Have you ever thought about how some people are too comfortable doing some things that might not be good for them, other humans around them, and society in general?
A user asked the forum, “What made you say “Do people actually do this?” Here are the top responses.
STEALING LUNCH
“Stealing someone else’s lunch from the fridge in the company break room.”
PROMISING A CALLBACK
“Job recruiters saying ‘I’ll call you back’ and not calling back, even when they say something like ‘I’ll call you back by Thursday, and I want you to be ready to start working then.'”
PEOPLE CLIMBING INSANE STRUCTURES
“Those videos where people are climbing insane structures without any safety line. I get sweaty palms just watching.”
DOORDASH
“The first time I tried DoorDash and saw all the fees.”
EXPENSIVE RENT
“Browsing apartments for rent on Zillow makes me think, ‘Can people afford any of this?'”
ENJOYING SCRIPTED VIDEOS
“The popularity of the fake/scripted clips/videos. How do people enjoy watching that? I can’t wrap my head around it.”
GOING TO BED WITH SHOES
“Seeing people go to bed with their shoes on.”
HAVING A SECOND CHILD TO TAKE CARE OF A FIRST DISABLED CHILD
“Have a second child when their first one has a lifelong disability, ‘so they can take care of their sibling later in life.’
My jaw hit the floor when I found this one out, but everyone around me acted as if that’s a common thing people do.
Am I the weird one? How can you dictate what your child will do later if it burdens them with something significant? How do you believe it’ll just magically work out? Plus, most of all, no one thought this was selfish and a little crazy?”
CAVE DIVING
“Cave diving or small cave exploring. I get the shakes just thinking about it.”
TOLERATING CORPORATE EXPLOITATION

HOT YOGA
“Hot Yoga. I went once and have questioned the sanity of anyone who went twice.”
FANTASY FOOTBALL
“Fantasy football. I never understood why people get so invested they let it affect their emotions. Like, it’s just football, man.”
LITTERING
“Littering. Your tiny paper wrapper fell, and the wind blew it away? That’s okay. It happens, but throwing a whole bag of your trash out of our car instead of stopping and putting it in any bin (even someone’s bin if it’s reachable), why would you do that?”
NOT WEARING SOCKS
“Not wearing socks, why would you do that? It’s uncomfortable; your feet will sweat more, and you are more prone to fungal infections.”
