Same reason as people feel more powerful by being rude on the telephone, theyre just showing their true selves, ignore them, they aint worth the effort

Yes, people can be rude asses, but the trick is to act like you are just thrilled to answer to their every whim.  Before long you will actually enjoy knowing what they need before they need it and most people will tip well for that.  They really just want a friendly/efficient person to make their day a little better.  Just look back on how you like to be treated when out to eat and follow that.

Most people are just stupid I think. That about covers it. They like to assume stuff cuz they like to be upset. But sometimes the questions people ask in that area come really close to being disrespectfull themselves. So it's easy to see how people can get pissed off and say stuff about the asker. Some people aren't smart enough to put their answeres into words that make the asker look like the totall idiot they are, without directly insulting them. So they just insult them instead.  The mere knowledge next to idiocy exposes it for what it is, but not everyone has that.

You will find silly people all through life! People sometimes just have terrible dispositions, and I don't know why! I think that people on here know that you don't know them, and they will never truly have to explain why they act the way they do. Therefore, they can be as rude as they want, and no one will ever know it was them. I don't take the website too seriously, but I respect people, and give honest answers. It would be nice if everyone played fair, but that isn't likely. I hope you have a good day, and try to have fun!

I have never worked in a restaurant, but I once saw this woman being totally rude to the waitress from the moment she sat down.  She did things like snapping her fingers and pointing, blew smoke in her face on purpose, made all kinds of demands, and I saw the waitress "accidentally" trip and spill a tray full of water glasses on her.  I cracked up!

Many are rude because they are teenagers or extremely immature and they think they are sooooooooooo funny by doing it.  Some just put down anything to get points.  I think there are many who have very low self esteem and feel better about themselves by putting someone else down...it is a common thing for such people to do.  Sad, but true.

I have two.\n\nPeople that take shopping carts out to the parking lot at stores and them just give them a shove when they are done unloading the shopping carts into their cars. Hello? How freaking lazy are these people that they cannot walk a few extra feet to put the carts up in the corrals(or whatever they are called)? No wonder Americans are so fat!\n\nPeople that talk in movie theaters drive me insane! One of these days I am going to really lose it and smack the bleep out of one of these movie talkers!

I agree with you.  It actually makes me sad that people think it's cool to be rude, nasty and inconsiderate.  All we can do is keep having good manners ourselves and raise our kids to know the difference and do the right thing.  \nI've noticed that most people don't even seem to know the basic rules of talking to people, I sit and chat with this group of ladies while our kids are in a dance classes.  Everytime two people are talking, someone else interrupts.  Or I'll be talking to someone on the sidewalk, and someone else will just walk up and start talking to whichever one of us they know, they'll walk up and just start their own conversation and totally disregard the fact that two people were already talking.  I would never do that. If I'm walking by and see someone I know engaged in a conversation with someone else I will just wave as I walk by or lightly touch her back, I would never walk up and interrupt the conversatin and disregard the other person.  I could go on about the subject of rudeness for 10 pages, but I better not even get started on the other ways people are rude, like talking on a cell phone while out with friends, being loud in restaurants, and my pet peeve where I live, people who can't clean up after their dogs in our communal areas.

I think this is because some people are just EXTREMLY ARROGANT , IGNORANT,STUBBORN, AND NARROWMINDED.\nI had a simmilar experience, I just ignored them, becuase their words mean nothing to me. DONT LET THOSE STUPID KIDS TRY TO KEEP YOU DOWN, THEY JUST WANT TO SINK YOU GARBAGE DOWN.

Why on earth would you want to be so ignorant and rude. Leave the driving to the drivers, make your journey a pleasure with all of the others, get everyone to join in singing, e g Its a long way to Tiperrary, or "the quarter master stars"  If you you really need to make contact with passing moterist then give them a really big grin or a friendly wave, you will find that you get a nice responce as it also chears up their journey.\nPlease remember the saying " Do unto others as you would have done unto you" \nIt makes life so very much nicer and fun.
