You get kind, considerate, and decent human beings. And then you get those other types. You know the ones...
They live with the firm belief that the world revolves around them. Rules don't apply to them, common courtesy is a foreign concept, and Main Character Syndrome is the name of the game.
In short: they're SELFISH and downright INCONSIDERATE.
They aren't just annoying and infuriating. They're the perfect examples of how not to behave in public. Or behind closed doors, for that matter. They're the Karens and Kevins of the world. The chronic, unrepenting queue-cutters, the blaring-speakers-in-public-places peeps, the what's-mine-is-mine-and-what's-yours-is-mine Mikes and Marys that make life miserable for others.
These folk whip through the world like a tornado, leaving a trail of frustration in their wake. Often, they see nothing wrong with their behavior because, as far as they're concerned, they're entitled to act as they please. But we are here to set things straight.
Bored Panda has put together a list of pictures parading the people who have put us in a pandemic of selfishness. Because while we couldn't stop them at the time of the crime, we'll be damned if we don't shame them online. So buckle up and keep scrolling. Prepare to be blown away by the oblivious, self-centered beings who are, quite frankly, stealing oxygen from the rest of mankind...
We also explore why some people act with the consideration of a cockroach. You'll find that info between the images.
#1 This Is The One Thing I Am Most Worried About Before Getting On A Plane
Image credits: Addian4
We've all had a selfish moment or two in our lives. Maybe we were running late and cut the queue in traffic. Perhaps we forgot to return something we borrowed. Or we interrupted a colleague while they were speaking. It could be that we arrived late and let others wait for us. Whatever the sin, if it was a once-off, and you acknowledge your behavior, all might be forgiven.
But that's not what this listicle is about. Over here, we are talking about the chronic offenders who consistently operate without a care in the world for others. The "me first, you never" crowd. Those who lack common decency, common courtesy, and common sense when it comes to living in a world inhabited by more than 8 billion other people.
Why is it that some of us understand that it's not always all about us, while the bad apples simply don't get it?

“Inconsiderate behavior is when people do or say things that lack regard for others’ feelings or wishes or even their rights,” says Natalie Dattilo, PhD, a clinical psychologist and instructor at Harvard Medical School in Boston.
Whether it's leaving a messy house for your roommates to clean, having a loud conversation when someone needs quiet, or belittling a friend’s opinions, inconsiderate behavior is everywhere.
There are several reasons certain people might act this way. One of them is a basic lack of empathy, meaning they just don’t understand or appreciate the impact of their actions on others. Their self-centeredness and heightened focus on their own personal needs or desires cause them to disregard the feelings and perspectives of others.

#5 “The American Laziness Epidemic” Is Always On Display At Walmart
It makes me furious to see the amount of lazy and inconsiderate people throughout the USA. I’ll admit that my anger definitely stems from my past experiences of working at a grocery store and having to collect the carts from around the parking lot. Seeing these carts sit just a few feet away from a cart corral just infuriates me to almost no end. I truly believe if you leave the cart in the middle of the parking lot, you’re just as bad as a litter-bug. It’s more work to hop the curb with the cart and throw it into the mulch. The customers that complain “not enough carts” are the same ones who just leave it out in the parking lot. I often find myself collecting the carts and putting them in the corrals just because I know the pain collecting the carts. One of the most dangerous jobs at a grocery store is cart collection. Don’t even get me started on the weather factors (especially in the deep south). Please just put your cart in the corrals.

Sometimes this Main Character Syndrome develops during adulthood. Other times, it's been there since these folks were little kids.
"Early interactions with caregivers and friends influence how much we prioritize others' needs," explains the Berkeley Well-Being Institute. "For example, if we were around adults who were inconsiderate or selfish, we tend to adopt these behavioral patterns in our own lives."
In other cases, cultural or environmental factors can also play a role if the person comes from a background where entitlement or selfishness is the societal norm.
#7 Just Why?
Okay and I seen that the dude was doing doordash. I wouldn’t have posted this if it was someone who is disabled. I literally went in and ate right after this. I seen the dude in the car, then he came in while I was eating to get the food he was waiting for.

A traumatic childhood can also cause someone to become self-centered, selfish, and inconsiderate. Survivors may develop unhealthy coping mechanisms and find it challenging to be considerate of others.
Of course, mental health issues can also play a big part. "Bipolar disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, antisocial personality disorder, or autism spectrum disorder can also contribute to an inability to put oneself in someone else’s shoes," explain the experts at everydayhealth.com. "When someone (especially a stranger) behaves rudely, it may be due to psychological factors we know nothing about."

#11 Inconsiderate Neighbors
We live in a 2-story home. The first-floor neighbors use the front door, and we use the back door. They leave their front entrance like this, and the back basically the same... With boxes, brooms, and shoes. When we moved in, I thought it was super unfair that we had to use the back door only, and they have their stuff EVERY FREAKING WHERE. Anyway, does anyone know if this is illegal or a fire hazard? How should I bring it up to my landlord? We both have kids under 2.

#12 Alright, I’m Done Being Nice
Posted earlier this year about my nightmare neighbors - the ones who constantly park in front of my driveway, take up all the street parking in front of my house, use trash cans to save their parking spots, and even threatened to catch my cat ( and do who knows what to it ) because they claim it’s been p***ing in their yard. They couldn’t even describe the cat, and there are at least five different cats roaming the neighborhood.
This past weekend, they took things to a new level and installed these obnoxiously bright floodlights - one in the front yard and another in the back - with the back one aimed directly into my yard.
I’ve owned this home for about 9 months now; they’ve been renting here for over 15 years and act like they own the block. I’ve officially had it with their inconsiderate, passive-aggressive nonsense. So, I’m here for suggestions. Hit me with your pettiest, most vile (but legal) ideas to make them realize I’m not the one to mess with. Here’s a pic of the lights for reference.

The Berkeley Well-Being Institute adds that stress and external pressures can also contribute to inconsiderate behavior.
"When we’re overwhelmed by our own challenges, we tend to neglect the needs of others," notes the site, explaining that research shows that people behave more selfishly and less pro-socially when they’re stressed or anxious.

Sometimes, inconsiderateness comes down to basic insecurity.
“When individuals feel insecure or have a lack of self-confidence, they may use inconsiderate behaviors as a defense mechanism or as a way to cope with their insecurities,” explains Natalie Jambazian, a licensed marriage and family therapist in Sherman Oaks, California.

She wouldn't wake up. Not even for her friend trying to wake her up. I suppose I could have grabbed her feet and moved them. But that wouldn't have been very mature either. It's called common decency. You don't take up a whole bench on the subway just because you're tired. It isn't your bed.

Apart from shaming people online, how can we deal with the inconsiderate behavior of others?
According to Dattilo, if the person is a stranger, it's best to just let it slide. "Just brush off their rudeness, realize it’s not about you, and focus on being the best version of you possible," suggests the expert. "No need to comment, remark, or reply."
Of course, if the inconsiderate person is someone you know, you might want to handle things differently. "Start by communicating with them how their behavior makes you feel," Datillo advises. "For example, 'When you play loud music while I’m trying to work, I feel frustrated, and it makes me think you don’t care about my needs or my career.'"

Stay calm and be honest, adds Jambazian. “Do not react—instead respond,” she suggests. “Try not to raise your voice or get defensive, and respond with a lower tone of voice using I statements. For example, ‘I hear you’ or ‘I feel disrespected when you use those words.’”
If you're lucky, the other person may not have even realized how their actions affect you. And if you're very lucky, they'll change and do better.

“Your approach should be focused on maintaining your own well-being while fostering constructive communication and, when possible, encouraging positive change in inconsiderate individuals,” advises Jambazian.
At the end of the day, we can't control how other people behave. We can only control how we respond and to what extent we allow these inconsiderate people to affect our lives.

#26 My Landlord Took Away The Bed And Mattress That Were Provided In The "Furnished" Rental And Replaced It With This Thing Which Is Really Hard To Sleep On
I live in Ontario and here if you share a kitchen/bathroom with the person you are paying rent to, they are not obliged to sign a lease agreement and you do not have many protections under the tenancy act. Therefore, we do not have a legally binding lease. However, in the text messages when I first contacted the person for the room, he mentioned that the bed is included and also had it shown in the pictures and as part of the furniture provided. It is kind of a grey area but there is nothing I can do, not even legally. Luckily I am only there for one more month before I move.

About 15 minutes after the performance resumed, I tapped the back of his seat with my hand. He turns around and asks "Was that for me?" I reply "Yes, you're being rude."

They would cut in front of a line of 10 people, saying “those are my friends up there.” They each would do multiple rounds of pictures, solo pictures, group pictures, redo pictures, and so on. After 30 minutes, the line had grown to 100+ people, and people in line were really getting upset and confrontational. They finally finished up, but this one guy stuck around and refused to move so others could take their picture.

I work at a thrift store and we had about 10 paintings coming in all really beautifully done, the frames where also very neat. I fell in love with this one in the photo but someone else had to price it before i could buy it so i ended up waiting until the end of the day to see if they got priced yet. My workday was almost over so i decided to walk to the back to see if the painting was priced yet and lo and behold, 10 painting in the trashcan. And not just in the trash can, my coworker stabbed them with a scissor. She smashed up the frames from the other paintings too and did the same to the art. I asked her why she did that and she just said "they never sell in store" while ive seen plenty of painting leaving the store for good prices and if we cant sell them we always end up using them for our own creative projects.
I of course went to my supervisor and he said he would have a word with her but i was absolutely furious, i cant stop looking at the painting and how beautiful it was. I also feel bad for the person/artist that donated the paintings thinking they would get a loving new home.

#68 My Mom Keeps Opening My Mail Even After I Told Her To Stop
Me and my friends from out of state made Amazon wishlists to buy Christmas gifts for each other. I woke up today to my mom scolding me for buying more stuff online (I'm trying to save for a car). I had no idea what she was talking about as I hadn't ordered anything. She shows me the items she unboxed and I recognized them as things from my wishlist. The picture is how she left it on the table. My friends and I had planned on doing a group unwrapping call over Discord as soon as we'd all gotten our gifts so we could watch each other open stuff.
This isn't the first time my mom has opened packages of mine, but I was especially upset because she'd ruined the surprise. She got mad whenever I told her again to stop opening my mail, claiming “she doesn't check the labels on every single package that comes in.” I told her she should, since there was more than one person living here, and she got even more mad.
I'm 21 and live in family of 6 (myself included), so the fact that she doesn't check the labels is nonsense. I'm only still living with her because rent is extremely expensive and, as stated before, I'm trying to buy a car first. I'd get a P.O. Box, but I really can't afford it right now. Does anyone know what I can do to improve this situation?

#69 Roommate’s Boyfriend Moved In, And The Hallway Is Becoming An Extension Of Their Bedroom
Moved into a 4-bed in BedStuy, NYC, and have had no issues with anyone until one (22F)roommate’s boyfriend moved in with us. She never spoke to any of us about it. I can empathize with someone who needs a place to stay, but it felt very inconsiderate for her to not even mention at all.
My main issue is that between the two of them, they probably own 50+ pairs of shoes. Our very narrow hallway is becoming an extension of their bedroom, and every pair of shoes you see belongs to the two of them. The black dresser is full of shoes. The wall cubby, too.
I want to tell them to find space in their room or get rid of shoes. My bedroom door opens right up to their black dresser, and their shoes are on both sides of my door now. Am I making a mountain out of a molehill, or should they be more considerate of common space?

We live in a pretty trash neighborhood, and we don't care about our yard 99% of the time, and if they had just said "hey, do you mind if we use your yard to back up," I would've said "hell yeah, man, go for it" but they never said anything. Just made awkward eye contact through my front window as they spun out because it's been raining for 2 weeks straight. They did this for 3 days in row.
On the third day my husband went out to try and stamp down the ruts so the landlord won't get mad and they yelled out "sorry about that but it's just grass!". My husband responded "it's not just grass, it's my yard!" and that was pretty much it. Haven't seen them drive up again yet but we'll see.
