what kind of person annoys you more? (poll thread)

The always muters are fine, it’s the never muters that need to be rolled up in a carpet and thrown off a bridge.

  • Tries to make “how is everyone?” small talk in a video conference with multiple participants before the meeting starts in earnest
  • Silently waits for all participants to join which results in a good 3-5 minutes of pre-meeting video awkwardness

Live for the silent awkwardness rbh.

Edit; that should read “tbh” but actually rbh is a thing I will use now for Really Being Honest

the thing here of course is that loud atheists are angry with you, loud theists are not

would much rather be at a bus stop while someone nearby loudly declares through their amplifier that god loves me than an atheist doing the same with what they think

I can’t imagine the disappointment that follows the excitement of thinking you’re going to imminently be chewing delicious gum only to end up with a sore finger

People on the bus/street holding their phone somewhere between their chest and waist and shouting on a loudspeaker call can join these lot too

It’s definitely both.

Also, to the one about pre-meeting chat, as someone who types a lot of teleconferences I much, much prefer the silence - I don’t want to have to be typing 15 minutes of “Hello, Michael, how’s the family, have you been skiing this year - Oh, Michael’s not on yet, that must be Mark, hi Mark!” only for you to decide that actually, you’d like that redacted but didn’t think to say beforehand. Keep your chat pertinent, people - it’s not awkward, it’s efficient.

I’m this much fun in real life too by the way
