorrect..

I also judge people who pierce babies ears @ElRuby !
I'm so weird about socks.
I call bullshit on that whole theory.

I judge people who complain about their job on Facebook. It's so unprofessional and I secretly wish their boss would see it.
I secretly judge people who use text type.
c what I mean? U don't even know what I'm sayin. I got 2 go. L8r!

@alcrimmins Isn't it just 'feeding your baby'?
I tend to judge women in my field who can't dress themselves or do their make up in a professional manner. Shallow, I know.
