    1. People with ideals and who are true to those ideals
    2. People that realise that some things are still sacred and shouldn't be messed with
    3. People with an incredible sense of humor and make me piss my pants
    4. People that break free from their past
    5. People that appreciate the effort you put into everything you do
  • ~~ People who lift the toilet seat to pee (or just don't pee all over it), or wipe it down if they got some on there

    ~~ People who don't stand obliviously in doorways or in the middle of the sidewalk or an aisle making everyone have to maneuver around them

    ~~ People who know how to order instead of making me ask a million questions back about what size and such

    ~~ People, standing, who move to the back of the bus making room for oncomers

    ~~ People who find my paycheck that fell out of my pocket in the street and return it to my house (this happened, thank you nice young girl)
  • People who understand that what's important to them may not be important to every or even anyone else.

    People who treat people the way they want to be treated themselves.

    People who ask how a person is and actually waits for an answer.

    People who treat animals with respect.

    People who volunteer to move their seat on a crowded airplane (or bus) so that a parent can sit with their child.
  • 1) People that clean up after themselves and arent oblivious to the fact that someone else has to when they don't

    2) Calm courteous drivers.

    3) People that work in stores that are genuinely friendly just because that's the way they are as opposed to putting on a fake act because it's required by their company policy. ( ei: Safeway / Vons )

    4) People that work their butt off like me at work. May the slackers rott in hell.

    5) People that understand if they are interrupting a conversation that say something like "Excuse me but I can I interrupt you guys for a second." Then say what they need to say and let us resume our conversation. I hate when I'm talking to someone and if another person comes up and just ends the current conversation the first person I'm talking to just starts talking to the other person. I call people on that shit now. I'll say something like "Oh. I guess our conversation is over now?" Also I like when people don't feel like they have to dominate a conversation. Like whatever I'm saying isnt important and they are just waiting till it's their turn to blabber on and on about things I dont give a damn about. I also appreciate when people talk at a realistic volume. I hate when they talk really loud seemingly to get attention. Especially in the office or on the cellphone in public. But anywhere really. People that arent obnoxiously LOUD are great. Save it for the argument with your spouse or yelling at your kids or a rock concert but keep your loud irritating bs out of my f_____ face!!!! : )

    6) I also appreciate people that dont assume just because I may have a serious look on my face because I'm in deep thought about the 100 things I'm doing and trying to prioritize what is most important to do next or just trying to think ( my job actually requires me to think ) that don't walk up and assume I'm upset and say stupid shit like "Oh what's wrong? Don't be upset. Smile. Cheer up." I'm like "You know what?!!!! Go away and walk around the building all day talking to everyone and collect your paycheck. Go pretend to work. Go put on your 2 hours and sit around for the other 6 while I go full speed ahead for the full 8. Go fuck yourself!!!!! Can you tell I hate the slackers. I'm really pissed that management either doesnt see it or sees it and doesnt do anything about it and practices favoritism. This is actually the case sometimes. So much less would be expected of me and I could get away with so much more if I werent a white male. Apparently titts are still a factor in todays workplace even though technically, per company ethics policy training & rules this should be the case. But apparently if you have nice titts you can come in late every day. Take longer lunches. Leave early. Do about 20% of what amount of work other people are expected to do. Etc....... I could go on but will spare you. lol
    • 1. People who bother to say thankyou when you hold the door open for them.
      2. People who actually discipline their brats so that they're not under your feet in public places or making an unwelcome racket.
      3. People who pick up their dog's shit after them, those who don't ought to have their noses rubbed in it.
      4. People who bend the rules to do the right thing, as opposed to mindless jobsworths.
      5. People who work in shops that actually acknowledge you as a customer as soon as you approach the counter, rather than continue the conversation they are having while you stand and wait.
  • 1. Those that are aware of 'personal space' - this includes smelling space. Those that cover their mouths when coughing, sneezing and OMG - yawning - so that I don't have to smell their breath are vunderbah! As well as those that don't come and sit on top of me in a public space when there is plenty of room elsewhere.
    2. People that smile at me even when I've got a scowl on my face....snaps me out of it, and show's they aren't taking my look personally (it's not ALL about THEM u know! :P)
    3. People that turn their phones off when in a meeting, at the movies, at a restaurant, on a date etc.
    4. People who take responsibility for their breeding and try not to impinge on everyone else around them. Just because you decide to procreate doesn't mean that you and your larvae are more important or entitled than me or others without anklebiters.
    5. Those that listen to what you're saying instead of waiting for their turn to speak.
